1. p. 48, proves, from specimens with good fruit raised in the Cambridge Botanic Garden from seeds commu- 
nicated by Lindheimer, to have a squamellate pappus, and therefore to be a second species of Halea. The 
two species are thus characterized : — 
1. Hatea Lupovicrana (Torr. & Gray): foliis amplis ovatis crebre et argutissime dentatis, superioribus 
late connatis ; tubo corolle glabro ; pappo e paleis ovalibus coriaceis circ. 20 latitudine achenii paulo brevi- 
oribus. 
2. H. Texana: gracilis; foliis oblongis vel lanceolatis sinuato-pinnatifidis ; tubo corolle glanduloso ; 
pappo e squamellis subulatis exiguis inequalibus, majoribus vix dimidium latitudinis achenii equantibus. — Dr. 
Gregg also gathered this species at Mier, on the right bank of the Rio Grande. 
* Dr. Thomas C. Porter, of Pennsylvania, has furnished me with specimens of an ambiguous Helianthoid 
plant, gathered by himself on Rock Mountain, Georgia, which I am unable positively to determine for want of 
the fruit, but which I incline to refer to Rudbeckia, next to R. triloba, notwithstanding that the lower leaves 
are opposite and the disk-flowers are yellow. It may be provisionally characterized as follows : — 
Rupseckta? Portes (sp. nov.): caule gracili hirsutulo apice paniculato ; foliis membranaceis lanceola- 
tis integerrimis utrinque acutis basi attenuata subsessilibus indistincte triplinerviis parce hispidis, superioribus 
alternis inferne setigero-ciliatis, inferioribus oppositis; pedunculis gracilibus 1 —2-bracteatis monocephalis ; 
squamis involucri biserialis exterioribus anguste linearibus foliaceis acutissimis laxis /hispido-ciliatis disco lon- 
gioribus, intimig paucis multo brevioribus oblongi-ovatis membranaceis glabris in cuspidem acuminatis paleis 
receptaculi conici consimilibus ; ligulis aureis 7-9 obovati-oblongis involucrum duplo superantibus ; corollis 
disci flavis profunde 5-lobis glabris; styli appendicibus filiformi-subulatis hispidis ; ovariis calvis compressis 
marginibus parce hispidulis. — Capitula iisdem R. trilobe minora.
