Foster, Padilla, and others consider T. funckiana specifically distinct, while Rauh considers it a variety of T. & ana, although he has not gone so far as to give it a valid name. Foster's own collections show a great variation in stem length of flowering plants and are the original and continuing reason for my reducing T. funckiana. In reality we can not be sure until flowering T. andreana is collected from the topotype locality. What is a much more interesting question is the position of the species within the genus. Technically it can be said to belong in subgenus Tillandsia but the corolla is asymmetric like those of most species of Pitcairnia and the recurving petal-tips expose the shorter of the unequal stamens.

Soc. 21: 65, fig. 1971. TIL. At first glance T. califanii so closely resembles T. achyrostachys that it is easily mistaken for that species. However, its densely lepidote floral bracts quickly distinguish it and even bring it out to a different position in the key from T. achyrostachys. The leaf-sheaths are slightly different from the original description in that their scales are brown-centered like those 1974, Smith, Notes on Bromeliaceae 31 on the blade. The sheath-color is derived from the dark tissue below showing through the large pale scale-margins and covers only the base of the sheath. CARLOS-HANKII Matuda, Cact. & Succul. Journ. (U.

FLORAL BRACTS to 5 cm long; flowers short-pedicellate. SEPALS free, to 42 mm long; stamens slightly exserted at anthesis. Var. LONGISPICATA Rauh, ined. INFLORESCENCE bipinnate; branches ascending relative to the axis, 40 cm long, the sterile base only 6-15 cm long. FLORAL BRACTS 35-40 mm long; flowers sessile. SEPALS connate for 2 mm, to 30 mm long; stamens much exserted at anthesis. Var. BREVISTIPITA Rauh, ined. INFLORESCENCE tripinnate at base; branches ascending relative to the axis, the basal sterile bases to 20 cm long; spikes 12-15 cm long with sterile bases 3 cm long. FLORAL BRACTS 30 mm long; flowers sessile. SEPALS connate for 3 mm, ca. 25 mm long; stamens much exserted at anthesis. Owing to the relatively short floral bracts of the above variety, my key has had to be realigned to bring forward the fleshy character of the floral bracts. All three varieties have dense spikes with floral bracts 4-6 times the internodes where they are barely more than 2 in nearly related T. ecarinata. CIRCINNATOLDES Matuda, Cact. & Succul. Journ. (U. S.) 45: 187, fig. 4, 4a, 5, 1973, as "circinnatioides." TIL. Matuda gives other distinctions than the sulcate leaves cited above but they are all covered in the very variable characters of T. circinnata. Horticulturists will thank him for giving a name to a taxon that was becoming a problem. CRETACEA L. B. Smith, sp. nov.

EDITHAE Rauh, ined. ALL. This takes the place of T. nana Baker, which was placed here because of its supposed simple inflorescence. fT. nana takes the place of the later T. calocephala and Rauh has pointed out the close relationship with his T. edithae. Besides its simple inflorescence, T. edithae also differs in its shorter broader leaf-blades with spreading scales and in its larger petals. EIZII L. B. Smith, sp. nov.

STUDIES IN THE LIABEAE (ASTERACEAE). II. PRELIMINARY SURVEY OF THE GENERA H. Robinson and R. D. Brettell Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560 Two related papers have been concerned with the tribal status of the Liabeae and with the four genera of the Liabeae that have been classified in four separate tribes (Robinson & Brettell 1973; Robinson & Cuatrecasas 1973). The major remain- ing problems that are treated in this paper involve the detailed analysis of the primary genus, Liabum, and the summary of the revised generic concepts of the tribe. The present treatment recognizes fourteen genera in the tribe Liabeae with the increase derived entirely from the dissection of the overly expanded concept of Liabum. As conceived by Bentham (1873) and Hoffmann (1894), Liabum included a variety of habits equal to that in the vast genus Senecio. All illusions of an intergrading series disappear on examination of microscopic structures. Supporting evidence is obtained from pollen, style branches, corolla shapes, stipules, raphids, minute details of pappus, stomates on corollas, exothecial cells, nectaries, ray flower length, ornamentation of receptacles, corolla and achene pubescence, carpopodia, filaments and phyllaries. The characters have all proven to correlate rather well with macroscopic features and all the resulting genera can be recognized by a combination of habit, leaf venation, inflorescence form and pappus. The relationships among the Liabeae prove to be much more complex than previous treatments would indicate. Some general groupings are obvious, however. The Munnozia group is particularly distinct withthe black anthers, distinct disk corolla tubes, very prominent rays, short raphids in the achenes and short style branches. The Paranephelius group has pale anthers large pollen with simple spines, long raphids in the achenes and long style branches. The Liabum group has comparatively small spores and rather short rays and includes many variations having sometimes shrubby habits or filiform style branches, short raphids in the achenes, very narrow tubes of the disk corollas or corolla lobes without evident stomata. The remaining groups including Sinclairia and Austroliabum have long raphids in the achenes, large pollen with more complex spines and intermediate length style branches. The analysis of the tribe indicates that the reduced habit of a few more basal leaves and a small scapose inflorescence has evolved in four 43 Lh PHYTOLOGIA Vol. 28, no. 1 separate groups, Liabum, Liabellum, Chrysactinium and Pseudonoseris. The eppapose condition has evolved in two genera, Cacosmia and Philoglossa. Most of the microscopic characters used in the tribe are easily seen in dissections but two characters require special notice. The raphids in the achene wall are inside the cells of the various layers and usually cannot be seen without a clearing agent. A clearing agent such as Hoyer's solution is definitely required to observe the differentiated cell tips in the pappus of Liabum, Oligactis and Chionopappus. In water only the slightest differentiation of the cell tips can be seen but the combination of clearing and the altered index of refraction in Hoyer's solution reveals a very small thin-walled acumination or apiculus on the tip of each tooth. The pappus character is often difficult to see but in only one species in the group of three genera, Liabum domingense, has it proven to be lacking. This study has benefited from reference to extensive notes maintained by Dr. Jose Cuatrecasas and from Liabum material on loan to Dr. Cuatrecasas from the Field Museum in Chicago. The genera can be distinguished by the following keys. The first key uses the more obvious characters while the second key attempts to reflect more of the relationships. Key to Genera ie Corolla tube abruptly expanding into rather tubular base of limb; anther thecae partly or totally black; style branches rather short, not more than ten times as long as wide; heads usually on very long slender unbranched peduncles, never congested 2 1.

The genus was originally described with mention of two unnamed species (Ruiz & Pavon 1794). Four species were later described (R&P. 1798). Cabrera (1960) in his notes of the types of the four species indicated that only two had been annotated as new genus. Of these two, M. lanceolata seems the most completely known and it is here selected as the lectotype. Key to Subgenera 1.

