383. Agalinis yiLiFooA Raf. Ger. do Nut. 

 Ell. I have not seen this sp. of Florida, it ap- 

 pears to difter hv terete stem, leaves filiform, 

 carnose, corolla large similar to A. palustris, 

 calix likewise. 



384. Agalinis micropiiylla Raf. smooth, 

 stem virgate terete costate sulcate, leaves re- 

 mote adpressed scattered minute linear obtuse, 

 flowers spicate snhsessile, peduncles shorter 

 than calix, teeth short acute, corolla smooth 

 ciliate shallow — in Florida, collected by Le- 

 conte (Collins herb) very slender, few alternate 

 branches, few leaves 2 or 3 lines long, stem 

 deeply grooved and ribbed not angular. Flow- 

 ers small similar to those of A. glauca. Quite 

 distinct from next by stem, leaves and pedun- 

 cles. 



385. Agalinis aphylla Raf. Ger. do Nut. 

 El. smooth, stem virgate nearly simple 4gone 

 leaves opposite like scales ovate acute deci- 

 duous, flowers racemose opposed, peduncles 

 elongate triple of calix, teeth minute acute — 

 Carolina to Florida. My specimen is only pe- 

 dal, and in fruit, quite aphyllous, capsules ovate, 

 there are 2 other doubtful sp. of this Genus, 

 Ger, leucanthera fl. lud. 155, which is probably 

 a var. of Ag. temijfolia G. 2. Ger. Jiammea 

 of Bartram travels omitted by all later botanists, 

 is perhaps a Russelia ! for G. auriculata see 

 next Genus. 



386. TOMANTHERA Raf. calix Sparted 

 unequal, corolla smooth venose, rotate campan- 

 iilate Slobed, lobes rounded 2 superior larger, 

 stamens 4 didynamic very unequal, 2 of double 

 length, filaments smooth flexuose, anthers smooth 

 bipartite, the 2 cells unequal,dehiscent lateraiy, 

 Btvle flexuose, stigma obtuse. Capside ovate
