PREFATORY NOTE.

The importance to Nebraska botanical students of the paper entitled an
“ Appendix to the Catalogue of the Flora of Nebraska," prepared by Mr.
Herbert J. Webber, M. A., formerly assistant in botany in the University of
Nebraska, now assistant in the Shaw School of Botany, St. Louis, warrants
its republication by the University. It was published originally in the Trans-
actions of the Academy of Science of St. Louis (Vol. VI., No. 1, March 12,
1892.) The present edition differs from the first only in the correction of a
few minor errors, and the rearrangement of the index.

In his preface to the first edition Mr. Webber explains that '‘ the names of
those reporting species follow in every case the name of the species reported
as it occurs in the Appendix. The collector whose name follows the species,
it must be understood, is to be taken as authority for its occurrence, as in
many cases I have not had the opportunity to examine the specimens. Thus
specimens here reported must be understood to be preserved in the herbaria
of those reporting the species, or in the Herbarium of the University of Ne-
braska.”’

, The ‘‘ Supplementary List" (p. 45 et seq.) includes all the species of plants
added since Mr. Webber’s paper went to press. It consists mainly of the ad-
ditions made by Mr. P. A. Rydberg, a graduate student, in his collecting tour
through the western counties in the summer of 1891, with others made by
members of the University Botanical department, and Dr. H. Hapeman of
Minden, and Rev. J. M. Bates of Valentine.

Specimens of nearly all the species reported in both lists, are deposited in
the University Herbarium.

It is hoped that the periodical publication of accessions to the flora of the
state will stimulate botanical students to a closer study of our native plants,
and encourage them to deposit specimens of newly discovered species in the
University Herbarium. To this end correspondence is solicited by the Depart-
ment of Botany.

easily distinguish between the two in the Nebraska material sent
him, which, to my certain knowledge, was collected in similar lo-

. M. vestita Hook. & Grev. In ponds in many places in the
State; Fairmont, Bradshaw, Minden, Geneva. Apparently not
occurring east of the Blue River. The Fairmont specimens col-
lected in 1890 agree with the variety tenutfolia in the hairiness,
and shape of the leaflets, but nearly all the specimens collected
this year (1891) fully agree with the specific characters of M.
vestita. A few specimens were received which were more hairy,
and whose leaflets were narrower, but upon investigation these
were found to be terrestrial forms. In some cases these tenui-
folia-like forms were connected directly with the iarger smooth
and broad leaved aquatic forms. The season of 1390 was a very
dry one which probably accounts for the small size of the plants
and the hairiness and narrow growth of the leaflets (Bessey).

from Artemisia cana which it otherwise resembles. It is known
under the name of ‘‘ White sage.”’

In Coulter’s Manual Zurotia is described as dicecious. Watson in

linear-filiform, revolute; bracts ovate, densely villous, as is also
the calyx, with grayish, slightly tawny hairs (Rydberg).

327. P. sp. P. candidus var. occidentalis Gr. of Pringle’s col-
lection, according to Dr. Britton. It is, however, clearly no
variety of P. cundidus, but may be of P. gracilis, Nutt., of the
south, to which it is nearly related. It differs from P. gracilis in
having more oblong leaves, longer more lax spikes, and glandular
dotted calyx. Dr. Britton says if distinct from P. gracilis it is
clearly a distinct species (Rydberg).

200. PSORALEA L. Psoralea.

328. P. pigiraTa Nutt. Aurora (Williams). Much confounded with

belong here. Nebraska specimens collected by Dr. Bessey, have
been referred to P. digitata by Dr. Britton (Rydberg).

