Type species, S. americana L. 



I. ScHWALBEA AMERICAXA L. l.c. 606. 1753- "Habitat in 



America septentrionali." Linne had in his herbarium no 



specimen of this, so that his species is based wholly upon 



Gron., Fl. Virg. 71. 1743, typified by Clayton jj from 



from Virginia. This from the description of the leaves 



as lanceolate and the plant as quite pubescent would 



appear to have been the species now considered. 



Flowering from mid-June to early July, fruiting in September. 



Sandy soil, usually rather damp, in pineland and about edges 



of salt-marsh, in the Coastal Plain of southern New Jersey and