ADDITIONS TO THE GENUS TAXIPHYLLUM (HYPNACEAE, MUSCI) Harold Robinson Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560. The genus Taxiphyllum has seemed rather lacking in charact- ers and has been subject to many mistreatments during bryological history. There has been confusion with other rather flattened ecostate forms such as Plagiothecium and Isopterygium which are not really closely related. Attempts to fully distinguish the genus have usually involved the structure of the broad pseudo- paraphyllia around the lateral buds which are distinct from the types found in Isopterygium but which are not always present and are not distinct from the types in many other pleurocarpous mosses. The present concept of the genus is summarized well by Ireland (1969) for North America. The only more recent addition is Taxiphyllum andersonii (Bartr.) Crum. The species of Taxiphyllum are flattened with usually spreading lateral leaves and a vestigial double costa. In addition, most of the species have somewhat shortened apical cells and the leaf cells project on the upper ends abaxially. The alar cells provide a significant lack of differentiation. The combination of characters provides the impression of a rather distinctive genus with broader limits than generally recognized. Recently, specimens and descriptions have been noted that indicate the genus Taxiphyllum should be expanded to include an additional pair of species presently placed in the genus Pterigynandrum. Under Pterigynandrum filiforme Hedw. there is a variety mexicanum Thér. and in the Eastern United States there is Pteri- gynandrum sharpii Crum & Anderson. The latter species, a renaming of the enigmatic Hylocomium splendens var. tenue Sharp, was placed in Pterigynandrum by Crum and Anderson (1967) with admitted reservations and at the same time the non Pterigynandrum nature of var. mexicanum was fully recognized. Both entities lack the fully developed quadrate alar cells of Pterigynandrum and they have more irregular cells on the apical margins. True Pterigynandrum has much more prominent almost bulbous papillae on the ends of its leaf cells, often on the lower ends as well as the upper, a feature not seen in either P. sharpii or the variety mexicanum. The alar cell structure of Pterigynandrum filiforme is basically different and agrees with peristome characters in relating the genus to the Entodontaceae. The variety mexicanum and P. sharpii have no evident relationship to that family. A recent collection by Dana Griffin from South America has shown the same combination of characters noted above in the 6h, 1974 Robinson, Additions to Taxiphyllum 65 disparate element of Pterigynandrum. The slight differences of leaf shape, brevity of leaf tip and serrulation indicate only species, not generic differences. The Griffin specimen (718; VENEZUELA: MERIDA: Distrito Libertador: El Maciegal, cuenca de la quebrada "La Pedregosa," afluente del rfo Chama. Bosque residual. Plantas sobre roca en lugar semi-soleado. 1980 m) is apparently a second collection of Taxiphyllum machrisianum Crum, originally described from Goids in central Brazil (1957). At the time of description Crum noted the primary anomalous feature of the species as a Taxiphyllum, the erect-spreading rather than very widely spreading leaves. The proper generic placement of the above species cannot be resolved without consideration of an additional genus, the one in which Taxiphyllum andersonii was originally described. The genus Glossadelphus has been broadly interpreted to include some smal] mosses of the general Taxiphyllum type. The genus Glossadelphus as established by Fleischer (1915- 1922)consisted of two distinct groups of species. The first section, Colophyllum Fleisch., had species with leaf tips rounded to slightly emarginate and leaf cells when papillose often bear- ing papillae in series over the cell lumens. The apical cells are very irregular with both adaxial and abaxial projections. The papillose species of this group have much the appearance of Hypnella in the Hookeriaceae and have the same inclination toward counterpart species or phases differing in no way but presence or absence of papillae. The common papillose American species of Glossadelphus as well as at least one African species have actually been redescribed or described as Hypnella on the basis of non-fruiting specimens (Robinson 1965, 1967). The species of this section form the most distinctive element of Glossadel- phus and I propose that the common American species Hypnum truncatulum C.MU11. be recognized as the type of the genus. Also included in Glossadelphus by Fleischer was a second section Anastigma (Card.) Fleisch., transferred from Taxithelium. All the forms resembling Taxiphyllum belong in this section. The species are rather like typical Glossadelphus in general aspect with similar size and similar erect-spreading rather blunt leaves. The details of the leaves, however, suggest a very different element. Iwatsuki (1967) has pointed out that two species often placed in this group have a single very enlarged cell at the basal corner and belong in the genus Ectropothecium, E. zollingeri (C.MU11.) Jaeg. and E. obtusulum (Card.) Iwats. Material seen in this study under the name of another species of the group, Glossadelphus prostratus (Doz. & Molk.) Fleisch., lacks the large basal cell and is more like the American species. further examination of this and other Eastern Hemisphere species may confirm relationship to Taxiphyllum machrisianum. It is the present opinion that such material must be excluded from the 66 PHY T'O-h O'Gr & Vol. 28, no. 1 genus Glossadelphus and that Crum was correct in the generic placement of his South American species. The American species I would place in this group of the genus Taxiphyllum include: Taxiphyllum machrisianum Crum, Contr. Sci. Los Angeles Mus. 18: Be 957i. Taxiphyllum mexicanum (Thér.)

STUDIES IN THE EUPATORIEAE (ASTERACEAE). CXX. ADDITIONS TO THE GENUS KOANOPHYLLON IN PANAMA, R. M. King and H. Robinson Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560. The present paper provides some results of the study of the genus Koanophyllon for the Flora of Panama. The studies have shown that three of the four species in the country require taxonomic changes or description. One species is raised from varietal rank where it has been associated with K. hypomalacum (B.L. Robinson) R.M.King & H.Robinson of Guatemala. The Guatemalan species differs by its distinctly puberulous leaves and by its short partly carnose bracts in the inflorescence. The two new species differ from their relatives by both having densely hirsute young stems and petioles. The two new species can be distinguished from each other by the shape of the involucral bracts and by the number of flowers in the heads.

The new species has a lax habit similar to F. viscidipes (BelAR kere Re and iF. ‘multinervis (Benth ikem both of Guatemala. The former is clearly distinct in the totally dark achenes and the more scabrous more contiguous pappus setae. The more closely related F., multinervis is distinct by the leaves Lacking glands Below, by the longer nearly glabrous pedicels and by the even thiner less scabrous bases on the pappus setae. The material of the new specie shows variation in the form of the glands on the leaves. The specimens from Siguatepeque have smaller distinctly stipitate glands while the glands on the other specimens are essentially sessile. Fleischmannia panamensis R.M.King & H.Robinson, sp. nov.

The plants are very coarse large leaved herbs apparently endemic to Central Panama. The species most resembles a large F. microstemon, but is more closely related to the widely distrib uted F. pratensis. The new species is distinct by its narrow nearly glabrous outer involucral bracts with only narrow scarious margines, by the corolla lobes Lacking hairs and by the somewhat thicker style branches.

The new species is one of many showing narrowly acute involucral bracts with very narrow scarious margins and a lax rather cymose inflorescence. Two related Mexican species, F. trinervia (Sch.-Bip.) K. & R. and F. holwayana (B.LIR.) Ki & Ra, differ by their very short acute rather than acuminate leaves. The latter species also differs by the presence of prom- inent glandular punctations on the lower surface. The new species is somewhat similar to F. imitans (B.L.R.) K. & R. of Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras and Nicar- agua. This last species is distinct in the great number of flowers per head, 30-60, and has leaves and pedicels usually densely stipitate glandular. The new species seems particularly distinct in the usually wide and pubescent pale ribs of the achene. Fleischmannia sonorae (A.Gray) R.M.King & H.Robinson, comb. nov. Eupatorium sonorae A.Gray, Pl.