32¥. P. FLORIBUNDA Nutt. This species, I think, should not be merged
into P. tenuiflora Pursh. It is either a distinct species or a well
marked variety. P. floribunda Nutt. found in eastern Nebraska
has generally 5 oblong leaflets, 1-1} in. long; many flowered ra-
cemes; lower calyx teeth longer; and larger flowers. P. tenuiflora
Parsh, of western Nebraska, has 3 oblong-oblanceolate leaflets,
4-3 in. long; few flowered racemes; and punctate, colored calyx
with equal teeth. Dr. Britton, to whom specimens and my notes
upon them have heen sent says: ‘‘ I had concluded that P. flori-
bunda could not go unnoticed into P. tenutiflora.’? The matter
needs more investigation. Most of the localities for P. tenuiflora
in the catalogue of Nebr. Flora belong to P. floribunda. The only
specimens of the true P. tenuiflora I have seen are those collected
by Dr. Bessey, at Ft. Robinson, and my own, from the plains of
Deuel Co., Aug. 1890 (Rydberg).

hundreds of miles from any of its known stations, adds another
puzzle to the many connected with the geographical distribution
of the plants of the plains. It is known to occur in the Black
Hills of South Dakota and the Rocky Mountains in Wyoming and
Colorado. In Minnesota it is found near Pepin; it is absent from
Iowa, while in Missouri itis confined to the southeastern part.
It is doubtfully reported as occurring in Kansas. That it should
be found in Central Nebraska is certainly unexpected (Bessey).

Mr. Rydberg has noted two forms or varieties of Physalis be-
longing to the lanceolata group but differing enough from P. lan-
ceolata to be distinct. I give below his descriptions in brief :—

No. 1. Glabrous or minutely hirsute on the calyx and the angles
of the stems, erect, branched above; corolla yellowish with darker
spot, only 5-7 lines across; anthers yellow; fruiting calyx in-
versely pear shaped; fruit greenish yellow; leaves lanceolate,
sparingly toothed. ‘*Sand draws,’ Deuel and Banner Co.’s July,
1890 (Rydberg).

No. 2. Slender, ascending; leaves oblong, lanceolate to oblan-
ceolate, entire; calyx hispid; corolla, anthers, and fruit like the
preceding; fruiting calyx globose. Near Pumpkin Seed Creek,
Banner Co., Aug. 1890 (Rydberg).

This includes Pentstemon glaber Pursh var utahensis Watson, of
Swezey’s Nebr. Fl. Plants, p. 12; from Lewellen.

The habit is rather peculiar, growing as it dues in very loose
sandy places, the sand blowing here and there frequently banking
up around it, modifies leaves and stems already formed. It is
usually ascending, the lower portion of the stem running for some
distance under the loose sand with no modification except a re-
duction of the leaves from lanceolate to linear and finally to
filiform, or to mere scales. Many of the linear ones are quite
long and expand somewhat above if the surface is reached
(Webber).

94. VERBENACE/E.

231. VERBENA L. Vervain.

374. V. BRACTEOSA X HASTATA. In a pasture 1 mile W. of Mead,
Saunders Co., in June, 1890, there were found a few specimens
of a Verbena, which undoubtedly is a hybrid between V. bracteosa
Michx. and V. hastata L. The specimens are of the size and gen-
eral appearance of V’. hastata, but branched from the base and
ascending. The leaves are of the size of those of V. hastata but
more div.ded like those of V. bracteosa. The bracts are like those
of the latter. Dr. Engelmann mentions several Verbena hybrids
but not this (Rydberg).

broadly elliptical, or slightly obovate, 13 to 23 broad by 29 to36m
mm. long, mostly about 22 by 31 mmm., epispore smooth, light-
brown, constricted at the septum, slightly thickened at the apex,

Sorosporium cuneatum Schofield, n. sp. Glomerules nearly globose,

38 to 48 mmm. in diameter, mostly about 44.5 mmm., bright
brown, composed of from forty to fifty spores: spores 9 5 to
11 mmm. long, crowded, and in optical section cuneate in outline,
all minutely roughened on the basal (exposed) surface.

In flower heads and stems of Grindelia sguarrosa Dunal. Lincoln,
Nebr., in the autumn of 1891.

