1056 Excluded Species 



287. Philadelphia grandiflorus Willd. Big Scentless Mockorange. 

 Reported from Clark and Jefferson Counties. The specimens were, no 

 doubt, from cultivated plants or possibly garden escapes. 



Pa. to Va., Tenn., and Fla. 



288. Philadelphia inodorus L. Scentless Mockorange. Reported 

 from Clark and Lawrence Counties. Both reports, no doubt, are from 

 planted or escaped specimens. In 1915 I collected a specimen in Lawrence 

 County from the yard of the George Donaldson home near Mitchell. It must 

 have been planted before 1883. The home burned many years ago and the 

 yard and orchard have now all grown up to large forest trees but the 

 Philadelphus still persists. 



Va. to Ky., southw. to Ga. and Miss., principally in the mts. Escaped 

 from cultivation in Pa. 



289. Ribes glandulosum Grauer. (Ribes prostratum L'Her. of Gray, 

 Man., ed. 7.) Skunk Currant. This species was reported from Jefferson 

 County by Young as Ribes prostratum. Since the range of this species is 

 far to the north of this county, it is best to refer this report to some 

 other species. 



Lab. and Newf. to Athabasca, southw. to n. N. E., Mich., Minn., and 

 along the mts. to N. C. 



290. Ribes odoratum Wendl. (Ribes aureum Pursh of Gray, Man., ed. 

 7.) Golden Currant. This species has been reported as an escape in two 

 counties and I have seen it in two counties. It has been rather common in 

 cultivation for a long time and since it has not, by this time, escaped to 

 any great extent, I doubt if it will become a part of our flora. 



Minn., S. Dak., Mo., and Tex., westw. to the Rocky Mts. 



291. Ribes sativum (Reichenb.) Syme. (Ribes vulgare Lam. of Gray, 

 Man., ed. 7 and Britton and Brown, Illus. Flora, ed. 2.) Common Red 

 Currant. This species has been reported as an escape by six authors. It 

 has been under cultivation since pioneer times and if it is to become a part 

 of our flora it would have done so long ago. I have seen it as an escape 

 only once. 



Nat. of Eu. ; escaped from cultivation, Mass. to Ont., southw. to Va. 

 and Wis., and in Oreg. and B. C. 



292. Ribes triste Pallas. Swamp Red Currant. This species was re- 

 ported from Clark and Jefferson Counties by Stanley Coulter, who says: 

 "No herbarium specimens have been examined." Since the range of this 

 species is far north of these counties, this report should be referred to 

 some other species. 



Newf. to Alaska, southw. to N. J., Mich., S. Dak., and Oreg.; also in 

 n. Asia. 



293. Grossularia oxyacanthoides (L.) Mill. This species was re- 

 ported before Grossularia hirtella was recognized by our manuals. Since
