LABIATES. 
In this family much remains to be done even 
after the labors of Bentham and mine in ft. tel- 
lur. Our Gr. Pycnanthes , Teucrium, 13 run- 
nella , Lycopus , Mentha , Salvia , Monarda, 
Scutellaria &c are yet susceptible of revision 
and improvement. My G. Euhemus 1830 
Med. ft. for Lycopus Virginicus and akin sp. 
must be admitted like my Blephilia , Vleckia , 
Blephiloma and others of ft. tellur. I shall only 
add now a few presumed new species, others 
are in 2d part of this work. 
978. Mentha cinehea R. cinereous pubes- 
cent, leaves subsessile ovatoblong acute sharply 
serrate, spikes terminal verticillate naked, bracts 
subulate equal to flowers, stamens included — in 
the W elsh Mts. of Alleghanies in Pennsylv. dis- 
covered 1804 again 1834, habit of M. tenuis 
less odorous, root creeping, many stems erect, 
pedal almost hirsute, leaves uncial quite cine- 
reous beneath, less above, spikes short, flowers 
small white, calix and bracts cinereous almost 
canescent. — I have several other sp. of Mint, 
31. capitata , 31, deniata , pectinata , ciliata , 
trachiloma &c, but some are doubtful, and the 
two last belong to P ulegium like M. canaden- 
sis and borealis. 
979. Vleckia bracteata R. leaves petiolate 
cordate acute grossly serrate, spike sessile 
bracts also and ovate acute foliose longer than 
flowers — in Florida, pedal, stem fuscate, leaves 
uncial not large, spike sessile, rather short, bracts 
large remarkable. This perhaps may form a 
subg. the habit and flowers are of Vleckia, but 
calix more campanulate striate with very une- 
qual teeth, P salion Raf. see fl. tel. 786,
