with the European species or not. Dr. Beck thinks it 
distinct, and he probably is correct. It has been cultivated 
at the Belfast Botanic Garden, whence also I have specimens. 
DROSERACES. Salisb. 
14. Drosera brevifolia, Ph.—N. Orl. (n. 29.)—8. major ; 
foliis magis petiolatis. Covington, Louisiana.— This is twice 
the size of œ., and approaches D. longifolia ; but the leaves 
are still much broader and cuneate. 
15. D. longifolia, L.—D. intermedia, DC.— D. foliosa, Ell. 
=N. Orl. 1833. 
76. Parnassia Caroliniana, Mich.—. foliis majoribus lati- 
oribus, non raro orbiculari-reniformibus, petalis viridi-pictis, 
nectariis stamina duplo superantibus, polline aurantiaco.— 
N. Orl. 1833.— This differs from the northern species of the 
same name in its considerably larger size, broader and more 
cordate leaves, and especially in the much longer nectaries, 
shorter stamens, and deep orange-coloured pollen. It retains 
these characters in cultivation. May it not be P. grandi- 
folia, DC. ? 
POLYGALEZJE. Juss. 
77. Polygala incarnata, L.—N. Orl. (n. 80.) —St. Louis. 
78. P. fastigiata, Nutt. (according to specimens from the 
author.)—N. Orl. (n. 32.) and 1833. Covington, Louisiana. 
19. P. cuspidata, Hook. and Arn. (not of DC., which is 
P. Timoutoua, Aubl.)— P. cruciata, Nutt. (non Linn.)]— 
N. Orl. (n. 31.) Covington.— Well distinguished from P. 
cruciata, L. (P. brevifolia, Nutt.) by the remarkably cuspi- 
dato-acuminate alæ to the flowers, 
80. P. lutea, L.—N. Orl. (n. 33.) 
81. P. nana, DC.—P. viridescens, Nutt, —N. Orl. (n. 34.) 
Jacksonville, Louisiana. 
82. P. bicolor, Humb. et Kunth, Nov. Gen. v. v. P- 394. 
t. 507.—N. Orl. 1833.— This, though coming nearest to P. 
verticillata, is quite different. The root is perennial; stems 
a foot and a half and more high; the verticillate leaves are 
obovato-lanceolate, pellucido-punctate, the upper and alter-