M. King and H. Robinson Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560. In the years since the revision in the genus concept of Fleischmannia that genus has seemed to hold a rather isolated position in the tribe Eupatorieae. The cellular structure of the corolla and the very narrow very annulated collars of the anthers have always seemed completely unique even though some other characters have tended to imply a simple Gyptoid relationship for the genus. Now, material of a related previously undescribed genus having both the corolla and collar features of Fleischmannia shows other very distinctive features that seem to confirm the isolated position of both genera. The material of the new genus is from the part of the Schultz-Bipontinus Herbarium in the Paris Museum and had already been named as an undescribed genus and species Sartoria eupatorioides by Schultz. The Schultz genus was never published, and in any case the name Sartoria was already preoccupied by a genus in the Leguminosae from the Middle East. The Paris material is obviously a duplicate specimen with part of an inflorescence and one lower leaf from an original that Must have been destroyed at Berlin. The Paris duplicate is Labelled from the Herb. E. Cosson, 18 and bears many notes that must have represented Schultz's observations including one of the most distinctive features of the genus:"nov. Eupat. genus ob ach & pappus connata" "Sartoria n. g., ach. teretia (non striate) oblonga glabra albida apice in cupulam brevem spongiosam expansa e qua pappas oritur 1 ser pilosa” "cap. 22 flora, rec. plana."' A date is given "11/5/54" and a figure "24" which may refer to the height of the plant. The writing may be misinterpreted in a few parts. One of the primary distinctions of the genus as noted by Schultz is the terete achene with a spongiose upper callus. Actually the achene is very different from that of Fleischmannia in many features including its small size, its more tapering base with poorly differentiated carpopodium, and its walls consisting almost entirely of enlarged thin-walled hyalin cells with only narrow vascular strands and no angles. The a7 98 PHYTOLOGIA Vol. 28, no. 1 other distinctive features not seen by Schultz involve the style. The base of the style is enlarged in the one fully mature style examined, unlike any species of Fleischmannia. The shafts of all styles seen are unique among the Asteraceae by bearing scattered non- glandular hairs and long-stalked glands. The stylar appendage of the new genus has papillae smaller and not crowded together as in most species of Fleischmannia. Unfortunately, among all the notes on the Paris specimen there is none giving any collection data even the country of origin. The relationship of the plant does not allow one to pinpoint the locality closer than Tropical America. The only probable clue on the specimen to the place of origin seems to be the name given to the plant by Schultz. It seems likely that "Sartoria'"' was intended to honor Carlos Sartorius 1796-1872 who lived at Mirador in Veracruz, Mexico for most of his Life following 1820. Hopefully the new genus can be rediscovered and further analysed. Sartorina schultzii R.M.King & H.Robinson, gen. et sp. nov. Asteracearum (Eupatorieae).

Moldenke "A DICTIONARY OF FLOWERING PLANTS AND FERNS" by J. C. Willis, Eighth Egition, revised by H. K. Airy Shaw, xdi & 12)\5 & lxvi pp. Cambridge University Press, London MW1 2DB & New Vor N. YW. 200226. 2916 -S52e50. Taxonomic and systematic botanists the world over have appre- ciated this tremendously valuable book since 1897 when the first edition appeared. They will be glad that this even more detailed work is now available since it includes new taxa, newly resurrec- ted taxa, a key to angiosperm families and a concordance of family equivalents as taken from (1) this new-flavored "Diction- ary", (2) the twelfth edition of Engler's "Syllabus" by Melchior and (3) the "Genera Plantarum" of Bentham & Hooker. Now if only the many highly competent other type botanists and biologists to whom plants or plant names are only incidental to their main studies would use this and other pertinent taxonomic literature, much nomenclatural confusion could be avoided! One would not expect that reading a book like this could evoke 1974 Moldenke, Book reviews 103 an automatic smile, but for an example see "Actinotimus Oliv. Imaginary genus, founded through the trick of a native Chinese collector who had carefully inserted an infl. of Viburnum into the terminal bud of an Aesculus!" "ELECTRON MICROSCOPY OF ENZYMES: Principles and Methods" Volume I edited by KM. A. Hayat, xv & 20) pp., illus., Van Nostrand Reinhold Company, Cincinnati, Toronto, London, Melbourne, and New York, N. Y. 10001. 1973. $16.95. "The primary objective of this book is to provide the reader with a detailed description of the methodology employed to local- ize enzymatic activity at the subcellular level.... "The topics were carefully selected and written by competent investigators from several countries who have pioneered in their respective fields.....and are likely to be in the vanguard of im- provements to come.... "The reader should find this book an excellent reference, for it summarizes the major procedures which have evolved within the past two decades. An exhaustive list of references with complete titles is provided for each chapter, as are full author and sub— ject indices." These claims in the Preface are all true and therefore this volume should prove useful to many scientists and students in electron microscopy, enzymology, and those biological and medical fields dependent upon this type of study. The chapters include specimen preparation with emphasis on fixation with aldehydes, phosphatases, glyco- and glucosidases, transaminases, myrosinase associated with the characteristic taste amd odor in cruciferous plants and enzyme immunocytochemistry employing the specificity of antibodies for the detection of cell components bearing antigenic determinants. "PRINCTPLES OF DISPERSAL IN HIGHER PLANTS" Second edition by Leendert van der Pijl, xi & 162 pp., illus., Springer- Verlag, Heidelberg, Berlin, and New York, N. Y. 10010. 1972. $12.60. Those assorted botanists, biologists, ecologists, etc., famil- iar with the 1969 edition of this wonderful little book will be eager to see what has been added or changed in this new edition which also makes fascinating reading supplemented with excellent and unusual illustrations. The best use of this book and its earlier companion volume on "Principles of Pollination Ecology" by K. Faegri and this author is putting them in the hands (really the minds) of those who teach the various introductory courses. These two books offer fascinating and easily comprehensible material and ideas: they are too good to reserve for only advanced students. Unfortunately, the accepted spellings for the generic names 10), PH YelvOrL -Qnait - Vol. 28, now dL Clerodendrum and Petrea are not herein used. The words "man" and "is" are misspelled on pages xi and 97 respectively. "CHROMOSOME BOTANY — and the Origins of Cultivated Plants", Third (Revised) Edition by C. D. Darlington, xvii & 237 pp., il- lus., Hafner Press, New York, N. Y. 10022. 1973. $12.95. The previous editions of 1956 and 1963, and even more so this one, effectively stress "that civilization has always been the work of men who grew grain crops and lived on them. Since we also know (partly by their chromosomes) what wild grains they first grew we also know where to find the origins and how to trace the movements of civilization." Then this well qualified author traces the genetic stories of our major agricultural and horticultural crops, but this follows a very careful treatment of the major chromosomal and intrachromosomal processes and aberra- tions and their effects upon dividing and fusing cells. "The breakage of a chromosome is often the first visible step in the breakage of a species." The bibliography is arranged by chapter topics and has had pertinent new items added to it. Appendix I lists the earliest use in English of names for cultivated plants. Appendix II by E. B. Ford considers similar evolutionary processes in animals. There is a helpful modern table listing the "regions of origin of crop plants (after Vavilov, revised in the light of work by Baker, Barrau, Burkill, Collins, Helbaek, Hutchinson, Kuptsov, Rick, Salaman, Simmonds, Whitaker, Zohary and others)", So many valuable facts and their interpretations are presented effectively in this small, yet very useful, book that no genetics course should bypass it.

