forms as to foliage are distributed under these numbers; under one of them there are a 

 few specimens of the var. dissecta, or of forms that evidently connect the Sida dissecta 

 of Nuttall with the S. coccinea. I have for several years cultivated this species, from 

 seeds brought from the Upper Missouri by Mr. Sprague, and had ascertained that its 

 radicle is inferior, as in Malva. — An account of the genus, of which this is one of the 

 typical species, is given in the subjoined revision of the genera allied to Malva.
