Harper : Flora of Middle Georgia 341 



Eupatorium compositi folium Walt, Fl. Car. 199. 1788 



E. coronopifolium Willd. Sp. PL 



In dry fields, Athens, flowering late in October. This is one 

 of its highest and northernmost stations known. 



Solidago brachyphylla Chapm.; T. & G. Fl. N. A. 2: 218. 



1841 



In dry oak woods, Athens, altitude 675 ft. Probably its' 

 northern limit. 



Pluchea petiolata Cass. Diet. Sci. Nat. 42 : 2. 1826 ; Kearney, 



Bull. Torr. Club, 21: 265. 1894 



Mr. Kearney (1. c.) has pointed out the difference between this 

 species and P. camphor at a of the coast. It does not seem to have 

 been reported from Georgia however. I found it in September, 

 1896, in wet woods in the southern part of Athens. 



Filago nivea Small, Bull. Torr. Club, 24: 333. July, 1897 



Evax multicaulis DC. Prodr. 5: 459. 1836. 



Dr. Small has noted the occurrence of this western plant in the 

 vicinity of Stone Mountain. In May, 1896, I found it in a field 

 near Bostwick, in Morgan Co., and a year later in Athens, which 

 is about 50 miles farther east than Stone Mountain. 



Coreopsis grandiflora Hogg ; Sweet, Brit. FL Gard. 2 : //. 175. 



1825-7 



In dry fields, Athens. This is its eastern limit, as far as known. 



Sexecio Smallii Britton, Mem. Torr. Club, 4 : 132. 1893 

 Common in dry fields, Clarke, Oconee and Walton Cos. 



Acanthospermum australe (L.) Kuntze, Rev. Gen. PI. 303. 1891 



According to Dr. Chapman, who examined one of my speci- 

 mens, this tropical weed was first introduced in wool at the 

 Augusta factories. If so it has not spread northward as much as 

 southward. In the fall of 1896 I collected it along one of the 

 railroads in Athens, which seems to be the northernmost point it 

 has reached.
