 other original copies are filmed beginning on the 
 first page with a printed or illustrated impres- 
 sion, and ending on the last page with a printed 
 or illustrated impression.

 It.shoidd be remembered, however, that the ran«i-(> oiven is often the

 the Re\ i.-ion are not included iimon«i' those cited in the Mono«,rraph, 
 so that the latter work re])resents a jjfreat extension of the horizon .so 
 fur as it can be furnished by material. 
 
 It has been thought wise to assist in th(> recoj^nition of genera by 
 includiiijLJf in the text illustrations of chai'ucteristic fruits, showing; ))oth

 illustrated either l)y a ])luteor by ut leust two text cuts. A few of the

 makes a variety of B. Incittt'i Ruiz it I'avon. In many ways our })lants seem nearer 
 to B. inirra Spreng. than to any other described species, hut that is a Brazilian form.

 The iliscovery of A', articiilnliiiii in its type locality hasenalileil us to drai' u]i t he 
 confusion that has arisen in reference" to this species, which has liecome a pcrplexiuf: 
 ii.trtrrc^atc. Leiherx^'s specimens seem to he exact ihi|)licates of those of < Jeyei-. It is 
 evident that the numerous later c<illections that have hei'U named /■,'. nrlirii/nliiiii 
 ha\f lu'en wrouii'ly rel'i'i-red, and umst he looked foi' elst'where. In <'onnection with 
 the oriLrinal desci'iption Hooker piihlishes a lield note of < ieyer, which desciilies the 
 hahit of the plant so well that \\t' ([iiote it as I'ollows: 
 
 "In April the yonnir plants are wholly suhmcr^ed, and presi'iit the ap|iearanie of 
 some articulated .hnii-iis, the Icaxi's, or rather the petioles, heuifx similarly terete and 
 jointed. < U\ emer<:injr above the water tlu'.sc pctioU's expand into laiidn.i' at t he top, 
 retaining the jointed swollen character in the costa. The radical petioles are s to In 
 inches lonjr. Those of the stem, in proportion as they are out of the water, become 
 flattened and the maririn spinuloso-ciliate.""

 We reproduce the above key in the hope that it may he fnrtiier tested in the field. 
 
 for with the material at our 
 command we have not been 
 al)le to follow it fully. While 
 we reco)fni/e in I'rofessor 
 (ire« lie's typical material the 
 differences sufrgesteil, we do 
 not find them con.stant. The 
 fleshy thickening; of the root- 
 .xtocks and their direction, a-^ 
 well as the thickne.'<sand elon- 
 gation of the roots, seem to 
 vary with the nature of the suh- 
 stratum, as might Ir; expected. 
 Nevertheless, we find that the 
 differences thus suggested to 
 Proft'ssor (Jreene have served 
 to call attention to what seem 
 to U8 iKjtter characters upon 
 which to base his specici^. 
 Aside from the curious bulbiferous habit of ('. hnlliifcni, the other species seem to 
 be best grouped primarily by their obUmg or orbicular fruits, further separation being 
 made upon differences in thefniit ribs and in the foliage. 
 
 We have included, chiefly under <'. DcriilniUtliK, several forms which we<lo not feci 
 justified in separating, but which better and iiujre abimdant material may prove to 
 be worthy of indepi-ndent rank.

 Two additional forms can not he referred to either of the above speeies, but oiir 
 
 material is too meager to justify definite characterization. They are as follows: 
 
 A form from the southern Sierras of California, collecte<l liy liniluoik (no. liStil, 
 September, 1SV5, at an altitude of 2,940 meters, has the general characterH of S. 
 erj/iHjiifvliinn, but the leaflets are elongated linear and montly entire. 
 
 A form from Fresno County, Cal., collected by Mrs. Jicnivoti Pcckhipah, October, 
 1890, has large leaves, with large and crowded lanceolate to ovate, irregularly serniH' 
 or toothed, more or less confluent segments; rays more slender and idongated, bear- 
 ing smaller heads. The i)lant has the i)allid look and somewhat scaljrous foliage of 
 S. irjiiiglifoliiiiii, but otherwise seems (]uite distinct. Our specimen is in yoiiiij: 
 flowering condition. 
 
 The following si)ecies, recently described an ScUniDn rfilkht)n by Mr. J. AV. Cohl'- 
 don, in l''.rythea 7:185. 1900, certainly belongs in the genus S})hrni)m(i(liuni, but wluM I nr 
 it is specifically distintit or not weare not prepared to state. Mr. C'ongdon promist'il iis 
 material, Imt was not able to furnish it in time for this jiaper. His description islvrc

 A plant of the mountains of southeastern California, collected by I'lirpiin (no. r)(itil ) 
 at "Farewell <iap," altitude l,0!tO meters, in lHit7, is not associated geographically 
 with any known Lii/iisticuni. It suggests L. ixntrri sonu'what, which grows in norlli- 
 em Arizona, but it is aeauleseent, with small fruit (4 to 5 nnn.) and prominent coni- 
 cal stylopodium.

 a)pear acaulescent, .so far a.M the aerial habit is concerned, the cluster of leaves ainl 
 llowerinn stems forming a rosette which seems to Ix! usually ])rostrate. H(Mieath tl'C
