fields and in low, open, sweet gum, red maple, and beech woods. Also in 

 the southwestern part of the state in pin oak and swamp white oak flats 

 where it is very rare. 



N. S. to Minn., southw. to the Piedmont Plateau. 



12. Viola primulifolia L. Primroseleaf Violet. Map 1444. In moist, 

 black sandy soil on the margins of swamps. Very rare. 



N. B. to Fla. and Tex., also in Ind. 



13. Viola pallens (Banks) Brainerd. Smooth White Violet. Map 

 1445. Local in the lake area in bogs and springy or wet places, usually 

 associated with tamarack or aspen. It is often associated with Viola 

 incognita var. Forbesii which it very much resembles. 



Lab. to Alberta, southw. to S. C, Tenn., and in the mts. to Colo. 



14. Viola blanda Willd. Redstem White Violet. Map 1446. In slight- 

 ly acid soil in sweet gum, red maple, and beech woodland; more rarely in 

 dry ground with beech and oaks. Nieuwland found it growing in moss 

 in a tamarack bog in St. Joseph County. 



This species has been reported frequently from Indiana but no doubt

W. Que. and w. N. E. to Minn., southw. to the mts. of Ga. 



15. Viola incognita Brainerd var. Forbesii Brainerd. Hairy White 

 Violet. Map 1447. Generally in mucky soil on the shady borders of lakes 

 and in bogs and marshes. Very local but in colonies. For the typical 

 species, see list of excluded species. 



Que. to Wis., southw. to Mass. and Tenn. 



16. Viola eriocarpa Schwein. (Viola scabriuscula Schwein.) Stemmed 

 Yellow Violet. Map 1448. Rather frequent in moist, rich woods through-
