"168 Panicum clandestinum M. 105 b " = Panicitm clandestinum L., as under- 

 stood by modern botanists. 



" 169 Panicum nitidum (microcarpon) M. 105 'b"=Paniciim polyanthes Schiiltes. 



"170 Panicum depauperatum M. 100. " This cover contains the form now rec- 

 ognized as Panicam depauperatum, and also specimens of Panicum lineari- 

 folium Scribn. 



"171 Panicum verrucosum M. 107, 6 " = The form so considered to-day. 



" 172 Panicum dichotomum M. 107 a, b." In this cover are several specimens 

 of Panicum dicltotomniii viride Vasey, the form now considered as true 

 Panicum dichotomum Linn, by common consent. The tall form of Pani- 

 cum lucidum Ashe is also represented, and also several unrecognizable 

 scraps. 



"173 Panicum laxiflorum Lamarck, M. \0^ a," = Panicum barbidatuni Michx. 

 This was publislied by Muhlenberg, Descr. 114. 1817, as Panictim discolor 

 Sprengel. In this cover are also a few scraps of the form generally referred 

 to Panicum pubescens Lam. by recent authors. 



"174 Panicum flexuosum V M. 108 b." This form was published by Muhlen- 

 berg in his Descriptio 115, as Panicum discolor co-species vel varietas major, 

 and is exactly identical with Panicum mattamusketense Ashe, Journ. E. 

 Mitch. Sci. Soc. 15:45. 1898. Ashe's name must, however, be retained as 

 major is preoccupied by Panicum nitidum var. majus Pursh, Fl. Am. Sept. 

 1 : 67. 1814. 



"175 Panicum pubescens M. 109." This cover contains true Panicum scopa- 

 rium Lam. (P. viscidum Ell.), and also several plants erroneously referred 

 by botanists to Panicum pidjescens Lam. 



"176 Panicum melicarium M. 112." This species has previously been referred 

 to Panicum Mans Elliott, but is Sporobolas junceus (Michx.) Kunth. 



" 177 Panicum agrostoides M. 111." This cover contains the form generally 

 referred to Panicum agrostoides Muhl., and also specimens of Panicum 

 elongatum Pursh, not Salisb. 



" 178 Panicum divergens Elliot 358, M. 112, 6" = Panicum cognatum Schultes. 



" 179 Panicum virgatum M. 112." This cover contains several specimens of the 

 form considered to-day as true Panicum virgatum L. and also a specimen of 

 Panicum amarum Ell. 



" 180 Panicum rostratum M. 113, anceps 'M.x.'= Panicum anceps Michx. There 

 is also a specimen of Panicum agrostoides Muhl. in this cover. 



"181 Panicum geniculatum (dichotomiflorum) M. 114 " = A small branched form 

 of P. 2>roliferuni L. 



"182 Panicum capillare L. M. 115a" = The common large panicled form of 

 this species. 



" 183 Panicum capillare minor " = Panicum flexile (Gatt.) Scribn. Mr. Nash' 

 referred the wrong plant to Panicum minus (Muhl.) Nash. The synonymy 

 of this form should be as follows : 



Panicum philadelphicum Bernh. ; Trin. Gram. Pan. 216. 1826, as synonym; 

 Nees, Agrost. Bras. 198. 1829. {Panicum diffusu.m Pursh, Fl. Am. Sept. 



11:68. 1814, not Swartz, 1788; P. cajnllare minus Mnhl. Descr. 124. 1817, not 

 P. pubescens minor Poh\ in Lam. Encycl. 4:272. 1816, nor P. minus Nash, 

 Bui. Torr. Bot. Club, 22 : 421 . 1895. P. capillare flexile Gatt. Tenn. Fl. 94. 1887 ; 

 P. Jlexile (Gatt.) Scribn. Bui. Torr. Bot. Club, 20:416. 1893.) We believe 



1 Bui. Torr. Bot. Club, 1 : 421. 1895.
