The specimens examined were ail Ha vlgrines collected ae Canby, Chap- 
man, Curtiss, and J. D. Smith. The original station given by Michaux is in 
Georgia, in which he is confirmed by Elliott sid RGHEL as well as by subse- 
quent collections.

sepals evident: styles short 
2. A. Crux-Andree L. Low (half to a foot or less), much 
branched at base, generally decumbent: leaves narrowly obovate- 
oblong, 4 to 13 inches long, 3 to 4 lines wide, more or less plainly

The narrow-leaved sel ots of this range should be referred to the fol- 
lowing species, with which A. Crux- Andre has unfortunately been confounded. 
The western forms all seem to be taller and more robust than those of the At- 
lantic States. In reference to the confusion of the synonymy of A. Crux-An- 
drew and A. hypericoides consult Torr. & Gray, FI. i. 671, where the best course 
wt tt the difficulty is suggested. The specimens examined were from 
tucket (Mrs. Owen), New Jersey (Gray, Parker), Pennsylvania (Porter), Vir- 
ginia (Curtiss, Dana), S. Llinois ( Vasey), W. Tennessee (Foner), E. Arkansas. 
( Harvey, 52), E. Texas (Hall, 36 in part).
