11. Elidurandia Texan a, n. gen., is Fugosia Drummondii, Gray, PL Wr. 

 1, p. 23. 



12. Linum (Linopsis) San-Sabeanum is Lechea Drummondii '. 



13. Zanthoxylum hirsutum is the Z. CaroJinianum var. PI. Wright, 1, 

 p. 30, No. 81, there discussed by me, and mentioned as Z. coriaceum, Wright, 

 Z. digynum, Engelm., and Z. alveolatum, Shuttleworth ; so that, if a distinct 

 species, (as I suppose it is not), it has names enough already. As to the 

 hairiness, upon which Mr. Buckley's name is founded, some flowering speci- 

 mens of his in Mr. Durand's herbarium demonstrate the slight importance of 

 this character. 



14. Ampelopsis heptaphylla is the same as Fendler's No. 108, viz., a 

 small- leaved state of A. quinque folia, only with some of the leaves 6 7-foliolate. 

 It is also in Wright's earlier, undistributed, Texan collection. 



15. Vitis monticolais V. rupestris, Scheele, (see PI. Lindh. 2, p. 165, 

 and PL Wr. 2, p. 27). 



16. Vitis Linsecomii is what I have always referred to V. Labrusca. 

 The Louisiana specimen (of Dr. Hale) exactly agrees with specimens from the 

 plant which we formerly cultivated in the Cambridge Botanic Garden as Isa- 

 bella Grape. 



17. Vitis Mustangensis (which is not the Mustang Grape of Florida, 

 &c, vide Chapm. S. Flora, p. 71) is the well known V. candicans, Engelmann, 

 (PL Wright 2, p. 32, &c.) ; and V. coriacea of Shuttleworth is a thick-leaved 

 form of it, the V. Caribcea of Chapman ; whether of De Candolle I am still un- 

 certain, but have seen no West Indian specimens which exactly match it. 

 Surely there is some mistake in the statement that "its leaves are neither 

 toothed nor mucronate." It would be more correct to say that they are never 

 entire, and some Texan specimens of Lindheimer, &c, show the glandular 

 mucronations of C. Caribaa. Perhaps the reader should be warned that 

 mustang is not the name of a town or country, (as the termination ensis implies, ) 

 but of a wild horse. 



18. Psoralea palmata is P. cyphocalyx, Gray, PL Lindh. 2, p. 450, coll. 

 No. 593. 



19. Indigofera c i n e r e a, and 20, 1. T e x a n a, are both /. leptosepala, Nutt., 

 common in all collections in that region. The specimens afford no evidence 

 that the former has an annual root, and Mr. Buckley does not appear to know 

 the plant except by these specimens. 



21. Amorpha T e x an a is A. laevigata, Nutt., var. pubescens, Gray, PL Wr. 

 1, p. 49, the same as Wright's and Lindheimer's specimens, the latter from 

 the very same district ; also apparently A. Rocmeriana, Scheele. The pubes- 

 cent forms pass into A. paniculata, Torr. and Gray. 



22. Astragalus Brazoensisis the rare or local A. reflexus, Torr. and Gray, 

 FL, from the district where Diummond discovered it; the legume better de- 

 veloped and more didyrnous than in Drummond's specimens. Its cells are 

 not always " monospermous, " some having ripened two seeds. The keel of 

 the corolla is tipped with purple. 



23. Phaca (Astragalus) cretacea is a form of Astragalus Missouriensis, 

 Nutt., the flowers of which are "sometimes nearly white," but I suppose not 

 ochroleucous. I have not felt at liberty to make a section of the single nearly 

 full-grown legume which the specimens afford; but a closely similar specimen, 

 in an undistributed collection of Mr. Wright from the same district, shows 

 "the lower suture a little introflexed, " just as A. Missouriensis is described 

 in the Flora of North America.
