1. Alvaradoa amorphoides Liebm. A shrub or small tree. Leaves numerous: 

 leaflets 1-2 cm. long, the blades thinnish, those of the lateral ones mostly oblong or 

 oval: flowers numerous, slender-pedicelled : sepals ovate, about 1.5 mm. long: fila- 

 ments pubescent: samaras oblong to ovate-oblong, 12-14 mm. long, ciliate, notched. 



In hammocks, southern peninsular Florida. Also in tropical America. All year.

Page 684, after Poly gala grandiflora, insert : 



3a. Polygala corallicola Small. Plants 2-4.5 dm. tall : blades of the upper 

 leaves linear, typically narrowly so, or filiform-linear: flowers purple: sepals 1-1.5 

 mm. long at maturity: wings 3.54 mm. long at maturity: capsules 3-3.5 mm. long. 

 Differs from P. grandiflora in the purple wings and the small sepals. 



In pine lands, southern peninsular Florida. Also in the Bahamas and Cuba. All year. 



3b. Polygala Krugii Unodat. Perennial, bright green. Stems erect, 2-3.5 dm. 

 tall, usually branched near the base, the branches slender, minutely and rather closely 

 pubescent with very short hairs: leaves numerous; blades thinnish, mostly linear- 

 elliptic, 1-2.5 cm. long, acute, often minutely pubescent above, bright green above, 

 paler beneath, slightly revolute when dry, short-petioled : racemes loosely few-flowered, 

 1.5-2.5 cm. long: pedicels 1-2 mm. long: flowers greenish: outer sepals about 1.5 mm. 

 long, minutely and closely ciliate with glandless hairs: wings broadly and obliquely 

 obovate, becoming about 4.5 mm. long: lateral petals obovate, scarcely shorter than 

 the keel: stamens 6, or sometimes 8: style similar to that of P. grandiflora but only 

 \ as large: capsules 4 mm. long, notched at the apex, the margins uneven but not 

 crested: seed-body 2 mm. long, the hairs of the dense pubescence somewhat directed 

 backward, the caruncle fully 0.5 mm. long, not decurrent. Differs from P. grandi- 

 flora in the more slender habit, the less dense pubescence, the much smaller flowers and 

 fruits and the eglandular sepals. 



In sandy soil, southern Florida. Also on New Providence, Bahamas. All year.

16a. Polygala flagellaris Small. Plants with decumbent branches 2-6 dm. 

 long: blades of the lower leaves spatulate to broadly spatulate, those of the upper 

 ones narrowly so, or linear-spatulate : flowers whitish or pale green: sepals 2-2.5 mm. 

 long: wings oval or obovate, 2.5-3 mm. long: keel 2.5-3 mm. long: capsules oblong, 

 about 2.5 mm. long. Differs from P. Boykinii in the numerous leaves, the smaller 

 oblong capsule and the smaller narrow seeds. 



In rocky pine lands, southern peninsular Florida. All year.

30a. Polygala arenicola Small. Plants 0.2-0.5 dm. tall: leaf -blades oblanceo- 

 late to linear-oblanceolate : racemes green : upper sepal lanceolate : wings lanceolate, 

 gradually long-acuminate: seeds fully 1.5 mm. long, the caruncle about $ as long as 

 the seed or less. Diff ers from P. nana in the narrow leaf -blades and the less attenuate 

 tips to the sepals. 



In rocky pine lands, southern peninsular Florida. All year.

33a. Polygala Carter! Small. Plants 1-5.5 dm. tall : leaf -blades various, those 

 of the lower leaves spatulate, those of the upper linear-oblong to almost linear: 

 racemes acute, greenish: wings oblong, sometimes broadly so, abruptly pointed: cap- 

 sules fully 1 mm. wide: seeds oval, about 1 mm. long. Differs from P. Baldwinii in 

 the greenish acute racemes and the cuspidate wings. 



In low pine lands, southern peninsular Florida. All year.
