CORRECTIONS. 
Ivvestications made since the earlier volumes of this Silva were published have shown the 
necessity of correcting the descriptions of several species. A few of these corrections have already been 
printed ; the others will be found in the following notes: — 
Magnolia fostida, i. 3. Magnolia grandiflora was first published by Linnzus in 1759 in the tenth edition 
of the Systema (ii. 1082). 
Magnolia glauca, i.5. Magnolia glauca was first used by Linnzeus as a name of a species in 1759 in the 
tenth edition of the Systema (ii. 1082). 
Extend range westward in Pennsylvania to swamps on the South Mountain at the head of the east fork of the 
Conococheague River, Franklin County. (Teste Miss M. L. Dock, Garden and Forest, x. 402. See, also, Garden 
and Forest, vii. 398 ; viii. 7 o))) 
Magnolia acuminata, i.7. This name was first published by Linnzus in 1759 in the tenth edition of the 
Systema (ii. 1082). 
Magnolia tripetala, i.13. This name was first published by Linneus in 1759 in the tenth edition of the 
Systema (ii. 1082). 
Extend range to the valley of the Susquehanna River in York County, Pennsylvania, where it has been found 
near York Furnace and at Reed’s Run by Professor T. C. Porter, and where it is rare and local. (See Porter, 
Bull. Torrey Bot. Club, xxv. 489.) 
Liriodendron Tulipifera, i. 19. Add to the synonyms Tulipifera Liriodendron, Miller, Dict. ed. 8 (1768). 
Asimina triloba, i. 28. Extend range to western New Jersey and to southeastern Nebraska, where it has 
been found in Pawnee, Richardson, Nemaha, Otoe, and Saunders counties. (See Bessey, Rep. Nebraska State 
Board Agric. 1899, 84.) 
“Tn eastern Pennsylvania Asimina triloba is common along the lower Susquehanna and its tributaries, and 
on the Juniata in Mifflin and Huntingdon counties, where I found it at the head of a mountain stream sixteen 
hundred feet above the level of the sea.” (Professor T. C. Porter, in litt. See Bull. Torrey Bot. Club, xxv. 489.) 
Canella alba, i. 87. This tree was described by Linnzus in the first edition of the Species Plantarum, 
published in 1758 as Laurus Winterana, while the name Canella alba of Murray was not published until 1784, 
and, under the rules of nomenclature adopted in this work, Canella Winterana of Geertner, published in 1788 
and already adopted by Sudworth, must be taken up for it. (See Bull. Torrey Bot. Club, xx. 46; Bull. No. 14 
Div. Forestry U. S. Dept. Agric. 213 [Nomenclature of the Arborescent Flora of the United States.) 
Fremontia, i. 47. Fremontia having been a synonym when it was used in 1858 by Torrey as the name of his 
genus in Cheiranthodendrew, the name cannot be retained for this California tree under the rules of nomenclature 
followed in this work ; and Fremontodendron of Coville is adopted. (See Contrib. U. S. Nat. Herb. iv. TA [ Bot. 
Death Valley Hxped.| [1893].) 
Fremontodendron Californicum. Extend range northward to Siskiyou County, California, where it was 
collected by Miss A. M. Huntley in June, 1896, near Sisson, at the western base of Mt. Shasta.. In August, 
1892, it was found by Mrs. T. S. Brandegee on Snow Mountain in Lake County, one of the highest peaks of the 
California coast ranges. : 
Tilia heterophylla, i.57. The northern limits of the range of this species in Pennsylvania are, according to 
Professor T. C. Porter, Huntingdon County, where it grows on the banks of the Juniata River; it also grows in 
Franklin County on the Conococheague. (Porter, in litt.) 
Xanthoxylum, i. 65. The author of Fagara is Linneus, Syst. ed. 10 (i. 897), published in 1759, and not 
Adanson, Fam. Pl. published in 1763.