It is perhaps worth mentioning here that the Chodat & Hassler (190) reference in the above bibliography is sometimes errone- ously cited as "Plantae Hasslerianae IX, 77"; the Benke (1933) reference is sometimes cited as "Rhodora 10. 1943" or "3h: U5"; and the Pase & Johnson (1968) reference has been cited previously inaccurately as "U. S. Dept. Agr. Forest Serv." In regard to the J.C. & M. Willis (1911) publication, M. Willis is mentioned as 1974 Moldenke, Notes on Verbena 109 co-author on the cover of the work but not on its title-page! Alcock (1876) credits the name, Verbena, to Pliny and says "Speaking of 'Sagmen' and 'Verbena' Pliny says: 'These two names no doubt originally signified the same thing -- a green turf torn up from the citadel, with the earth attached to it, and hence, when envoys were despatched to the enemy for the purpose of clar- igation, or, in other words, with the object of clearly demanding restitution of property that had been carried off, one of these officers was always known as the 'verbenarius', — or bearer of the verbena. The etymology of the name is dubious. It has been said to be derived from Keltic ferfaen, having the same signifi- cance as Saxifraga......The word verbenae (L.) signified general- ly sacred boughs, or branches of trees that were used in religi- ous ceremonials; hence it has been suggested that it is a corrup- tion of two G. words, hiera botane, or sacred plant." Vansell (1931) reports the name "valley vervena" for species of Phacelia in California — obviously a typographic error for "valley verbena", Gibert (1873) cites Gibert 45, hd, 451, 452, & 979 as unidentified species of Verbena, but, “of course, i oo concept of Verbena included Aloysia, Phy Phyla, and perhaps other genera now recognized as distinct. The J. J. P. Simon 477, dis- tributed as Verbena sp., is actually Diostea scoparia (Gill. & Hook.) Miers. It is worth noting that Raeuschel (1797) divides the gems Verbena into two sections: (1) Diandrae (including what we now recognize as Bouchea, Stachytarpheta, and Phyla stoechadifolia) and (2) Tetrandrae (including Phyla nodiflora, Priva adhaerens, Aloysia, Lippia alba, and true , Verbena spp.). Fell (1955) raports of the verbenas of Winnebago County, Il1l- inois: "Variations in individuals and extensive hybridization among our 5 native verbenas produce such a mingling of characters that picking out the parents is difficult and at times quite in- possible. Dr. Moldenke has named some of these hybrids in his account of the genus in the New Illustrated Britton and Brown and he has revised some of our specimens. Hybrids are much more common in some pastures than in others where the opportunity of crossing seems as great. The prairies about Camp Grant and pastures in Kishwaukee River bottom near Perryville road bridge and on River Road south of Cherry Valley are especially prolific. The most common crosses are x rhydbergii and x moechina." Additional excluded species: Verbena undulata Reitz, Sellowia 13: 67. 1961; Reitz, Sellowia 22: 145. 1970 = Lantana undulata Schrank. The L. F. Ward s.n. [Washington, May 18, 1886], distributed as a species of Verbena, is actually a species of Veronica in the Scrophulariaceae.

Dress refers to this plant as having decumbent stems and found it growing "in low barren dry (but vernally moist) ground", Reveal and his associates encountered it on steep mountain slopes, associated with Yucca, Opuntia, and other shrubs. Tharp reports it from "valleys and roadsides". The Spellenbergs describe the plant as forming "clumps with many stems". The corollas on Spellenberg & Spellenberg 3062 are said to have been "pink". The color illustration in the Stacey (1973) article referred to above does not show enough detail to make identification certain, but it seems likely that it depicts V. ambrosifolia. An artificial cross between this species and V. canadensis (L.) Britton is described by Solbrig (1968) but has not been 1974 Moldenke, Notes on Verbena 11 named.

Agarwal (1971) treated seeds of what he says was this species (but I suspect strongly that they were V. tenuisecta Briq.!) with various combinations of thio- and ascorbic acid for 12 hours and 197) Moldenke, Notes on Verbena 3 then let them germinate under continuous light or in contimous darkness. Ascorbic acid affected germination poorly when applied alone, but markedly increased the stimulation caused by thiourea. With increasing proportion of thiourea greater germination oc- curred in continuous light, while with increasing proportion of ascorbic acid germination was greater in continuous darkness. Vyas, Agarwal, & Garg (1971) studied germination and growth of the same species in different soil types and found that field capacity, as well as Ca and organic content of the soil, control the growth and distribution of this species [again, probably pid tenuisecta]. Drar (1970) records V. bipinnatifida as cultivated in the Sudan, but here again it is virtually certain that the plant he refers to is the commonly cultivated V. tenuisecta Briq. Recent collectors have found V. bipinnatifida growing along roadsides, in dry stony rough ground, open neglected fields, and xeric pastures without crops. Lawrence refers to it as a "floppy perennial, 15 inches tall". Ruth refers to it as common through- out Tarrant County and the entire state of Texas. The flowers are sometimes referred to as fragrant. The corollas are described as having been "lavender" on Fryxell 1238 and Lundell & Lundell 12132, "purple" on C. L.

Recent collectors have encountered this plant in grasslands, in "brejo", at the foot of small hills, and (in New Zealand) in "poor dry yellow soil on southerly-sloping hillsides", and as a weed in cotton fields, at 125 m. altitude, flowering from Decem- ber to February and fruiting in December and January. Martin & Noel (1960) assert that it blooms regularly in Australia in Janu- ary and February. It has been described as an erect herb to 2 m. tall. The corollas are described as "lilac" on Hatschbach 28)83 and Philson, Doore, & Nash 234, "violet" on Hatschbach, Smith, & & Klein 28206, pais eiAh on Darbyshire 53h, "Light—purple” on Lindeman & | & Haas 3935, "mauve't on Bayliss BS.2236, and "blue" on MacDaniels 2044. Martin & Noel (1960) describe the flowers as "purple". Paxton (1380) asserts categorically that the plant is "worthless" in cultivation (yet it has been or is in cultivation in at least 16 countries!). In Africa and Australia it is knom as "blue-top" or "purple-top". A French vernacular name for it is "verveine de Buénos—Ayres". Oertel (1939) calls it "blue vervain" and lists it among the “honey and pollen plants" of Louisiana. Venter (1972) refers to V. bonariensis as a "Woody herb on flood sands" in South Africa, flowering there from September to November. Dhillon & Bajwa (1969) describe it as a "weed in gar- dens" in Rajasthan, citing Dhillon 301; Singh (1969) refers to it as "Frequent, along the sides of the sugarcane and paddy fields" in India, flowering there from April to October and fruit- ing from July to October, citing his nos. 19636 & 25497. The Corrells (1972) give its “habitat and distribution in the south- western United States as "Sandy loam, ditch banks, wet or moist flatlands and along rice field fences, in Okla. (McCurtain Co.) and in e. Tex. from Red River to Jefferson cos.", blooming there from April to June. Santa Cruz reports that in Chile it occurs in "Toda la Républica de 36° a 41° Lat. Sur". Baker (1900) tells us that V. bonariensis is "a native of Extratropical South Amarica, is now established at the Cape and in Mauritius, Bombay, Madagascar, and the Canary Islands, but we have no specimens from Tropical Africa". Stewart (1972) asserts that it is "A weed from Brazil which seems to be spreading in Hazara [Pakistan]. It has been found in Abb., Mansera and Than- diani." Waterfall (1949) cites Waterfall 7599 from McCurtain County, Oklahoma — "an adventive in.....roadside ditch -- either recently spread into the state or previously overlooked... It has been known previously from near-by Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana." Watt & Breyer-Brandwijk (1962) report that it "has been sus- 116 Pony OTL OG res Vol. 28, no. 1 pected in Australia of causing abortion in the bovine...No ill effects, however, have resulted from the experimental feeding of 300 gm. of dry flowering plant on each of four consscutive days." Fournier (1961) most amazingly reduces V. bonariensis to syn- onymy under what he calls V. chamaedryfolia {now known as Ve peruviana (L.) Britton], a / species belonging to a completely dif- ferent section of the genus! Perry (1972) reduces it to synonymy under "V. patagonica" {now known as Junellia patagonica (Speg.) Moldenke] -- the plant here referred to doubtless being V. bonar- iensis Rendle rather than the true V. bonariensis of Linnaeus, although no authorities are cited a her. aS SSS SSS SS EE EE [H. N.

