Hypericum gentianoides (L.) B. S. P. Sarothra gent. L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Pluk. 1700). 
The generic name was given by Linn, in N. plant, gen. 1751, where the plant was descri¬ 
bed from Kalm’s specimens. 
Lechea minor L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Raj. 1704). The generic name was given by Kalm 
in N. plant, gen. 1751, where Linn, described the plant from specimens of Kalm’s and 
Clayton’s. 
Direct palustris L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Gron. 1743). The generic name was given by 
Linn, in N. plant, gen. 1751, where the plant was described and drawn (fig. 7) from Kalm’s 
specimens. 
Nyssa aquatica L. In Gen. plant, ed. V of 1754 the genus has this heading: »Nyssa. 
Gronov. per Kalmium.» The synonymy of the species seems to include the whole genus, 
but from the diagnosis »fol. integerrimis», the reference to Ivalm, and the words in Syst. 
XIII »alia fob integerrimis quae nostra», we may infer that he did not know the southern 
plant now called N. aquatica, but only some northern species of this genus. 
Gaultheria proezunbens L. Sp. pi. 1753; Sp. pi. II: (Tournef. 1700). The generic 
name was given by Kalm in N. plant, gen. 1751, where Linn, has described and drawn 
(fig. 6) the plant from Kalm’s specimens. 
Kalmia a?igustifolia and latifolia L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Pluk. 1696). The generic name 
was given by Linn, in N. plant, gen. 1751, where both species were described from Kalm’s 
specimens. 
Lobelia kalmii L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Tournef. 1700), »in Canada. Kalm». 
Cineraria canadensis L. Sp. pi. II 1763: (Bauh. 1620), »in Canada. Kalm». Nuttall 
changed the name to Senecio Kalmii. The reference to Kalm may be due to some mistake, 
for according to A. Gray’s Syn. FI. of N. Amer., p. 383, the specimen in Linn:s herb, 
belongs to Senecio cineraria Dc. and is not indicated as being of American origin. Bauh:s 
species was certainly from Europe. 
Krigia virgmica (L.) Willd. Tragopogon virg. L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Gron. 1739), »in 
Virginia, Canada. Kalm.» 
Lachtca ca?iade?isis L. Syst. X 1759; Sp. pi. II 1763: (Tournef. 1700), »in Ca¬ 
nada. Kalm.» 
Lacttica spicata (Lam.) Hitchc. Sonchus canadensis L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Gron. 1739), 
»in Canada. Kalm.» 
Senecio canadensis L. Sp. pi. 1753: »in Canada. Kalm.» In Syst. nat. XII a syno¬ 
nym from Pluk. i 700 (whithout figure and dubious) is added. According to A. Gray’s 
Flora, p. 383, Linn:s own specimen belongs to the European S. artemisiifolius Pers. 
Even in later time new species have been described from specimens 
of Kalm’s. Of these I have only observed the following: 
Tofieldia ste?iopetala Sm. Trans. Linn. Soc. XII 1817, p. 243, t. 8. f. 1: »America 
borealis. Kalm.», from a specimen in Linnaeus’ herb. Not mentioned in Britt, and 
Br:s Flora. 
Vaccinium canadense Kalm ex Richardson, Frankl. 1st Journ. 1823, p. 736. This 
and the following species from specimens in herb. Leche, now incorporated with herb. 
Banks in the British Museum. 
Vaccinium vacillans Kalm ex Torrey, FI. of N. York I, 1843, P- 444 - A. Gray, 
in his Manual, attributes this specific name to Solander. 
Whether Bromus Kalmii A. Gr., Man. of the Botany 1848, p. 600, is based on some 
specimen of Kalm’s I do not know.
