Dr. J. N. & G. Rose, no. 24,085 (Gr., U. S., N. Y.). 
This species in its group and region is unusual for its many-flowered 
heads with large thin subequal involucral scales (about 7 mm. long 
and 2-3 mm. wide), which are somewhat diaphanous and violet- 
tinged toward the tip.

This plant is clearly related to E. wrubamense Robinson with which 
it shares many traits. However, that species differs in having much 
greater pubescence, the leaves being grayish-tomentose beneath; 
its corolla is 4.8 mm. long, and the involucral scales are broader, 
decidedly thinner and more translucent, the outermost being loosely 
pubescent. 
E. LAVANDULAEFoLIUM DC. Prod. v. 159 (1836). In a recent 
paper on the Peruvian species of Eupatorium, Proc. Am. Acad. ly. 
55, the writer was able to record this species only on the unsatis- 
factory basis of specimens collected in Peru without stated locality 
by Haenke and in South America (presumably Peru) by Dombey. 
‘Two undoubted specimens of the species, corresponding in all regards 
to the material of Haenke and Dombey, have recently become 
available at the Gray Herbarium, and for the first time in the history 
of the plant afford a record of its more exact locality. Both the — 
Mens come from Oroya, Dept. Junin, Peru, one having been collect
