Viola primulifoliu L. var. villosa A. Eaton. No. 163. The following is 

 an extract of a letter received from Ezra Brainard in answer to his 

 receipt of my leaflet "The Primrose-leaved Violet in White County, 

 Proc. Ind. Acad. Sci. 1914:213-217." "The drawing of your speci- 

 mens seems to make them Eaton's var. villosa, a form commonly 

 found in the South as far West as Calcasien County, La. (lat. 

 30V2°). Its occurrence in Ind. Lat. 40° 35', about 700 miles further 

 north, is surprising. This pubescence in yoUr plant may, however, 

 be an instance of the general law that low temperature and high 

 humidity, as in your small mucky bog, favor pubescence, while high 

 temperature and low humidity tend to do the opposite." See Brain- 

 erd, Violets of North America, Vt. Agr. Exp., Sta. Bui. 224 : Dec, 

 1921, p. 87, also pp. 64 and 65. Pitt. 3:315 May, 1898.
