YIOLACE^. 



Viola ])iflora, L.; vai". Sitclioiisis, Rcgcl; V. Canadensis, in Bongard's Vegeta- 

 tion of Sitka, where it is also cited as V. Scouleri, Dougl. The Sitkan plant 

 is certainly very variable; one form is without doubt V. glabella, Nutt; yet 

 after carefully comparing a full suite of specimens I think Regel has correctly 

 assigned it to V. l)ifiora, L. •
