these reports should be referred to some other species although we now 

 have two specimens from south of the lake area. One from Jefferson County 

 and another which was collected by Wilson in Hamilton County in 1899 

 now in the herbarium of DePauw University. The books used by the early 

 botanists did not enable them to easily separate this species from those 

 closely allied to it, and that fact may have been responsible for some of the 

 early reports.
