436 SUPPLEMENT. 



Borne authors, hardly of Jacquin, but if they run together this (in Obs. iii. 5) is a later 

 name. C. Valenzuelanus, A. Rich., ex Griseb. Cub. — S. E. Florida, on the Keys and near the 

 coast, Garber, Curtiss. (Cuba, Bahamas, &c.) 



C. akvensis, L. Now well naturalized in California. 



C. PENTAPETALofoES, L. Diffusely branched and slender annual, with spatulate-lanceolate 

 mostly entire leaves : peduncles bearing a single small flower, with purplish corolla only 3 

 lines long and deeply 5-cleft. — Cav. Ic. ii. 20, t. 123; Sibth. Fl. Graeca, t. 197. Breweria 

 minima, Gray, Proc. Am. Acad. xvii. 228.— - In- grain-fields and on hills, through W. 

 California. (Nat. from S. Eu.) 



5. BREWERIA, R. Br. 



The first division, containing B. ovalifolia, p. 217, which is probably large-flowered, needs 

 slight alteration, as to length of peduncle, for the following related and remarkable species. 



B. grandiflora, Gkay. Minutely sericeous-puberulent : root tuberous : stems procumbent, 

 2 or 3 feet long : leaves broadly oval or some orbicular, an inch or two long, very short- 

 petioled : peduncles rather shorter than the leaf, one-flowered, bearing two subulate bracts at 

 base of a stout pedicel : sepals broadly lanceolate, the two outer a little shorter than the 

 inner (these in fruit an inch long, surpassing the capsule) : corolla funnelform from a rather 

 long tube, blue. 3 inches in length : styles capillary, distinct nearly to base : stigmas globose. 

 — Proc. Am. Acad. xv. 51. — Coast of S. Florida, at Manatee, &c, Garber. 



B. humistrata, p. 217. The syn. Convolvolvulus and Evolvuhtsl Sherardi to be erased; the 

 plant in herb. Sherard being Convolvulus micranthus and W. Indian. 



6. E VOLVULUS, L. Next to E. Arizonicus, p. 218, add: — 



E. lsetus, Gray. Sericeous-canescent throughout, and with some soft villous pubescence, 

 much branched from a, suffrutescent base, erect or barely spreading, 6 to 10 inches high, 

 leafy : leaves sessile, oblong-lanceolate, half-inch long : peduncles 1-3-flowered, surpassing 

 the leaves : corolla bright blue, with limb fully half-inch in diameter. — Proc. Am. Acad, 

 xvii. 288. — Mountains of S. Arizona, Pringle, Lemmon. 



E. sericeus, Swaetz, p. 218. The stouter varieties which prevail in W. Texas, Arizona, 

 and adjacent Mexico, pass freely into 



Var. discolor (E. discolor, Benth. PI. Hartw.), a more depressed form, with the lower 

 leaves, or those of abbreviated stems, all of them oblong or lanceolate-oblong and obtuse. — 

 Arizona and New Mexico, Greene, Lemmon, Pringle, &c. 



SOLANACE^. 



Withattia Moeisoni, Dunal, p. 224. The original is W. somnifera, and Morison does not 

 gay that he had it, but only something like it, from Virginia. 



2. SOLANUM, Tourn. 



S. Douglasii, Dunal (S. nigrum, var. Douglasii, p. 228), common through California and 

 in Arizona, and clearly indigenous, is a woody-stemmed perennial, and should rank as a 

 species. 



6. CHAMJESARACHA, Gray. Add to char. : Corolla with roundish 

 and tomentose twin elevations at the throat, alternate with the stamens. 

 O. Coronopus, p. 232. Corolla greenish-white (not "yellowish"), the appendages in the 



throat large and protuberant.