Recent collectors have encountered this plant in oven grass- land, along railroad tracks, and on the edges of gravel roads. Smith, in New York, describes it as a gray-green plant "locally abundant in railroad yards, forming mats 3 feet across". Hitch- cock & Muhlick, in Montana, assert that it forms "mats feet wide on roadsides". In Idaho it was found by Baker along road- 18 POR Wor Ok Or Gis A Vol. 28, no. 1 sides in sagebrush-grass zones. Higgins (1949) cites Higgins 6788. Desfontaines (180)) records the French common name "verveine a longues bractées". The corollas are described as "bluish" on Lundell & Lundell EP "lavender—blue" on Dress 4089 and Plow- man & man & Kilham AP.91, "pale lavender—blue" on Dress 1887, "pale-_ lilac" on Dr Dress ss 886, and "pink" on S. J. Smith ith 270). Wilkinson & Jaques (1972) assert that the sp species is "widely distributed in waste land. Often takes over part of a barnyard", flowering from May to September. Bennett found it in moist open ground in the Transition Zone of New Mexico. The Corrells (1972) describe its habitat and distribution in the southwestern United States as "Low and newly cleared land, in mud about lakes, ponds and along sloughs, river bottoms, grassy places, waste ground and roadsides, in Tex. from the Trans~Pecos and Plains Country through the Edwards Plateau e. to Newton Co., Okla. (Waterfall), N. M. (widespread) and Ariz. (throughout state), Apr.—Cct.; almost throughout the w. U. S. and s. Can., introd. and local eastw." Ellis, Wofford, & Chester (1971) record it from Trigg County, Ken- tucky, while Eilers (1971) says that it is infrequent along low sandy roadsides in Benton, Blackhawk, Delaware, Floyd, Lim, and Tama Counties, Iowa. Evers (1955) avers that, * although "Nabun— dant along roadsides", this plant was seen only once on a hill prairie in Tllinois. Paxton (180) asserts that it was intro- duced into cultivation in England in 1820. Black (1971) reports that this is a plant with only low photo- synthetic capacity: 702 grams of water are required to produce one gram of dry matter. Delorit (1970) describes the seeds as follows: "Oblong in out- line; about the same width throughout except usually slightly wider at the base. Dorsal side convex, its margins winged dow- ward; ventral side granular, two-faced forming a longitudinal ridge where they join. Both ends of the seed usually bluntly rounded. Dorsal side usually with five longitudinal ribs, and oc- casionally four, which are joined by transverse ribs in the upper one-half of the seed forming a prominent network of veins. Inter- rib spaces large, shallow, usually flared or wider at the base. Seed scar oval, oblique, white. Golden-brown to reddish-brown, 2.0—2.), mm long, 0.7——-0.9 mm wide." In speaking of his V. rudis, regarded as a synonym of V. brac- teata by most authorities, Gre: Eons (1900) says "Its remarkable _ thick woody perennial meats alone would completely separate it from V. bracteosa." He describes it as a common weed "of road- sides and cultivated lands." Material of V. bracteata has been misidentified and distribu- ted in some herbaria as Veronica serpyllifolia var. neomexicana Cockerell. Additional citations: NEW YORK: Chemung Co.: S. J.

Sanchez Sanchez found it (1969) in the pedregal of the Valley of Mexico, blooming there in July. The. Roe & Roe 2418, distributed as V. gracilis, is actually V. canescens H.B.K., while H. E. Moore 1625 is V. menthaefolia Benth. The Lemmon 2858, cited below, is probably an isotype of V. ariz- onica A. G Gray. The label on the specimen reads "Tanner's 3 Cafion, Huachuca Mts. July 1882.

The Corrells (1972) comment that "In dry fields and pastures a field-form is developed with the leaves more canescent—puberulous beneath and slightly rough above, the stem many-branched, and the terminal inflorescences in many groups, all more or less equally dense", My son, my wife, and I have observed this curious form many times in dry pastures in the mid-western states. It seems to me to be worthy of nomenclatural recognition, but this has as yet not been done. Crum (1972) records V. hastata from Black Hawk County, Iowa, where he notes that it inhabits marsh edges and moist prairies, is frequent, and flowers in July. Ellis, Wofford, & Chester (i971) record it from Trigg County, Kentucky. Wherry (1971) found it in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. Wilkinson & Jaques (1972) de- scribe the species as "Common in moist places", flowering from June to September. Bradley (1955) records it as "fairly common in open swamps" in Fairfield County, Connecticut. Benner (1932) re- ports it as frequent in low ground, especially in waste places, and cites from Bucks County, Pennsylvania, a collection by Ruth from Monroe, by Long from Rich Hill, Morrisville, Hmilie, and Grenoble, by Fretz from Pleasant Point, by Meredith from Doyles- town, and by MacElwee from Tullytown. Torrey (1843) gives its habitat in New York state as "Wet meadows and margins of creeks", blooming from July to September. In the experience of my son, my wife, and myself in observing this species for many years in the northeastern and middle Atlan- tic states, this is an accurate description of its normal habitat in this portion of its range. Eilers (1971) records it as common in marshes, on moist prairies, and in open alluvial woods in Ben- ton, Black Hawk, Bremer, Buchanan, Butler, Cerro Gordo, Chickasaw, Delaware, Floyd, Grundy, Hardin, Johnson, Linn, and Winneshiek Counties, Iowa. Raeuschel (1797) gives its native home as "Cana- da". Sone (1911) describes it as "One of the components of the typical late summer flora of the damp meadows and swamps of the Middle district [of New Jersey] along with Eupatorium maculatun, E. perfoliatum, Asclepias pulchra, Vernonia noveboracensis, etc." He also notes that it inhabits "Open moist ground" and is "common throughout the State, except in the Pine Barrens, where it is ab- sent", flowering from "Late June to early September", Paxton (18,0) tells us that it was introduced into cultivation in England in 1810, but is "worthless" horticuiturally. Fell (1955) says that in Winnebago County, Illinois, V. hastata is "Common on roadsides and in open woods and pastures "put usually in damp soil. X rydbergii Moldenke, a hybrid with V. stricta is common and variable." Blewitt (1926) records V. hastata as fre- quent at Waterbury, Connecticut, in "Fields, roadsides and waste places, in moist and dry soil", ” flowering there in July and August. Willis (1880) reports it from Haste places about dwellings" in Westchester County, New York. Oertel (1939) states that it is a 216 P Hiei TO Ly0nG ys Vol. 28, no. 2 honey and pollen plant in Texas, while Martin and his associates (1951) assert that its seeds are eaten by such birds as the stilt sandpiper, lark bunting, cardinal, junco, and field, song, swamp, tree, and white-crowned sparrows and the entire plant is eaten by cottontail rabbits. Stuckey & Wentz (1969) report that V. hastata is an infrequent species upstream from Lima, Ohio, inhabiting river bottams. Pollu- tion of the river has caused it to be completely absent now dowm- stream from that city. The same is now true of Eleocharis obtusa, Eupatorium perfoliatum, Juncus torreyi, Scirpus atrovirens, Siu suave, and Sparganium eurycarpum. These same species are wide- spread and generally common in roadsides and drainage ditches where the city pollution into the river has not reached them. It should be noted that the "Verbena pinnatifida Lam." of Nair & Rehman (1962) is most probably a misidentification of V. tenui- secta Briq. The 0. E. White son. [27 Aug. 1916], distributed as V. hastata, is actually var. var. scabra Moldenke. Recent eoiieetors have found V. hastata growing in meadows, open pond banks, and wet soil in general. The corollas on Molden- ke & Moldenke 9886 are described as having been "blue", but since I am more or less colorblind to reds, it is probable that they were actually the normal purple of the typical form of this species. Delorit (1970) describes the seeds of V. hastata as follows: "Oblong in outline; about the same width throughout. Dorsal side convex, its margins winged downward; ventral side granular, two- faced forming a longitudinal ridge where they join. Both ends of the seed usually bluntly rounded. Dorsal side usually with three to five weak but rather broad-based longitudinal ribs with a few weak transverse ribs which frequently occur only between the mar- gins and the first adjacent longitudinal rib. Transverse ribs usually occur only in the upper one-fourth to one-third of the seed. Seed scar oval, oblique, white. Dark reddish-brow to al- most black, 1.7--2.0 mm long, 6. 7—-0.9 mm wide." Rimpler. & Schafer (1973) have isolated the chemical "hastato- cid" fram this species and V. officinalis L. The corollas on E. C. Leonard 20629 are described as having been "purple", the usual color for the typical form of this spe- cies, in spite of the fact that the most commonly used English vernacular name for it is "blue vervain", perhaps indicating a wider prevalence of red-colorblindedness in the general populace than is usually assumed. The H. G. Smith s.n. (Berkeley, Colo.], cited by me in a previ- ous installment of these notes as typical V. hastata, seams better placed as var. scabra Moldenke, as are also the Ramaley 12393 12393 & 12890 distributed in some herbaria as typical V. hastata. Ho Hotch- kiss 1561 is probably xV. engelmannii Moldenke, Horr L691 691 is xv. xV. rydbergii Moldenke, and F Field Mus. Econ. Pl. 5669 is is not verbena- ceous.

