LETTER No. 54. 



Report of specimens received since last report. My best thanks are 

 extended to those who have favored me with specimens. 



In my printed letter I do not give authorities for names, believing that 

 the binomial should represent a plant name, but in acknowledging the speci- 

 mens to my correspondents, I give the "authority" in event they desire to 

 use the same. All specimens are acknowledged by personal letter as soon 

 as they come into my hands. Foreign correspondents may send specimens 

 to my English address and they will reach me promptly, although in coun- 

 tries which have direct parcel post arrangements with the United States, 

 it is best to send them by parcel post direct to me. Specimens may be sent 

 to either of the following addresses:
