1908] Fernald,— Plants of northeastern America 93 
New Jersey and Pennsylvania to Virginia. Material in the Gray 
Herbarium shows it to extend northeastward to Nova Scotia and west 
to Michigan. 
SonrpAao polycephala, n. nom. Luthamia floribunda Greene. 
Pittonia, v. 74 (1902), not S. floribunda Phil. Anal. Univ. Chil. xxxvii. 
430 (1894).— This pretty species is quickly distinguished from 5. 
graminifolia, хат. Nuttallii by its tiny involucre (3-3.5 mm. long), 
with very conspicuous appressed deltoid green tips to the bracts. It 
was originally described from southern New Jersey but the writer 
has examined characteristic material from adjacent Pennsylvania. 
Sorrpaco minor (Michx.), n. comb. 8. lanceolata, var. minor 
Michx. Fl. ii. 116 (1803). S. tenuifolia Pursh, Fl. ii. 540 (1814) in 
part. Euthamia minor Greene, Pittonia, v. 78 (1902).— Distin- 
guished from 8. tenuifolia Pursh, which has the flat leaves 2-6 mm. 
wide and the campanulate involucre 2-3 mm. broad, by its almost 
acicular leaves (the middle cauline 1-1.5 mm. wide) and its nearly 
cylindric acute-based involucre only 1-1.5 mm. broad. Best de- 
veloped from Virginia to Florida and Alabama, but said by Professor 
Greene to reach Connecticut. 
Sonrpaao (EuTHAMIA) Moseleyi, n. sp., caule glabro 5-6 dm. alto 
fastigiatim ramoso, ramulis scabris; foliis linearibus vel lineari- 
lanceolatis apice attenuatis 2-3 mm. latis 1-nerviis minute punctatis, 
foliis ramorum minoribus, ramulorum minutis subulatis; capitulis 
plerumque pedicellatis, pedicellis scabris; involucro snbeylindrico 
3-4 mm. longo 1.5-2 mm. lato, bracteis linearibus tenuibus valde 
inequalibus.— Stem glabrous, 5-6 dm. high, fastigiate-branched above 
the middle; branchléts scabrous: leaves linear or linear-lanceolate, 
taper-pointed, 2-3 mm. broad, 1-ribbed, minutely punctate; rameal 
leaves smaller, those of the branchlets reduced to minute subulate 
bracts: heads mostly on scabrous pedicels: involucre subcylindric 
(slender-turbinate in drying), 3-4 mm. long, 1.5-2 mm. broad; its 
very unequal thin bracts linear.— Онто, Oxford Prairie, Erie Co., 
September 5, 1898 (E. L. Moseley). Resembling S. tenuifolia Pursh, 
but without the axillary fascicles of small leaves which usually char- 
acterize that species; the bracts of the branchlets much shorter; the 
heads less glomerulate; and the involucre much smaller and more 
slender, with softer bracts, that of S. tenuifolia being campanulate, 
2-3 mm. thick, with firm oblong bracts.
