In hedges and woods: Carolina to Florida. h. June, 
July. v. v. Flowers very small, greenish-white ; 
berries red. I venture to take Cissampelos smilacina 
. asa syn@hym, although Jacquin's figure deviates 1D 
. character very much from tbe present genus ; but as 
I have had the opportunity of seeing the Menispermum 
of the above authors frequently in flower, I am eon- 
‘vinced that all the above synonyma are correct : the 
number of stamina being variable, brings the ge- 
“pus so neat to Menispermum, that T sbould not have - 
taken it from it, if it were not on the authority of 
Willdenow, . :
