A REVISION OF KALM S HERBARIUM IN UPSALA 
*7 
tions, which are undoubtedly made from specimens of Kalm’s. About 
60 of these were evidently new to science when described by LlNN/EUS, 
as he gives no other reference than Kalm. All these are to be found 
in the list of »North American plants first described by Linnaeus» given 
in my previous paper. As a supplement to that list I will here enume¬ 
rate the species known before LlNN^EUS to which he has attached a 
reference to Kalm. The oldest synonym of each species, as given by 
Linnaeus, is also quoted, by adding the name of the author and the 
year in which his work was published in brackets. 
Chamcecyparis thyoides (L.) B. S. P. Cupressus th. L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Pluk. 1700), 
»in Canadge subhumidis. Kalm.» 
Elymus canadensis L. Sp. pi. 1753 : (Moris. 1699), »in Canada. Kalm.» 
Eragrostis capillaris (L.) Nees. Poa cap. L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Moris. 1699), »in Virgi¬ 
nia, Canada. P. Kalm.» 
Panicum clandestinum L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Sloane 1709), »in Jamaica. Pensylvania. 
Kalm.» 
Carex folliculata L. Sp. pi. 1753: »in Canada. Kalm.» In Sp. pi. II is added a sy¬ 
nonym from Pluk. 1700. 
Aletris farinosa L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Pluk. 1705). N. plant, gen. 1751: described from 
Kalm’s specimens. 
Allium canadense L. Sp. pi. App. 1753: »in Canada. Kalm.» In Syst. XII he added 
a synonym from Boerh. 1727, and in Sp. pi. II he quoted: »Kalm it. 3. p. 79.» Kalm 
(ibid.) identifies the plant with »A. arvense, odore gravi, capitulis bulbosis rubentibus. Gron. 
flor. virg. 37», a synonym which Linn, has not mentioned. 
Helonias bullata L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Pluk. 1691); N. plant, gen. 1751, from Kalm’s 
specimens (with fig. 1). 
Uvularia sessilifolia L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Cold. 1743), »in Canada. Kalm.» 
Habenaria psycodes (L.) Sw. Orchis psyc. L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Raj. 1704), »in Ca¬ 
nada. Kalm.» 
Comandra umbellata (L.) Nutt. Thesium umb. L. Sp. p. 1753: (Pluk. 1700), »in 
Pensylvanise, Virginise pascuis siccis. Kalm.» 
Anemone quinquefolia L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Pluk. 1691), »in Virginia, Canada. Kalm.» 
Syndesmon thalictroides (L.) Hoffmgg. Anemone Thai. L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Pluic. 1691), 
»Canadensis planta a D. Kalmio lecta» is described. 
Arabis lyrata L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Gron. 1739), »in Canada. Kalm». 
Potentilla canadensis L. Sp. pi. 1753: »in Canada. Kalm.» In Sp. pi. II he added 
a synonym from Moris. 1680, which seems, however, very uncertain. 
Rubns occidentalis L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Raj. 1704), »in Canada. Kalm». 
Spircea tomentosa L. Sp. pi. 1753 : (Pluk. 1696), »in Philadelphia. Kalm». 
Polygala sanguinea L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Pl-UK. 1700), »in Virginia. Kalm.» 
Rhus hirta (L.) Sudw. First described by Bauh. 1623. Linn, got specimens of the 
plant from Kalm and described them in Sp. pi. 1753 as Datisca hirta. In Cent. II. plant. 
1756 he described the same plant as Rhus typhina L., with a reference to Bauh., but 
without mentioning the former name or Kalm’s specimens. 
Hibiscus palustris L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Dodon. 1583), »in Virginia. Gronov. Canada. Kalm.» 
Tilia americana L. Sp. pi. 1753: (Pluk. 1700). The »trivial» name (americana) is 
given by Linn., but the »specific name» (floribus nectario instructs Kalm) is taken from 
Kalm’s »En kart berättelse etc.» of 175 1 - 
2—2118. Sv. Linné-Sällsk. Arsskr. IV.
