 subtus glabris, axilis unifl. elongatis pet. longior 

 Virginia &c, akin to the Pr. integrifolius of 

 Elliot but with flowers polygamous 6androus. 

 All the above may have been overlooked or 

 blended with Ilex prinoides, and Prinos am- 

 biguus of Authors.

 these by flowers umbellate agregate almost ver- 

 ticillate, and is a larger Shrub. Pr, integrifo- 

 lia by entire mucronate leaves, long pedicels, 

 flowers 6-7androus &c,

 This G. of mine one of the few now generaly 

 adopted was based on the Ilex canadensis of 

 MX. but I think it includes 2 sp, the essential 

 character of the G. is in the calix of male fl. 

 very minute entire, corolla 3-5parted not rotate, 

 stamens 3-5, stig. 3-51obed sessile, but the qua- 

 ternary number chiefly prevails.

 was my original sp. of the Catskill Mts. perhaps 

 only a variable deviation ; seot me also from the 

 plains of Ohio and near Lake Erie.
