          "Euphorbia depressa" of your Catalog, is certainly the true 
maculata, agreeing precisely with the original specn. [specimen] in Herb. Linn. [Linnaean Herbarium]
& with Plukenet's synonym. 
"E. maculata" of your Catalogue is as certainly hypericifolia. 
The original specn. [specimen] is smooth, like yours, but there is a downy vary. [variety]
from Jamaica, from Browne's herbarium. Linns. [Linnaeus] seems subsequently 
to have confounded his original smooth specn. [specimen] of hypericifolia,
(numbered 17, as in Sp. Pl. ed. 1 [Species plantarum, 1st edition]) with maculata; not that they are 
at all alike, nor is there any foundation for his remark in 
the 2d. Mantissa [Mantissa plantarum, 2nd edition], p. 392. The 1st. edn. [edition] of Sp. Pl. [Species plantarum] is here decisive 
authority. I have also the hypericifolia, smooth like yours, 
from the East Indies, wild.
"Viola blanda." I agree with you. 
"V. striata, Michx. [Michaux]." I have this for debilis of Michx.
"Mitella cordifolia." Is, I think, not at all different from 
M. nuda Herb. Linn. from Siberia, wch. is a synonym of Pursh's 
reniformis. Lamarck's figure confirms my opinion. 
"Ranunculus pusillus" seems my flagelliformis in Rees's
Cyclopaedia (n. 13), with more oblong leaves. 
"Hedyotis pumila." A new species, near trinervis and
hirsuta. I must beg to refer you to my articles 
Hedyotis & Oldenlandia in Rees's Cyclopaedia, where I have 
endeavoured to settle these genera & their species. 
For "Windsoria pallida" I thank you, but surely 'tis a Poa!
"Ammi capillaceum Michx." New to me.
"Xanthium maculatum Rafque. [Rafinesque]." I think it X. orientale,
wch., unluckily for its name, is an American plant. Are 
you acquainted with this Mr. Rafinesque? 
"Alisma parviflora Pursh." I think a good species, 
the flowers being so very much smaller than A. plantago.
