verruc. fol. obi. acutis, apice remote serratis, 

 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 prinoldes, and Frlnos am- 

 biguus of Authors.

 these by flowers umbellate agregate almost ver- 

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

 Ha by entire mucronate leaves, long pedicels, 

 flowers 6-7androus *Slc. 



225. Nemopanthes Raf. 1817. Dec. Hook. Slc. 

 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.

 49 auct, fol. obi. lanceol. utrinque acutis subin- 

 tegris, fl. masc. geminatis, fruct. sub4gono — 

 Canada, Hudson bay, and boreal regions. 



257. Nemop. fascicularis Raf. foL subfasc. 

 ovalis ellipt. ovatisque intogris acutis^ vel ohtu- 

 sis, fl. masc. fasciculatis, fruct. snbglohoso — 3Its. 

 and hills of New England and New York : this 

 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. 



258. Braxylis Raf, diff. Aquifoliuin, 4ndis fl, 

 stam. 4, stylo brevis, stigma unicum obtus. dru- 

 pa uniloc. l-2sperma — Here begins to appear a 

 short style as in next, lacking in all others.
