There is also a number oi" new or rare Trees and Shrubs 

 discovered in Florida and described by Bartram 50 or 60 

 years ago, that are not yet received by our supine Botanists 

 — others of Robin disc, in 1802, described 1807 and by me 

 again in 1817 in Florula Ludoviciana, are yet quite neglected 

 by them — Even those few noticed or well ascertained by 

 Lewis and Clarke 30 years ago, in Origon,are hardly known. 

 All these ought to have been long ago added at least as Sy- 

 nonyms or in an Appendix to our Botanical Works, and 1 

 mean to do so, unless introduced by me in the proper mono- 

 graphs ; I will now add here the names of the most remarka- 

 ble among them. 



Among Bartram's Trees orShrubs of Florida were Nyssa 

 coccinea, Lycmm salsum, Corypha repens and obliqua, 

 Areca floridaiia R. (Corypha palma B.) Erythrina corallo- 

 dendron, Magnolia fragrans and acuta Raf. and several Sp. 

 of Michaux long before him,Quercus incana and many others, 

 many Sp. of Azalea, Aesculus, Myrica, Lantana, Prinos, An- 

 dromeda . . . also Cupressus purpurea Raf. Rhizophora con- 

 jugata, Agave vivipara, Carica papaya or ftoridana Raf. . . . 

 Besides several new Genera, my Xiphodendron, Nestronia, 

 Sc^erotris, Piloblephis &c. 



Among those of Lewis and Clarke are my Sorbus pumila, 

 Sambucus ceruleus, Juniperus radicans, Betula rupestris, Pi- 

 nus humilis and macrocarpa, Pyrus fuscata . . . besides sev- 

 eral Sp. of Cactus, Ribes, Vaccinium . . . and all my new 

 Firs see Abies. 



Among those of Robin and Louisiana to be admitted in our 

 Sylva, are my Laurus ludoviciana, Fraxinus discolor, undu- 

 lata and lacera, Arbutus obtusifolius, Cornus polygama, As- 

 cyrum grandiflorum, Hypericum rostratum and fulgidum, 

 Tilia stenopetala, Frangula fragilis, Prunus stenophyla, Gle- 

 ditsia heterophyla, Ptelea tomentosa, Hicorius integrifolia, 

 Cassine ramulosa, £cc . . . Besides my N. G. Chimanthus, 

 Adnaria, Diplonix, Pseudopetalon, Philostemon ... all des- 

 cribed since 1817! 



We should look in vain for these Trees and Shrubs in the 

 Works of our Compilers and neglectful Botanists. They 

 will all be noticed again in my New Sylva, or given as sy- 

 nonyms when rectified.