The fungus attacks not only the heads, completely destroying the
achenes, but it attacks the stem also, producing gall-like enlarge-
ments. The spores in the stem are formed immediately under the
bark. :

In California, according to Dr. Harkness, Sorosporium californicum
Hark. attacks Grindelia robusta Nutt., reducing the flower-heads to
one-third their natural size. In Nebraska the same reduction oc-
curs on the lower branches of Grindeclia squarrosa Dunal., but on
the upper branches the parasite has the opposite effect, enlarging
the heads to more than double their natural size.

violet or blue with a whitish tube, somewhat funnel-form 2 lines
long; stamens exserted; calyx with prominentribs. The plant is
more or less glandular all over. Mr. John Holzinger of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture has named it Gilia pinnatifida, which without
any doubt, it is not, as the plant is more branched, more glandular,
the division of the leaves few and longer and narrower, and the
corolla smaller and not at all salverform. Itstands nearer G. in-
conspicua, from which (if distinct) it differs in being more robust,

151.

Physalis mollis Nutt. var. cimerascens Gray. The leaves are broadly

ovate, 2 in. long, angulately toothed or repand, very thin; pub-
escence stellate or simple (even a little glandular,) yery short, ex-
cept on the calyx, the pedicels, the petioles and younger parts of
the stem, where it is long and soft; petioles as long as the leaves or
longer; corolla greenish-yellow with a darker spot; anthers yellow;
fruiting calyx globose-ovate. Under the cliffs on the south side of
Scott's Bluff, July 20, 1891, (R.)

Physalis sp, (near P. hederefolia Gray.) Leaves scarcely over 1 in.

long, ovate, thickish; petioles generally shorter than the blades;
fruiting calyx globose, about 1 in.; pubescence short, with a few
long hairs, a little glandular. According to Mr. Holzinger it stands
nearest P. hederzfolia, but it differs from the description of that
species in Gray's Synoptical Flora, in that the pedicels are much
longer, the leaves, larger and less toothed, and that it is very
little glandular. It approaches P. fendleri. Prairies near Ash-
ford, Banner Co., Aug. 6, (R.)

(?) Physalis palmeri Gray Leaves thickish, ovate, angulately toothed;

petioles of the length of the blade which is 1-1 4% in.; fruiting calyx
ovate, (about an inch) ona slender pedicel. Stem low and nearly
prostrate, strong scented; pubescence viscid, with short hairs. Sandy
banks of a draw southwest of Sidney, Aug. 18. P. palmeri has
been collected in southeast California, and this is entirely out of
its supposed range. It may, therefore, be something else, (R.)

Physalis longifolia Nutt. (P. lanceolata Michx, var. evigata Gray.)

I believe that this has a very good right to be separated from P.
lanceolata. as the berry is ye//ow, stalked in the calyx which is ovate,
less angled and xo¢ sunken at the base; the bottom of the calyx,
stipe, and lower part of the berry g/w//nous, as if it were painted
with molasses. Lawrence Fork, Banner Co., July 8; Kimball, Aug.
12, 1891, (R.)

Physalis viscosa L. var. spathulefolia Gray. Low, 6-10 in. high,

prostrate or nearly upright; pubescence short and stiff, or more

commonly, scarcely any except on the calyx, where it is hispid;
leaves obovate or spatulate, tapering into the petiole, nearly entire;
fruiting calyx globose-ovate, scarcely angled, very little sunken at
the base; berry yellowish green; corolla % in. wide, greenish-yel-
low with a darker spot. In P. lanceolata it is 24-34 in. wide and
ochroleucous. Sand draws of Western Nebraska, June and Aug.

Asclepias stenophylla Gray. (No. 1677 of the catalogue), and deer-
ates auriculata Engelm. (No. 383 of the Appendix) are in reality
but one species of Asclepias. In a subsequent note (Sot, Gaz.
