114 VALEKIANACE^I. 



(added by Dillenius on the same page) the V. officinalis of 

 modem authors. The plant of Ray's "Catalogus" (173) is 

 certainly our V. officinalis. Apparently the typical plant of 

 Linnaeus is what we now call V. sambucifolia, and his var. /? 

 is our V. officinalis. This is unfortunate, but as the names 

 are generally adopted both here and on the Continent, it 

 cannot now be corrected.
