v 
Vicra Fioripana. Glabrous, with very slender elongated stems: 
leaflets 2 or 3 pairs, oblong-elliptic, cuneate at base, rounded and 
mucronate above, 5 to 10 lines long; stipules very small and narrow: 
peduncle 1-6- (usually 1—2-) flowered, } to 2 inches long: flowers . 
small and pale (3 lines long), on very short pedicels ; calyx-teeth 
broad, much shorter than the campanulate tube: pod glabrous, 
1—2-seeded, shortly stipitate, acuminate, 1 inch long by 2 lines broad 
or more. — Florida, Buckley ; upper St. John’s River, W. M. Canby ; 
rich woods near Jacksonville, and shell-islands at mouth of St. 
John’s River, A. H. Curtiss. Apparently V. acutifolia var. B, Torr. & 
Gray, Flora, 1. 272; growing in large patches, and probably a 
perennial. 
Boxianpra OrEGANA. Resembling B. Carirornica in habit, but 
stouter (15 to 20 inches high) and more pubescent and glandular 
especially above: leaves laciniately toothed and lobed: flowers larger, 
the calyx-tube (about 3 lines long) equalling the teeth and a little 
shorter than the deep purple petals: pedicels reflexed in fruit: beaks 
of the ovary and capsule more attenuate: seeds dull, dark brown, 
a third of a line long. — On wet rocky banks of the Willamette River, 
near Oregon City, Oregon; J. Howell, June, 1877. 
SULLIVANTIA OREGANA. Stoloniferous, slender, with the habit of 
S. Ohiofngis, glandular above: leaves round-cordate, acutely and 
rather laciniately toothed, an inch in diameter or less: petals obtuse, 
oblong-obovate, a half longer than the sepals (13 lines long), some- 
what crenate: seeds dark-brown and shining, narrowly winged, two 
thirds of a line long. — Discovered by the same collector in the same 
locality, and also on the rocky banks of the Columbia River. — 
S. Ouroy¥ngis has oblanceolate acutish petals, and smaller light-brown 
seeds with a thinner more distinct wing. It appears not to be 
stoloniferous. 
CotyLepon Patmert. Caulescent: leaves not at all mealy or 
glaucous, reddish, lanceolate and acuminate (narrowing from the base 
to a very sharp point), 2 inches long by 8 or 9 lines wide at base, the 
margin obtuse: stem a span long, red, with scattered broadly trian- 
gular-ovate leaves, the lower more acuminate: inflorescence of a few 
simple spreading secund racemes, somewhat glaucous: pedicels 3 to 6 
lines long: calyx rather broad, with triangular-ovate sepals 2 lines 
long: petals pale lemon-yellow, 5 or 6 lines long, scarcely carinate, 
the midvein not glaucous: carpels 4 lines long, at length somewhat 
spreading and with divergent styles. — San Simeon Bay, California ; 
Dr. E. Palmer, 1877.
