it should be said that the plant illustrated by Kerner and to 

 which he applied the hyponym, Sarracenia laciniata, is appar- 

 ently the well-known S. Drummondii Croom of the southeastern 

 states, ranging from northwestern Florida to Mississippi and 

 western Georgia and known locally as "purple-trumpet" or 

 "fiddler's-trumpet." The name S. laciniata should, therefore, 

 henceforth be relegated to synonymy under S. Drummondii.