Recent collectors have found this plant growing in low meadows and in sandy soil of Yucca-Artemisia-Rhus communities. Brandegee refers to it as "very abundant, 5--8 feet tall” on Bouldin Island, California. It has been collected in flower and fruit in August and at altitudes up to 500 feet. The Corrells (1972) assert that it "differs in its more rigid leaves that are conspicuously scab- rous above and often more or less comspicuously pubescent boneath", They state that it is known from Hemphill County, Texas, and give its overall distribution as "a western form of the species, B.C., Ida., Mont. and N.D. to Calif., N.

The Angely (1971) work cited in the bibliography above was previously cited as "1970", the title-page date, but was actually not issued until 1971. The Eitens describe this plant as a low shrub and found it grow- ing at altitudes of 2300-250 meters on open sedge-grass slopes and "On planalto of steep hilly terrain, many hills topped with mountainous outcrops of bare sienite quartz, the hillsides with frequent rounded outcropping quartz rocks and boulders and a thin black almost pure humus soil supporting a periodically-burned nat- ural tussock sedge-grassland with scattered low Chusquea bamboo and occasionally other shrubs, the lower valley sides often with dense Chusquea brakes or brooks lined with a marsh of Cladium in tussocks or with 'trunks' of massed rhizomes."

Burpee (1972) offers a cultivar named "Ruffled White" which he describes as "Superb sweetly scented variety producing large well- filled trusses of pure white flowers so freely the display has the appearance of a white carpet" and offers it in a packet of seeds for 75 cents, 1/16 ounce for $2.25, 1/2 ounce for $.25, and 3/h ounce for $8. He offers "Rainbow Mixed Colors" ("Early flowering, upright plants. Ideal for pots, window boxes and bedding. Wide color range. Ht. 8 in."), "Ideal Florists' Mixed Colors" ("Earliest free-flowering strain with large flowers in an exceptionally wide range of colors. Most of them 'eyed'. Height 10 in."), "Sparkle Mixed Colors" ("Very good rich range of col- ors"), and "Fynest Mixed Colors" ("Includes rose-pink, lavender, blue, white, violet, salmon-pink, scarlet and red shades. Many teyed'") , In his 197) work he adds "Ruffled Pink" — a "delicate salmon-pink, better foliage, earlier and more vigorous than Miss Susie." He describes his muffled" types as a "Unique miltiflora gigantea type bearing semi-—double ruffled flower clusters that look like balls of color", 10 inches tall. He also refers to these as "Burpee's Semi-Double". Jackson & Perkins (1973) offer a "Florist Strain Mixed" Ver- bena which they describe as "will provide a low growing carpet of bright clear color all summer. Our variety grows a neat 8 to 10 inches high and spreads to 18 inches - quickly filling window boxes or flower pots. Florist Mix includes white, pink, purple, scarlet -— many of which are accented with white in the center. The more of the sweet-smelling branches you cut, the more new shoots the hardy little plants will produce." Lasser, Braun, & Steyermark (197) record this plant as culti- vated in Venezusla. My wife and I personally saw it widely cul- tivated in Ceylon, India, and Pakistan in 197), and I saw it also growing in parks and home flowerbeds in Egypt that same year. It seems most probable that the "Verbena phlogiflora Cham." of Huang (1972) is actually xV. hybrida. Ellis and his associ- ates (1971) record xV. hybrida | as growing wild in Lyon County, Kentucky, doubtless escaped from cultivation or merely persistent after cultivation. Misra (1970) asserts that it is a "Weed in shade" in Bihar, India, J. W. Peterson describes the corollas of his collection, cited below, as "corolla lobes RHS Neyron Rose 623/1 distally, proximal- ly RHS Neyron Rose 623; throat of lobes white". Bayliss encounter- ed the plant in cultivation at 5600 feet elevation in South Africa. Burkill (1966) says "The garden V. hybrida hort., seems to have been evolved by the hybridization of four ‘our species, Vv. chamaedry- folia, Juss., V. phlogiflora, Cham., V. incisa, Hook., and V. teucrioides, Gill. and Hook.; but the history — is not quite clear. All the four species are South American plants, and were brought together in gardens in the nineteenth century. V. hybrida does not fruit in Malaysia, as the clime is too moist. The presumed parents are perennials...." [to be contimed] BOOK REVIEWS Alma L. Moldenke “FLORA PALAESTINA" Volume Two Platanaceae to Umbelliferae by Michael Zohary.

