Chenopodium qlaucum L. 

 ssp. eu-qlaucuro Aellen 



brosioides L. var. anthelminticum (L.) Gray.) Mexican Tea, Stinkweed, 

 Wormseed. Map 861. Specimens with fewer bracts have commonly been 

 referred to this variety whose distribution is distinctly southern. It is prob- 

 ably much less common in the state than the subspecies. 



2. Chenopodium Botrys L. Feather Geranium, Jerusalem Oak. 

 Map 862. Introduced in America. It grows on sandy hills, in open woods, 

 and similar habitats. 



Reported from: Fayette, Franklin, Gibson, Hamilton, Jefferson, Kos- 

 ciusko, La Porte, Marion, Montgomery, Noble, Porter, Posey, St. Joseph, 

 Tippecanoe, and Vigo Counties. 



3. Chenopodium capitatum (L. )Ascherson. (Blitum capitatum L.) 

 Strawberry Blite, Pigweed or Spinach. 



Reported from : Jefferson, Lake, St. Joseph, and Steuben Counties. 

 E. Que. to Alaska, southw. to N. J., Pa., 111., Minn., and in the Rocky Mts.

4. Chenopodium glaucum L. ssp. eu-glaucum Aellen. (Rep. spec. nov. 

 regn. veget. 26: 45. 1929.) Oakleaved Goosefoot, Glaucousleaved Goose- 

 foot. Map 863. The original occurrence of this species in America is not 

 established as certain. Aellen, however, suggests that it is indigenous in 

 salty places in Saskatchewan and Colorado. 



Que. to Alberta, N. Mex. to Va., and Md. 



Reported as C. glaucum L. from : Lake, Monroe, and Tipton Counties. 



5. Chenopodium Berlandieri Moq. ssp. Zschackei (Murr) Zobel. (C 

 album in part, of most American authors, not of L.) Southern White Pig- 

 weed, Woodland Goosefoot, Wood Pigweed. Map 864. This species and 

 the following are characterized by the peculiar alveolar depressions of 

 their seeds, distinguishing them well from other species. The whole 

 group however is quite polymorphic. 



West of Mississippi River to Pacific coast, Canada, and Mexico, but 

 apparently absent in the eastern U. S.
