NOTES ON ERYNGIUM 248 
re gyre ama i placed under aquaticum. To this 
importation is owing the confusion that has arisen: Miller (1768) 
and subsequ ast sn soni g- De Candolle, Delaroche, Torrey and 
Gray, and J. B. Ker (Bot. Reg. t. 872)—cite ed. ii. Sp. Pl. as the 
authority for aquaticum. Britton & Brown indeed quote the name 
from ed. i., but r plant is the plant of ed. ii., as represented by 
the synonymy just quoted—i.e. EF. yuccifolium 
Plukenet’s figure does not very satisfactorily represent hae plant, 
but his specimens in Her oane (xcili. nd xcvi. 20) 
unmistakeable—indeed, there is no possibility of sohtaeinit the two 
ed 
Oe 
It should be noted that, in correcting the synonymy as abov 
ae retained under fetidum the phrase “ K. foliis glint,” 
etc., as far as it referred to plant so called by Gronovi 
p. 30. This, of which we have the type (Clayton 282) in “hie 
National Herbarium, is FE. pi atk and apparently had not been 
seen by Linnzus; and this may explain his not having removed it. 
This last-named species he ~~ come to aoa more thoroughly, 
as is shown by his having removed from it plants which he knew 
po ag elsewhere, and by his f fall stent in Syst. ed. xii. 201 
(1767). 
the synonymy of F. yuccifolium must be added FH. aquaticum 
and EH’, fetidum of Walter’s Flora Caroliniana (p. 112) as is shown 
by the specimens—poor, but sufficient—in his herbarium
