1090 Excluded Species 



569. Gerardia aspera Dougl. (Agalinis aspera (Douglass) Britt. of 

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

 Schneck as found in wet prairies in the Lower Wabash Valley, and by 

 Peattie as found in the Indiana dunes "in sandy soil of the Post-Tolleston 

 beaches." Pennell, in his studies of this species, has examined all the 

 specimens in all of the leading herbaria of the United States and has not 

 found a specimen from Indiana. Hence our reports are referred to other 

 species. 



Man. to 111. and Okla. 



570. Aureolaria laevigata (Raf.) Raf. (Probably Gerardia laevigata 

 Raf. of Gray, Man., ed. 7 and Dasystoma laevigata Raf. of Britton and 

 Brown, Illus. Flora, ed, 2.) This species was reported from Porter County 

 by Pepoon, and the specimen has been examined by Fassett, who refers it 

 to Aureolaria flava. It was reported from Marshall County by Clark, and 

 doubtless this report also should be referred to Aureolaria flava. 



Pa. and Ohio to Ga. and Tenn. 



571. Melampyrum lineare Desr. var. typicum Pennell. All reports of 

 Melampyrum made before the publication of Peattie's "Flora of the Indiana 

 Dunes" were made before authors recognized the variety. Since Pennell 

 gives the range of the typical form of the species as being outside our area, 

 doubtless all reports should be transferred to one of the varieties. 



Newf. to N. Y., Minn., and B. C. 



572. Utricularia biflora Lam. This species was reported by Scovell 

 (Proc. Indiana Acad. Sci. 1899 : 130. 1900) as occurring in Little Lake near 

 Lake Maxinkuckee. As now understood, this species occurs along the coast 

 from Massachusetts to Florida and Louisiana, and, no doubt, this report 

 should be referred to some other species. Our manuals of that date did 

 not make very clear the distinction between the species. 



573. Utricularia cleistogam a (Gray) Britt. This species was reported 

 by me for Dr. J. Schneck. Dr. Barnhart has examined the specimen and 

 writes that it is a depauperate specimen of Utricularia gibba. 



574. Utricularia inflata Walt. This species was reported from Jasper 

 County by Welch (Proc. Indiana Acad. Sci. 36: 219. 1927). I have seen the 

 specimens reported and they should be referred to Utricularia radiata 

 Small. 



575. Ruellia pedunculata Toit. Clute (Amer. Bot. 36: 169. 1930) re- 

 ported this species from Marion County under the name of Ruellia longi- 

 pedunculata. The specimen is in the herbarium of Butler University, and 

 seems to be a variation of Ruellia strepens mentioned in Gray, Synoptical 

 Flora, 1886, which has short peduncles or peduncles of varying lengths, but 

 they are not as long as those of R. pedunculata which equal the leaves. I 

 have one specimen which has peduncles of three lengths. 



111. and Mo. to Ark. and La.
