The revision of the genus by Mrs. E. G. Britton, Bull. Torr. Bot. Club 

 21: 189. 1894, has been followed. P. pyriforme Brid. is a European 

 species and does not occur in America; American specimens called pyri- 

 forme are referable to P. turhinatum Miill. P. strangulatum Kindb., 

 Ott. Nat. 4: 62, is reduced to P. turhinatum. P. 2')latyphyllum Kindb., 

 Mac. Cat. 269, is rejected, as the species is founded upon such very imma- 

 ture specimens that it probably can not stand.
