 — Britton i96.^Keller and Brown 281. 



Apparently rare. I am, however, by no means certain that the 

 plant referred to is certainly distinct from L. sessilifolius. The 

 example from Cape May shows short petioled leaves, but one 

 from Forked River is nearly as much petioled. The sepals, too, 

 are nearly glabrous, while in sessilifolius they are usually hispid. 



Cape May. — Cape May.
