238 -PHANEROGAMOUS PLANTS. 



5. YlOLA ADUNCA, Smith. 



Hab. Woods ; Puget Sound, and Gray's Harbor, Washington Ter- 

 ritory. — Specimens of what seems to be this species (also V. longipes, 

 Nutt.), with all the flowers small and apetalous, were gathered on 

 the Spokane Kiver. 



6. Viola chrysantha, Hook. 



Viola chrysantha, Hook. Ic. t. 49 ; Torr. & Gray, Fl. 1, p. 143. 



Var. glaberrima : foliis pedatim 3-5-partitis, segmentis profunde 

 2-7-lobis, lobis lanceolatis integris. 



Hab. High, dry prairies between the Spipen River and the Colum- 

 bia. — A remarkable variety, found only in the station here recorded. 

 The divisions of the leaves are said by Dr. Pickering, in his notes, to 

 be "curved upward, and not growing in one plane." The flowers 

 resemble those of the ordinary state of this species, the upper petals 

 being purplish and the others yellow. 



[From the habitat and the character, this may be inferred to be 

 the Viola Hallii, Gray, recently published in the Proceedings of 

 the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, 8, p. 337.]
