IV. SOME AMERICAN PANICUMS IN THE HERBARIUM BEROLI- 
NENSE AND IN THE HERBARIUM 0F WILLDENOW. 
By Theo. Horw. 
The specimens which have been examined were mostly collected by 
American botanists, but several were also collected by Beyrich in the 
year 1834, and the latter have undoubtedly been revised by Kunth. 
Willdenow does not give the collector’s name in most instances, but, as 
a it will be seen later, some of his plants were collected by Muhlenberg.
