erect or ascending, even in fruit, 1-1.5 cm. long, slender; flowers 
yellow, about 1.5 cm. in diameter; spur conic-cylindric, straight, 
obtuse, ascending, about 7 mm. long, shorter than the lower lip ; 
capsule 5-8 mm., in diameter. 
Very abundant..in a small pond between Eustis and Umatilla, 
Lake Co., No. 1970. It formed a belt, a few feet from the shore, 
some I5 feet wide. This is apparently the same as my No. 492 
of the 1894 collection, obtained in a sterile condition at Lake Irma, 
near Eustis. It grew nearer the shore and in shallower water than 
the plant I collected the past summer, so I was enabled to secure the 
lower portions of the plant. The stem crept along the mud at the 
bottom, sending up two kinds of branches, one bearing leaves and 
no bladders, the other the reverse of this. In this respect it is re- 
lated to U. oligosperma, but in that species the stem is free-swim- 
ming ; it also differs much in other particulars. 
Plantago aristata Michx. This plant is just making its appear- 
ance around Eustis, Lake Co., in waste places and orange groves. 
None of it was observed in 1894, and but a few specimens this past 
summer. No. 1828. 
EvpATORIUM ANOMALUM n. sp. 
Whole plant, particularly the branches of the inflorescence, 
pubescent with short appressed rigid hairs. Stem 8-15 dm. tall; 
leaves spreading or ascending, 3—7 cm. long, I—3 cm. broad, ovate 
to ovate-lanceolate, acute at both ends, short-petioled, coarsely 
and irregularly serrate, obscurely 3-nerved ; involucre 5-flowered, 
resinous-dotted, cylindric, 5-6 mm. long, about 2 mm. in diam- 
eter, its 10-12 acute or acutish scales appressed-pubescent, scari- 
ous on the margins, the 5 inner ones linear or linear-lanceolate, 
much exceeded by the pappus, the outer scales much shorter 
than the inner; achenes resinous-dotted. 
Collected at Lloyds, Jefferson Co., at the margin of a low 
woods, No. 2515. Apparently the same plant occurs at Fortress 
Monroe, Va., represented by a specimen in the National Her- 
barium, collected by Dr. Geo. Vasey. 
Its affinity is with £. hyssopifolium, but readily separated from 
any form of that species by its much taller habit, and the broader 
and differently shaped leaves which are coarsely and irregularly 
serrate. %
