2-6-flowered; pedicels very short; corolla purplish, 6-8 mm. long; 

 calyx much shorter than the corolla and the broadly oval acute pod. 

 In dry soil, Mo., Kans., Ind. Terr, and Ark. 



P. 564, after Lespedeza Virginica, insert: 



7a. Lespedeza simulata Mackenzie & Bush. Similar to L. Vir- 

 ginica, 9 dm. tall or less, erect or nearly so, the stem pubescent to nearly 

 glabrous. Leaflets linear-oblong to linear-elliptic, 3 cm. long or less, 

 4-10 mm. wide, appressed pubescent on both sides, strongly so beneath; 

 flower-clusters dense, on peduncles shorter than the leaves; corolla 

 purple, 6-8 mm. long; calyx 5-6 mm. long, its linear acuminate lobes 

 twice as long as the tube; pod oval, acute, scarcely exceeding the calyx- 

 lobes. In dry soil, S. Penn., Mo. and Ind. Terr. Aug.-Sept. 



P. 564, before Lespedeza angustifdlia, insert; 



9a. Lespedeza velutina Bicknell. Velvety Bush-clover. With the 

 habit and appearance of L. capitata, but densely soft-velvety all over, with 

 somewhat cinereous pubescence, the younger parts velvety-canescent, 0.5- 

 1.2 mm. high, often bushy-branched above; leaves crowded, ascending, the 

 petioles 3-7 mm. long; leaflets oblong, narrowed to the base, rounded at 

 the apex, 25-40 mm. long, 8-18 mm. wide, velvety on both surfaces, 

 tomentose-ciliate; inflorescence very dense, of crowded short clusters; 

 corolla 7-8.5 mm. long, about equalling the calyx-lobes, the standard pure 

 white, with purplish-streaked centre; pod narrowly rhomboid-oblong, 

 narrowed to each end, 5-6 mm. long, 2.5 mm. wide, canescently pubescent, 

 much shorter than the calyx-lobes. Low thicket near Woodlawn, N. Y.

P. 580, after Kallstroemia maxima, add: 



2. Kallstroemia hirsutissima Vail. Hirsute Caltrop. Stout, hir- 

 sute, paler green than K. maxima, usually much branched. Sepals 

 linear-subulate, bristly-hirsute, 3.5-45. mm. long; fruit 6-8 mm. long, 

 the stout persistent style about the same length. Plains and prairies, 

 Kans. to Colo., Texas, N. Mex. and Mex. 



P. 607, after Acer rubrum, insert: 



2a. Acer Carolinianum Walt. Southern Red Maple. Similar to 

 Acer rubrum, but the leaves dark green above, pale beneath, the con- 

 trast between the colors of the two surfaces being quite striking; leaves, 

 or many of them, 3-lobed, obovate, mostly narrowed at the base. The 

 bark is lighter gray than that of .4. rubrum. Moist soil, E. Penn. and 

 N. J. to Fla., Texas and Mo. [A. rubrum tridens A. Wood.] 



P. 617 after Tilia heterophylla, add: 



4. Tilia Michauxii Nutt. Michaux's Linden. A large forest tree, 

 sometimes 30 m. tall, with furrowed bark. Leaves firm in texture, 

 7-22 cm. long, acuminate, serrate, whitish-pubescent beneath, dark 

 green and glabrous above, the base usually very oblique. Floral bracts 

 spatulate, attenuate downward and decurrent in the peduncle to 

 within 1-3 cm. of its base (in T. heterophylla decurrent on the peduncle 

 to its base or very near it, and there rather abruptly narrowed); 

 staminodia spatulate; fruit oval or globular, 7-1 1 mm. long. In woods, 

 Pa. and Ohio to Ky., Ga. and Ala. June-July.
