IV. A week arro I found a Liatris , differenty from L. pycnostachya an d L. scariosa. 



V. When Eugen brought branches of Vitis indivisa from the bottom, he also 

 had a branch (wathout fruit) of which he Said it grew on the same plant. The leaves 

 had about this shape y *v 



were sometahat wooly on the undersifte (but the leaves on Vfie fruit branche s were not ; 

 on the contrary, they were sraooth on both sides) and looked so much like grape leaves 

 that I thought that that was what they were, but since they differ from the other 

 leaves, I thought Eugen raade a raistake. I took the branches with fruit for Cornus. 



I found Gentiana ochroleuca . At what tirae does G. rubricaulis flower? 



Sincerely, 

 Th. C. Hilgard 



Postcriptum. The Ghenop. plants are only flowering at the top, but I believe we should 

 still collect them. 



When TyndaleS 1 / are passing through St. Louis on their way here, please be so 

 kind and give them my insects. I don't know whßre to obtain such kind of good 

 specimens.
