P. GLAUCA, Schm. Roem. Archiv. i. I, 10. Gentiana glauca, 
Pall.; P. NEWBERRYI. Gentiana Newberryt, A. Gray.; P. 
SETIGERA. G. setigera, A. Gray; P. CALYoosA, G. calycosa, 
Griseb.; P. PARRYI. G. Parry’, Engelm; P. BRACTEOSA. G. brac- 
teosa, Greene; P. PLATYPETALA. G. Platypetala, Griseb; E. 
MENzrESI. G. Mensziesii, Griseb; P. SCEPTRUM. G. sceptrum, 
Griseb; P. OREGANA. G. Oregana, Engelm; P. AFFINIS. G.

INTERRUPTA. G. interrupta, Greene; P. REMOTA. G. remota, 
Greene ; P. PUBERULA. G. puberula, Mx. Dasystephana puberula, 
Small; P. SAPONARIA. Schm. G. Saponaria, L.; D. Saponaria, 
Small. ; 
P. CLAUSA. Gentiana clausa, Raf. Med. F1. i, 210 (1828); G. 
_ Andrewsii, Griseb. Gent. 287 (1839); D. Andrewsii, Small. 
A comparison of the two descriptions, that by Rafinesque in 
English, and the eleven years later one in Latin by Grisebach 
leaves no room for doubt as to the identity of the two. Of the 
two diagnoses, that by Rafinesque is the fuller, and the name 
clausa is the better of the two, besides having the priority. 
P. ocHROLEUCA, Don. G. ochroleuca, Froel. Thisis Dasys- 
tephana villosa TL, Small, under the hypothesis that it may be 
Gentiana villosa L. But names should not be fonnded on sup- 
positions. What G. villosa L. was, or is, no one can tell. 
Nothing answering to the brief account of it exists, in so far 
as can be ascertained; which is enough to discredit the use of 
the name. 
P. LINEARIS, G. linearis, Froél. 
P. FLAVIDA. G. flavida, A. Gray (1846); G. alba, A. Gray 
(1848); formerly supposed to be G. a/éa, Muhl., which is a 
nomen nudum and ought never to have been promulgated. 
P. PUBERULA. G. puberula, Michx. D. puberula, Small; P. 
DECORA. G. decora, Pollard. D. decora, Small; P. PARVIFOLIA. 
Dasystephana parvifolia, Small; P. LATIFOLIA. D. latifotia, 
Small. P. PORPHYRIO. G. Porphyrio, Gmel; D. Porphyrio, 
Small. P. SPATHACEA. G. spathacca, Kunth.
