1044 Excluded Species 



campestris, on the basis of a specimen collected by Umbach in ballast near 

 Aetna, Lake County. Peattie and Pepoon also reported it and probably 

 both reports are based upon material from this locality. I am now referring 

 my Umbach specimen to Froelichia campestris. 



Coastal Plain, Ga. to Fla. and westw. to Miss. ; adventive in Del. 



208. Gomphrena globosa L. Globe-amaranth. This species was re- 

 ported without any data from Monroe County by Andrews. It is grown 

 frequently in gardens as an "everlasting" flower and this report is no 

 doubt based upon a chance escape. Reported as an escape in the Gulf 

 States and southward. 



Nat. of s. Asia. 



209. Mirabilis Jalapa L. Common Four-o'Clock. Reported in 1914 

 by Nieuwland as found near old dump piles south of South Bend, St. 

 Joseph County. In 1922, I found several fine plants on a dump along Big 

 Vermilion River about a half mile northwest of Eugene, Vermillion 

 County. I regard these reports as of waifs and wait until it is reported 

 to be self-sustaining before I consider it part of our flora. 



W. Tex., Mex., Cent. Amer., southw. through tropical S. A. Widely 

 cultivated and probably naturalized in some of our southern states. 



210. Oxybaphus albidus (Walt.) Sweet. (Allionia albida Walt, of 

 Britton and Brown, Ulus. Flora, ed. 2.) Peattie reports this species as found 

 "along railroad tracks, Michigan City". I have not seen his specimen and 

 I do not deem it wise to report a single railroad migrant as a part of our 

 flora. 



S. C. to Tenn. and Kans., southw. to Fla. and Tex. 



211. Oxybaphus hirsutus (Pursh) Sweet. (Allionia hirsuta Pursh of 

 Britton and Brown, Illus. Flora, ed. 2.) This species was reported by 

 Coulter for Jenkins as found in Wabash County. This was, no doubt, a 

 migrant and since there are no additional reports, we should regard the 

 species as not yet established in this state. 



Wis. to Man. and Wyo., southw. to Mo., Tex., and N. Mex. 



212. Oxybaphus linearis (Pursh) Robinson. {Allionia linearis Pursh 

 of Britton and Brown, Illus. Flora, ed. 2.) Reported in 1902 by Dorner as 

 established along the Wabash Railroad near Lafayette. I have not been 

 able to visit this place to determine whether it still persists. I have one 

 of Dorner's specimens, which is correctly named. 



S. Dak. to Mont., southw. to w. Mo., Tex., Ariz., and Mex.; rarely ad- 

 ventive eastw. 



213. Talinum teretifolium Pursh. This species was reported from 

 Lake County by Babcock (Lens 1: 23. 1872) as found on sand hills at 

 Miller and Tolleston before Talinum rugospermum was described. It is 

 now known that the Indiana Talinum belongs to the last named species. 



Pa., southw. to Ga., Ala., and Tenn. 



214. Claytonia caroliniana Michx. Carolina Spring Beauty. This 

 species has been reported from Clark, Franklin, Jefferson, Lake, and
