*56. \'ioht papilionacea domestica (Bicknell) Pollard. Field Violet. 

 Putnam County, in cultivated fields. Not common. 



57. Passifiora lutea L. Yellow Passion Flower. 



Putnam County, on the embankment of the Big Four Railroad west of 

 Greencastle. The most northern record for the State. (State Catalogue, 

 p. 846.) 



58. Onagra biennis grandiflora (Ait.) Lindl. (Oenothera b. g.) 



Putnam County, along the Big Four Railroad. The only previous 

 mention of this species in the State is found on page 179 of the Proceed- 

 ings of the Academy for 1901, where it is recorded that "a patch, prob- 

 ably of recent introduction, of var. grandiflora was found in moist ground 

 near Warsaw." 



59. Anoyra albicavlus (Pursh. ) Britton. Prairie Evening Primrose. 

 Tippecanoe County. The State Catalogue (p. 852) classes this species 



as "an exceptional form occasionally occurring in the southern counties. 

 Its northern limit in the State seems to he Hamilton County." This showy 

 flower was collected at two stations in the vicinity of Lafayette the past 

 summer. It was rather abundant in a meadow east of the city and saveral 

 plants were found along the Belt Railroad about a mile distant. 



60. Circaea lutetiana L. Enchanter's Nightshade. 



The texts with one accord speak of the plants of this genus as white 

 flowered. This, however, is inaccurate, as the present species shows a 

 marked variation in this respect. While the flowers are typically white 

 there are all the intermediate shades up to a bright pink. The first part 

 of the flower to change its color is the outside of the sepals, then the en- 

 tire sepal, and last of all the petals. Dr. Coulter tells me that he has seen 

 this form rather frequently in this State and in New York during the past 

 summer. I have collected the red flowered form in a single locality in 

 Hamilton County. 



61. Anagallis arvensis L. Poor Man's Weatherglass. 



Putnam County. A specimen of this species collected in Putnam 

 County' by Miss Amelia Ellis is in the herharium of DePauw University. 

 The most northern record given in the State Catalogue is Monroe County.