On similar separate scales there are 20 plates for Alaska and 16 for Hawaii, our other two states. On the op- posing pages there are descriptive and analytic texts. On each map much uncluttered, graphically neat material is shown, such as: physiography, precipitation in each form, frost penetration, air and surface water temperatures, seasons of highest and lowest surface water run-off, aquifers, fish kills from pollution, popu- lation distribution, thermal springs, and projected water supply and demand for 2000 A.D. This source book of important information can be and certainly should be used by not only hydrologists, but also urban and land use planners, ecologists, wildlife management biologists and political leaders who will have important choices and decisions to make or urge. "DRAWINGS OF BRITISH PLANTS" Part XXXI by Stella Ross-Craig, un- paged, 6 plates, & index, G. Bell. & Sons Ltd., London. 1973 fis7h). £2. The excellently detailed line-drawings on these plates are for 222 197) Mol denke, Book reviews 223 native members of the following plant families: Lemnaceae, Alis-. mataceae, Butomaceae, Juncaginaceae, Scheuchzeriaceae, Potamoge— tonaceae, Ruppiaceae, Zanichelliaceae, Zosteraceae, Najadaceae and Eriocaulaceae. This is the last part exclusive of a comprehensive index now in preparation. British sedges are covered by Jermy & Tutin with illustrations, and British grasses are covered by C. E. Hubbard, also with illustrations. "THE CONDENSED CHEMICAL DICTIONARY" Eighth Edition revised by Gessner G. Hawley, xiii & 971 pp., Litton Educational Pub- lishing Inc., Van Nostrand Reinhold Co., Melbourne, London, Toronto, Cincinnati & New York 10001. 1971. $27.50. This book and its earlier editions for over a half century have been in prominent places for practical and frequent use on the desks and library shelves of many kinds of chemically orien- ted students, scientists, technicians, teachers and of non- chemists stymied by chemical problems or terminology incidentally or critically related to their own fields of endeavor and under- standing. To the botanically oriented readers of this journal this new edition of the dictionary becomes of increasing value because of the tremendous advances in the biochemical approach to life's nature, workings, and problems. In addition to the vir- tue of accuracy, this book has those of directness, clarity and easy legibility. "DEVELOPMENTAL SYSTEMS: INSECTS" Volume I edited by S. J. Counce & C. H. Waddington, xiii & 30) pp., illus., Academic Press, London NW 1 & New York 10003. 1972 [1973]. 8.5 or $18. This volume consists of five valuable papers, each equivalent to a condensed and well referenced book. The first paper is Mahowald's "Oogenesis" in which the panoistic and the meroistic types are analyzed. The second paper is Jura's "Development of the Apterygote Insects" with the embryogenesis of both entogna- thous and ectognathous members of these four orders. The third paper is Anderson's "The Development of Hemimetabolous Insects" which surveys the detailed embryology of known examples from eleven orders, describes the immersed growth or anatrepsis in some and concludes that there are more similarities realized now. The fourth paper is the same author's "The development of Holo- metabolous Insects" in which he shows this type, found among al- most as many orders, as derived from the hemimetabolan with the obvious innovation of the change in ratio of cytoplasm to yolk making possible a more direct and rapid development. The fifth paper is Ivanova-Kasas' "Polyembryony in Insects" in certain Hymenoptera and Strepsiptera. In these two orders "simi- lar biological conditions (parasitism and vivipary) have brought 22h PHYT 01.0.6 1-8 Vol. 23, no. 2 about one and the same phenomenon of polyembryony, attained, how- ever by different evolutionary routes." On the first page of text chromosome is misspelled; on the last page of text in the quote above a comma is omitted. Otherwise this book with its fine illustrations and indexes of authors, subjects and scientific names matches the expected fine quality of Academic Press publications. "THE COMPLETE BOOK OF TERRARIUM GARDENING" by Jack Kramer, ix & 146 pp., illus., Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, N. Y. 10017. 1974. $9.95. Only a popularly oriented book would presume to place "complete" or "all" in its title, and that choice is usually the fault of the publicity or advertising staff rather than the author(s). Because this book actually is so thoroughly and well presented and is most effectively illustrated by photographer Mathew Barr and artist Michael Valdez, it comes closer to anything in print at present or probably anything in the near future to earning such a title. It is really such a good book that it does not need the artificial bolstering that such a title would offer. It will prove so helpful and intriguing in its detailed directions with all its different shapes and materials for the containers and with its long lists of various sized plants for woodland, bog, desert and tropical type terraria. Aralia is misspelled on page 52. "FLOWERING SHRUBS AND SMALL TREES — One Hundred and Sixty Nine Varieties for Your Garden" by Jean Hersey, iii & 81 pp., il- lus., Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, N. Y. 10017. 197k. $7.95. For the garden enthusiasts, whether of the dirt-digging or arm- chair type, this attractive book literally centers about 15 full pages of these 169 plants drawn in beautifully colored sprays by Allianora Rosse and grouped according to blooming seasons. For each there is accompanying text with the necessary growing in- formation in outline form and with statements of special inter- est as to origin, use, myths, etc. The word "write" is misspelled in the foreword. Any finitely limited work almost always provokes in readers! mind the thought that "But so-and-so should really have been in- cluded", especially if the candidate would be in good company and well treated. I feel that the widely adaptable chaste-tree, Vitex agnus-castus f. latifolia, was ostracized undeservedly.

