Explanation of the Index 
Following the list of genera with their sheet numbers, the species are 
arranged alphabetically, preceded by their sheet numbers and number of speci¬ 
mens, and followed by the genus under which they are filed* Underlined species 
names include specimens which are judged, merely by the labels, to be in the 
category of "types*” Starred names include authentically named specimens, 
almost always from the herbarium of the author* Quotation marks are used for 
names which have apparently remained unpublished. This index is not intended 
to give nomenclatural status to any of these indications.
