98 NEOBOT, 



nerves pubescent, raceme sessile interrupted 

 whorled, bracts subulate equal to ca ix canes- 

 cent tomentose not angular — nearest to T. ie- 

 vi^atum and T, virginicum or rather my T. 

 ohliqiiatum with ovate obliqual leaves petiolate, 

 unequaly serrate, pubescent beneath. This is 

 found from New Jersey to Virginia, is pedal, 

 leaves biuncial narrow, root nodose creeping as 

 in most species. It was noticed by Collins as a 

 N. sp. . 



989. Teucrium cinereum R. ramose pube- 

 rulent, stem grooved angles acute, leaves sub- 

 petiolate elliptic or broad oblong acute at both 

 ends subequaly serrate^ beneath tomentose but 

 not white ; racemes elongate sessile slender, 

 calix scattered cinereous pubescent angular sub- 

 sessile, bracts subulate equal — in East Ken- 

 tucky and Tennessee the Cumberland Mts. and 

 Cheroki Mts. large sp. bipedal, leaves 3 to 5 

 inches long, half as broad, raceme 6 to 10 inches 

 long. — Thus our 7 Teucriums differ in stems, 

 leaves, petiols, racemes^ bracts and calix, agree- 

 ing in nothing but creeping root, erect stems, 

 serrate leaves and incarnate racemose flowers. 



EUPHORBIDES. 

 Although I had revised and corrected the 

 Genera blended in Euphorbia^ infl. tellur. 1168 

 1190, I have yet the pleasure to add now 2 N, 

 G. of North America, that would have been re- 

 fered thereto. 



990. ZALITEA Raf. Dioical, perianthe 

 male campanulate 5fid, segments ovate acute 

 erect, each having upon their base a lunulate 

 gland. Stamens few short, several castrate or 

 sterile filaments. Female . . . Leaves opposite 

 narrow petiolate, flowers axillary sessile, — A 

 singular G. perfectly new^ anonymous in Collins
