COULTER AND ROSE—NORTH AMERICAN UMBELLIFERAE. 35 
Texas: ‘‘Fort Smith to the Rio Grande,’’ Bigelow, July 22, 1853. 
Mr. E. P. Bicknell based his S. floridana upon the Duval County specimens of Cur- 
tiss (no. 994). This plant appears to be distinct enough, but on account of numerous 
intergrading forms, covering a wide range and frequently associated with true 8S. 
canadensis, We can not separate the two. The floridana forms, extending from Florida 
to Arkansas and eastern Texas and north to North Carolina and Kentucky, seem to 
be associated with dry sandy ground conditions. Among these are the following: 
Coville 92, near Argenta, Ark., July 14, 1887; Rose, in the Green River region of Ken- 
tucky, August 21, 1895; Biltmore Terh. 83408c, near Wrightsville, N.C., July 1, 1897; 
Rose 4167, near Houston, Tex., May 6, 1899. 
{, Sanicula smallii Bicknell, Bull. Torr. Bot. Club 24: 578. L897. 
In habit resembling the simpler forms of iS. canadensis, the mostly 
simple stem being once or twice dichotomously branched; fruit larger, 
5 to 6mm. long (including the bristles), not at all stipitate; styles a 
little longer than the calyx; otherwise as in SN. canadensis. 
Type locality, ‘base of Little Stone Mountain,” Georgia; collected 
by John Wy Small, June L893; type in Herb. Columbia Univ. 
Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, and Tlorida. 
Specimens evanitied: 
TENNESSEE: Along Wolf Creek, Cocke County, Acarney 710, September 2, 1897, 
ALABAMA: Montesano, near Huntsville, Madison County, Pollard & Maxon 377, 
August 1, 1900, 
Grorata: Base of Litthe Stone Mountain, Dekalb County, Small, July 25, 1893. 
Frontpa: Tallahassee, Vash 2362, August 7-9, 1895, 
The only two characters, as given by Mr. Bicknell, which do not break down in 
separating this species from S. canadensis are the longer styles and the fruit not all 
stipitate. As these two characters look toward S. marilandica they suggest that S. 
smallii may possibly be a liybrid of S. canadensis and S. inarilandica, 
5. Sanicula trifoliata Bicknell, Bull. Torr. Bot. Club 22: 359. 1895. 
Fig. 4. 
Similar in habit to S. canadensis; sterile flowers on pedicels 4 to 5 
mm. long: fruit not stipitate, elliptical, 6 to 7mm. long including the 
calyx, which forms a conspicuous beak about as long as the bristles; 
commissural scar very broad; seed-face slightly concave. 
rh . a, . . . 
Cype locality not given, the species being based upon specimens 
from Indiana, Ohio, Connecticut, and Canada; type in Herb, Columbia 
Univ. 
From Maine to Connecticut and west to Ontario, Indiana, and West 
Virginia.

MarixE: Manchester, Scribner, in 1873. 
Vermont: Near Manchester, Wout. Day 854, June 27, 1898,

Wesr Virainra: Quinnimont, Pollard & Mavon 14, August 21, 1899; near Hin- 
ton, Summers County, Morris 961, July 9, 1900. 
Onto: Pittsfield, Lorain County, Ricksecker, July 9, 1894. 
A very distinct species, and differing from all other Eastern forms in its numerous 
oil tubes,
