282 Mr. Bentham's Review of the Order of Hydrophyllese. 



of some Hydrophyllece, that they are occasionally mixed in herbaria ; but the 

 slightest examination of the parts of fructification will at once distinguish 

 them. 



Since the first sheet of this paper was printed off, the first part of the 

 seventh volume of the Journal of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Phila- 

 delphia has been received, in which Mr. Nuttall describes, page 111, a new 

 Hydrophyllum under the name of H. macrophyllum, discovered by Dr. Short 

 in the forests of Kentucky. From his description it appears to me to be 

 the same as Douglas's H. capitatum ; for which it is therefore requested 

 Mr. Nuttall's name may be substituted, as having the priority of publication. 



At the moment of sending the present sheet to press, the first part of the 

 fifth volume of the Transactions of the American Philosophical Society of 

 Philadelphia has reached us. It contains a paper of Mr. Nuttall's on the 

 Flora of Arkansas territory, with the following new species of Hydrophyllece : 



Ellisia microcalyx, glabriuscula, decumbens, foliis lyrato-pinnatifidis longe 

 petiolatis, laciniis paucis (3 — 5) lateralibus obliquis inciso-dentatis in- 

 termedio trifido obtuso, floribus solitariis minutis. 



Ellisia ranunculacea, subhirsuta, caule procumbente, foliis pinnatifidis sub- 

 quinquelobatis, superioribus tripartitis inciso-dentatis obtusis longe petio- 

 latis, racemis secundis paucifloris. 



Phacelia hirsuta, caule erecto ramoso, foliis pinnatifidis superioribus sessili- 

 bus, segmentis integriusculis, calycis laciniis linearibus patentibus, coroUse 

 lobis integris nudis, filamentis basi barbatis. 



Phacelia glabra, erecta, foliis pinnatifidis, superioribus amplexicaulibus cilia- 

 tis, segmentis integriusculis, calycis laciniis ovatis, coroUse lobis integris 

 nudis, filamentis basi barbatis.
