Internodes of stems and under surface of leaves more or less densely pubescent. 

 Bracts of racemes lanceolate or linear; hairs of inflorescence mostly recurved or 



appressed; calyx canescent, rarely with a few gland-tipped hairs 



8. S. incana. 



Bracts of racemes ovate or oblong-spatulate; hairs of inflorescence spreading and 



mostly glandular; calyx densely pubescent with glandular, spreading hairs. 



Leaves narrowed or rarely truncate at the base, sometimes the lowest leaves 



cordate; blades beneath conspicuously and densely covered with oil glands; 



middle internodes of the stem conspicuously longer; bracts oblong-spatulate. 



9. S. ovalifolia. 



Leaves deeply cordate at the base; blades beneath not conspicuously and densely

1. Scutellaria galericulata L. (Scutellaria epilobiifolia Hamilton ; Fer- 

 nald in Rhodora 23: 85-86. 1921.) Map 1732. Found in marshes about 

 lakes, between dunes, in tamarack bogs, about swamps in woods, and 

 in low borders of dredged ditches. The known specimens of this species 

 restrict its distribution to the lake area of the state. No doubt the 

 report from Clark County should be referred to some other species.

2. Scutellaria nervosa Pursh. Map 1733. Rather frequent in the 

 southern third of the state in moist soil in woodland, becoming rare north- 

 ward, and probably absent from our northern counties. It is found in moist 

 woods of all kinds. I have a white-flowered specimen from Spencer County. 

 I have had it in cultivation for many years, and it is so prolific that each 

 year many seedlings must be weeded out.

3. Scutellaria parvula Michx. Map 1734. My specimens are from dry 

 soil on the top of high wooded banks of streams.
