Suborder I. Gentianee. Tribe I. Chloree. 
1. Cutora Linn. Yellow-wort. 
1. C. perfoliata (L.); lowermost 1. elliptic-oblong narrowed 
below, stem-l. broadly connate, st: perfoliate—H. B. 60.—St. 12 
—18 in. high, simple. Stem-l. triangular-ovate, connected by 
their whole breadth in rather distant pairs, glaucous. Panicle 
forked, many-flowered. Cal. divided to its base into linear-sub- 
ulate segments. Cor. bright yellow. Stigmas yellow.—Dry 
calcareous hills. A. VII.—IX. E. I.

2. Eryvtura#a Renealm. 
1. E. pulchella (Fries); st. erect much branched acutely qua- 
drangular, 1. ovate the uppermost oblong-lanceolate, fl. all 
stalked axillary and terminal, cal, rather shorter than the tube of 
the opening corolla, lobes of the cor. elliptic-oblong obtuse.— 
E. B. 458.—St. quite simple, 1 in. high and single-flowered ; or 
very much branched, even from the base, 6—8 in. high, with very 
numerous flowers. Radical 1. very few. Inflorescence forked, 
the lateral fl. distant from the floral leaves. The length of the 
tube must be observed exactly at the time when the flower is 
about to expand.—Sandy ground. A. VII.—IX.

gular, 1. elliptic-oblong the upper ones acute, fl. nearly sessile 
corymbosely panicled, cal. not half as long as the tube of the 
opening corolla, lobes of the cor. oval.—E. B. 417.—St. 6—18 
in. high, usually simple below. Panicles of fl. lax. Laterai fl. 
apparently stalked but sessile between the small floral leaves. 
Radical 1. numerous.—Dry pastures. A. VIT. VIII. Common
