ENUMERATION OF THE SPECIES 157 



north than Wayne County; from Lowndes and Charlton Counties I have seen both, 

 the type and this variety. The fact that this form occupies a fairly well-defined 

 range chiefly induced me to consider it a distinct variety though differing only in 

 the minor character of the pubescent winter-buds. Except in the amount of pu- 

 bescence of the winter-buds it shows little or no variation. Harper's No. 1929 from 

 Climax is the only specimen of this variety which shows part of the leaves pubescent; 

 it differs also in its small nearly ovoid capsules less than 1 cm. long. Whether 

 Mallichamp's specimen from South Carolina really belongs here or is perhaps a 

 form of R. viscosum I am not quite sure.
