Jens Holmboe: Einige neue Formen von Anemone Hepatica ete. 155 
Nom., ed. 2, I, 609 (1840). Ageratum paniculatum Hort. and Eriopappus 
paniculatus Hort. ex Steud., 1. c. Eupatorium rigidum Benth., Pl. Hartw., 
88 (1841), not Sw. Brickellia Hartwegi Gray, Pl. Wright., I, 85 (1852). 
Miller’s Eupatorium paniculatum seems never to have been studied or 
accurately identified. It is evident that Steudel's renaming of the species 
was purely a bibliographical change incident to his compilation, and in- 
volving no personal examination of the plant. Miller's type, collected at 
Vera Cruz, Mexico, by Dr. Houston, is still extant in the herbarium of 
the British Museum of Natural History, and proves to be the plant which 
has for some time been passing under the name of Brickellia Hartwegi 
Gray. There seems no reason why Miller's name should not be restored 
and transferred to the correct genus. Steudel’s purpose in renaming E, 
paniculatum Mill. (1768) was doubtless that he might maintain the better 
known but much later homonym of Schrader (1832), which, however, has 
since proved a synonym of E. microstemon Cass. Link, Enum., II, 306 
(1822), erroneously united under the name Æ. paniculatum the very different 
plants of Miller and Schrader, belonging as we now see to two distinct 
genera, The unwarranted name E. Verae-Crucis still persists in some 
botanical gardens.

Von Jens Holmboe. 
(Ex: Nyt Mag. f. Naturv., XLIV [1906], pp. 357—377, taf. XV.) 
Anemone Hepatlca L. 
a) Durch abweichende Haarkleidung ausgezeichnete Formen. 
f. hirta J. Holmboe, 1. c., p. 359. 
Folia supra dense et patule hirta. 
Háufig an den meisten Orten zusammen mit der gewóhnlichen Form, 
f. ciliata J. Holmboe, l. c., p. 361. — Tab. nostr. XV, Fig. 2—3. 
Pedunculi, petioli et folia subtus parce et adpresse pilosa vel sub- 
glabra. Folia involucri tantum nitide et dense ciliata, ceterum glabra. 
Sepala alba, marginibus coeruleis. Stamina cum antheris alba. 
Diese leicht kennbare Form habe ich auf der niedrigen, silurischen 
Insel Ostó im Christiania-Fjord nach Anweisung von Herrn Stud. Th,

Kiefern bewachsenen Hügel in Gesellschaft von f. rosea Neum.. f. specta-
