reported is because it is inconspicuous except at its flowering time, which 

 is of short duration.

9246. GALINSOGA R. & P. 



1. Galinsoga ciliata (Raf.) Blake. (Rhodora 24: 35. 1922.) (Galin- 

 soga parviflora Cav. var. hispida DC.) QuiCKWEED. Map 2161. This per- 

 nicious weed was first reported in 1911 from Putnam and Ripley Counties. 

 Since that time it has been discovered in several other counties. It is prob- 

 ably found in cultivated fields in every county along the Ohio River. I 

 found it to be a common weed in the park and adjacent lots in Rushville, 

 Rush County, in 1925. This weed will, no doubt, eventually become a pest 

 in all parts of the state. 



Nat. of tropical America; throughout the U. S. and s. Canada, southw. 

 to S. A. 



9253. MADIA Molina 



1. Madia capitata Nutt. This species was found July 21, 1929, by 

 Paul C. Standley on an open bank in Dune Forest at Tremont, Porter 

 County. He says: "About a dozen plants." It is undoubtedly a migrant, 

 but on account of its weedy nature it may become established. 



Weed in waste places from Oreg. to Calif. 



9292. HYMENOPAPPUS L'Hei. 



1. Hymenopappus carolinensis (Lam.) Porter. Map 2162. This 

 species was found first by Blatchley in 1890 in Vigo County on a sandy 

 hillside northeast of the Seventh Street Bridge across Lost Creek. I found 

 it in 1930 in three sandy, fallow fields in Starke County, three miles north 

 and one and a half miles east of North Judson. I also found a colony in 

 this vicinity in an open, sandy woods. It is probably established here. It
