 minus incanis. — Elevated, rocky region, two miles east of the Mora River ; August. 

 (391 c.) 



' f363. Contza subdecurrens, DC. Prodr. 5. p. 379. Santa Fe, at the foot of 

 mountains high up the creek; July. (378.) — An annual or biennial, with a strict, leafy 

 stem, a foot high. Lower leaves pinnatilid-toothed.* 



f3cU. Eclipta erecta, Linn. Banks of the Missouri, below Liberty. (396.) 



f365. Silphium integrifolium, Michx. High prairies, near the upper ferry of the 

 Kansas; Sept. (398.) 



f366. S. perfoliatum, Linn. On the Kansas ; Sept. (399.) 



f367. Engelmannia pinnatifida, Torr. 8f Gray, Fl. % p. 283. Raton Mountains; 

 Sept. (401.) (Also near Buena Vista, Dr. Gregg.) 



368. Berlandierv ltrata, Benth. PI. Harlw. no. 120. Woodlands, on the moun- 

 tains, between Pecos and San Miguel ; Aug. (420.) (Also on the Cimarron, Lieut. 

 Abert ; north of Paso, Dr. Wislizenus; and near Chihuahua, Dr. Gregg.) 



f369. Melampodium cineredm, DC. Prodr. 5. p. 518. (M. leucanthum, Torr. fa- 

 Gray, Fl. 2. p. 271.) Santa Fe to San Miguel ; Aug. (462.) — The specimen has rather 

 large and mostly sinuate leaves, which are sometimes longer and sometimes shorter than 

 the slender peduncles ; as is also the case with plants raised from Texan seeds. It 

 flowers all summer, and is quite ornamental. The root is apparently perennial. Also, 

 no. f 397 from high prairies on Big Sand Creek (Cimarron), a form with narrow and 

 entire leaves; the M. leucanthum, Torr. Sf Gray, I. c., but certainly not distinct from M. 

 cinereum of De Candolle. A still more slender-leaved form was gathered at Paso del 

 Norte by Dr. Wislizenus, and intermediate states by him on the Cimarron and by Fre- 

 mont on the Upper Arkansas. 



f370. Iva ciliata, Jf'il/d. From Sand Creek, New Mexico, to Fort Leavenworth, 

 in low prairies ; Sept. (413.) 



1 371. Cyclach^na xanthiifolia, Fresen. Lid. Sem. Hort. Franc. 1836; Torr. 8f 

 Gray, Fl. 2. p. 285. Bottom land, Santa Fe to Rock Creek, New Mexico ; Aug. — Plant 

 from 6 to 10 feet high. There are two forms (415 and 416), one with rounder and 

 cordate, more incisely toothed leaves, the other with all the upper leaves lanceolate-ovate 

 and somewhat cuneate at the base. The plant from Oregon, communicated by Mr. 

 Spalding, appears to be intermediate between the two. 



* The Conyza sinuata, Ell. Sk. 2. p. 378, is C. ambigua, DC. ; as appears from specimens which I have 

 received from Mr. Ravenel.
