Professor Bailey informs me that the specimens placed under this 

 species in Part IV., 109, belong to C. gynocrates. This species is there- 

 fore cancelled, and references under it go to 0. gynocrates. 



(2524.) C. Jamesil, Schweinitz; Bailey, Mem. Ton-. Bot. Club., I., 48. 

 Eeferences under C. Steudelii, Kunth, Part IV., 113, belong here. 



(2528.) C. Sartwellii, Dew. Sill. Journ. XLIIL, 90. (1842.) 



Eeferences under 0. disticha, Huds, Part IV., 114, belong here. 



Prctf. Bailey in Mem. Torr. Bot. Club, I., 8, says that " the American 

 plant is abundantly distinct from the European 0. disticha, Huds." 

 Prof Dewey and Dr. Boott thought otherwise, but we fully agree with 

 Prof. Bailey in keeping them apart.
