tinct sp. stem pedal, leaves small semiuncial, 
peduncles uncial, corolla nearly entire, stamens 
subequal, styles deeper cut, stigmas really glo- 
bose. Evidently not the C. tenelius of Elliot. 
870. Stylisma elliptica Raf. stem twining 
terete pilose, leaves petiolate elliptical hardly 
pubescent, base subcordate, end obtuse mucro- 
nate, peduncles uniflore subequal to leaves with 
two minute bracts, calix smooth, segments ovate 
acuminate, capsule hirsute — sent me from Ala- 
bama and Georgia, trailing or twining for 2 or 
3 feet, leaves uncial, style bifid, 2 globose stig- 
mas. My Styl. sherardi , Convolv, do Pursh. 
Elliot, a doubtful plant differs from this by leaves 
retuse and sessile flowers. 
871. Stylisma peduncularis Raf. Convolv. 
tenelius Lin ? Elliot &c stem flexuose pilose, 
leaves subpetiolate elliptical obtuse mucronate 
ciliolate, base subcordate, peduncles elongate 2 
or 3 times the length of leaves 2 or 3flore, calix 
smooth, segments ovate acuminate bracts mi- 
nute, capsule bearded — Alabama and Florida, 
near the last but larger leaves, stifflong pedun- 
cles, style deeply divided, stigmas obtuse. The 
Conv. tenelius of Elliot only differs from my 
specimens by peduncles 3-5flore, calix ciliate 
<£c. — But his C. trichosanthes my Stylisma do, 
differs much being quite tomentose &c. 
Having obtained both the Evolvulus sericens 
of Cuba collected by Jalambic and that of Flo- 
rida from Baldwin ; they appear alike, except 
that the stem is nearly smooth in the Cuban 
specimen, pilose in the Floridan. 
872. DARLUCA Raf. calix 5parted equal 
persistent, corolla tubular hirsute outside irre- 
gular subbilabiate, lips 2 and Slobed. Stamens
