282 Mr. Bentuan’s Review of the Order of Hydrophyllee. 
of some Hydrophyllee, that they are occasionally mixed in herbaria; but the 
slightest examination of the parts of fructification will at once distinguish 
them. 
Since the first sheet of this paper was printed off, the first part of the 
seventh volume of the Journal of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Phila- 
delphia has been received, in which Mr. Nuttall describes, page 111, a new 
Hydrophyllum under the name of H. macrophyllum, discovered by Dr. Short 
in the forests of Kentucky. From his description it appears to me to be 
the same as Douglass H. capitatum; for which it is therefore requested 
Mr. Nuttall’s name may be substituted, as having the priority of publication. 
At the moment of sending the present sheet to press, the first part of the 
fifth volume of the Transactions of the American Philosophical Society of 
Philadelphia has reached us. It contains a paper of Mr. Nuttall’s on the 
Flora of Arkansas territory, with the following new species of Hydrophyllee : 
ELLISIA MicrocaLyx, glabriuscula, decumbens, foliis lyrato-pinnatifidis longe 
petiolatis, laciniis paucis (3—5) lateralibus obliquis inciso-dentatis in- 
termedio trifido obtuso, floribus solitariis minutis. 
ELLISIA RANUNCULACEA, subhirsuta, caule procumbente, foliis pinnatifidis sub- 
quinquelobatis, superioribus tripartitis inciso-dentatis obtusis longe petio- 
latis, racemis secundis paucifloris. 
PHACELIA HIRSUTA, caule erecto ramoso, foliis pinnatifidis superioribus sessili- 
bus, segmentis integriusculis, calycis laciniis linearibus patentibus, corollae 
lobis integris nudis, filamentis basi barbatis. 
PHACELIA GLABRA, erecta, foliis pinnatifidis, superioribus amplexicaulibus cilia- 
tis, segmentis integriusculis, calycis laciniis ovatis, corollz lobis integris 
nudis, filamentis basi barbatis.
