 berries, from New Jersey to Florida; (2) V. rugosum, with petiolate 

 obovate or broadly elliptical 3-nerved leaves, very short spikes, and white 

 berries turning red when dry, from Delaware and Virginia. These two 

 seem to represent the range of forms in the northern Atlantic States,

 ochroleucum is said to be vernal; (3) V. serotinum (PI. 25), with sub- 

 petiolate obovate hardly nerved leaves longer than the spikes, and snowy 

 white berries turning purplish when dry, from Kentucky, Illinois and 

 Missouri. This is said to flower in the autumn and early winter, and