Robinson & Brittell, Phytologia 27: 54. 1973, not Senecio epiphyticus 0. Kuntze, 1898. The genus Nelsonianthus proposed recently by H. Robinson and Brittell seems dubiously distinct when considered in the context of the vast genus Senecio. However the species des— cribed seems amply distinct from other species of Senecio known to me from tropical America. Senecio armentalis is an attrac— tive epiphytic species found on the highest elevations of Cerro Marfa Tecum in the Guatemalan Sierra Madre where it occursin the open forest, usually on oaks. The basis for the name Nelsonianthus is not given but I assume that it is for E. W. Nelson who collected this species near Calel in the Department, of Quezaltenango at 11,000 feet on January 20, 1896, his collection number 3682. Material of our own collections from the same general area are being distributed. These are Williams, Molina & Williams 41719, 41723 and 41747. CONVOLVULACEAE IPOMOEA TRILOBA L. Sp. Pl. 161. 1753; Standley & Williams, Fieldiana, Bot. 24, pt. 9: 58. 1970. I have had the pleasure of travelling through Mexico, and in Central America as far as Nicaragua during November and December 1973, at the end of an especially heavy rainy season. There were literally millions of acres of land abundantly covered with Ipomoea triloba in flower. It is everywhere in disturbed areas 225 226 PRY) LT O0L 0 GTA Vol. 28, no. 3 and perhaps most common from some 400 to 800 meters elevation although it goes to near sea level and occasionally is seen as high as 1,500 meters. This species must be the commonest and most abundant weed from Vera Cruz to Nicaragua and further south. GRAMINEAE HYPARRHENIA RUFA (Nees) Stapf in Prain, Fl. Trop. Africa 9: 304. 1918. Trachypogon rufus Nees, Agrost. Bras. 345. 1829. Swallen, Fieldiana, Bot. 24, pt. 2: 170. 1955. Jaragua grass is native of Africa and was doubtless taken from Africa to Brazil as a forage grass. It is thought | to have been introduced from Brazil to Honduras by Tiburcio Cartas (president of Honduras 1932-1947) and sown as a pasture grass on the government farm in the Zamorano valley, probably in the early 1930s. This grass was well established in the Zamorano valley in the mid=1940s when I went there and had essentially driven out Panicum maximum Jacqe, a much superior pasture grass also native of Africa. Panicum maximum, Guinea grass, was so common and widely known in Central America that the usual name for it was zacate or zacatén, which translates simply as Nerass™ (om Mipis: grass!" Jaragua is a tall, rough, and when mature a very tough grass that most animals can not eate It has been the common practice to burn over Jaragud pastures in the dry season to clear them and to make available the tender young grass as the rainy season starts. The rhizomes of the grass are resistant to fire so that it is the surviving plant over millions of acres of Mexican and Central American pasture lands. The native grasses and forbs that are not resistant to fire are killed out in the annual burnings . Jaragua is now naturalized in most open or pasture land of Central America from a bit above sea level to some 1,600 meters. It is the dominant cover in many places. The feraen covered hills can be very beautiful at the end of the rainy season but in the dry season it forms a rather unattractive cover. When Jaragua and Ipomoea triloba grow together, at middle and lower elevations, they may form a thicket that is almost impenetrable. HAMAMELIDACHK AE MATUDAEA TRINERVIS Lundell, Lloydia 3: 210. 1940. Dr. B. F. Kukashka wrote in October 1973 and suggested that i cheeks ion several trees being cut commercially and exported by Maderas Centro América, S. A. of Matagalpa, Nicaraguae Among these was a tree the lumber of which is being marketed in the United States as varaz6én, the local name in Nicaragua. Upon the basis of wood specimens Dr. Kukashka thought the tree to be a Distylium (=Molinadendron). 197 Williams, Tropical American plants 227 Professor Molina R. and I visited Mr. Dharam Yadav at Matagalpa in November 1973 and were given specimens of the varaz6én. Flowering material will be supplied as soon as the tree comes into flower. There seems no question that the tree is Matudaea trinervis and that it adds an important commercial timber to those known from Central America. The genus Matudaea, named for the well known Mexican bot- anist Eizi Matuda, was discovered in the state of Chiapas, Mexico as recently as 1940. Standley found the genus in Guate- mala soon afterward and reported it in the Flora of Guatemala. Standley, Molina and myself have made a half dozen collections in Honduras since 1950, where the common name is reported as esquiro. Salas and Taylor found the species at “La Fundadora", Department of Matagalpa, Nicaragua in 1957 and reported the common name of guayabo. The foresters of Maderas Centro América, the largest saw mill operators in Central America, now report the species as an abundant and very fine commercial timber in the Cordillera Isabelia (=Cordillera Central de Nicaragua), a tree to 35 meters or more tall and to about one meter in diameter. RUBIACEAE BORRERIA EXILIS L. Wms. nom. nove — Borreria gracilis Le Wms. Phytologia 26: 487. 1973, not Miq. ex Hook. nor Scheele. Dr. Joseph Kirkbride has called my attention to the improper use of the name Borreria gracilis which I applied to a Costa Rican species. A specific name with the same meaning is substituted. PSYCHOTRIA CALOPOGON L. Wms. sp. nov. — Subg. Hetero— psychotria. Arbusculae usque ad 2.5 m. altae pilosae. Folia elliptica vel late elliptica acuminata pilosa, laminae usque ad 30 cm. longae; inflorescentia pedunculata paniculata multiflora; calyx dense pilosus, lobi anguste lanceolati acuti; corolla alba, tubi cylindrici, lobi ovati acuti pilosi; stylus tubo subaequilongus, stigma bilobatum; fructus desideratur.

A representative of a complex group of taxa related to P. pilosa Ruiz & Pavén of South America. The Central American specimens called P. pilosa are a mixture of several species. PSYCHOTRIA CHRYSOCALYMMA L. Wms. spe nove — Subgenus Heteropsychotria. Arbusculae usque ad 2 m. vel ultrae, ramuli dense piloso—pubescentes. Folia petiolata elliptica acuminata utrinque pubescentia usque ad 15 cm. longa; inflorescentiae laterales longe pedunculatae subumbelliformes; hypanthium et calyx dense et breviter pilosum, lobi angusti lanceolati acuti; corolla alba extus pilosa, lobi oblongo—lanceolati; fructus anguste ovoideus pubescens porcatus. Shrubs to 2 m. tall or perhaps more, the branches densely and softly short pilose=pubescent; stipules persistant, with two lateral lanceiform lobes 2-3 mm. long. Leaves short petiolate, elliptic, acuminate, pilose—pubescent or sparsely hirsute on both surfaces, 12-15 cm. long and 4—5.5 cm. broad when mature, secondary nerves 11-13 pairs, conspicuous below, petiole slender, 1-2 cm. long; inflorescence lateral, long pedunculate subumbell-— iform cyme covered with yellowish or golden multicellular pubescence, the peduncle about 6 cm. long, the cyme about 4 cm. long, the bracts subtending each division of the inflorescence linear and acute, 3 to 10 mm. long; flowers in each cymule about 4-5, short pedicellate, subtended by bracts longer than the calyx; hypanthium and calyx about 4 mm. long, densely short pilose, calyx lobes narrowly lanceolate, acute, 1.5—2 mm. long; corolla white, tubular, widest above the middle, pubescent outside especially above, 13-15 mm. long, the lobes short, oblong—lanceo— late, about 2 mm. long; style as long as the corolla, apex shortly bilobate; stamens inserted in the throat of the corolla, included, anthers about 3 mm. long; fruits narrowly ovoid, each carpel prominently 3=-ribbed dorsally, sparsely to densely pubescent, 5-6 mm. long. 1974 Williams, Tropical American plants 229 Guatemala: shrub 5-7 feet tall; leaves membranaceous, dull green above, gray—green beneath with prominent nerves; peduncles spreading or slightly drooping, brownish green or suffused with dull brick; pedicel mustard-yellow—tawny or golden tawny as is the calyx and corolla tube; corolla lobes white; ovary dull green; hills north of Finca Piamonte, between Finca Piamonte and summit of Volcan Santa Luisa, Dept. El Progreso, alt. 2,/00-3,333 me, Feb. 5, 1942, Steyermark 43518 (type, F). Related to P. purpusii Standl. from which it may be dis-— tinguished easily by the narrow bracts, instead of broad ones, subtending the segments of the inflorescence, the fruits narrowly ovoid, not subglobose. It is a species of the eastern highlands while P. purpusii is known only from the western high- lands of Guatemala and adjacent Chiapas. The specific name recalls the "golden head—covering" of the plant. PSYCHOTRIA IZABALENSIS L. Wms. sp. nov. — Subg. Hetero— psychotria. Arbusculae aut arbores usque ad 4 m. altae glabrae vel sparse pubescentes.

Related to Psychotria brachiata Sw. and to the complex around P. costaricensis Polak. From the first of these it is easily distinguished by the stipules and details of the inflo- rescence and flowers, by the larger long acuminate leaves. PSYCHOTRIA OREODOXA L. Wms. spe nove — Subgenus Hetero— psychotria. Arbusculae usque ad 5 m. altae ramosae glabrae aut leviter puberulae.

Baja Verapaz, alt. 1,600 m, January 2, 1973, Williams, Molina & Williams 1192), (F, type; BAP, US, NY). A montane Cloud forest species somewhat related to P. pubescens Swe, a species of the low wet tropical forests. It is easily distinguished by the narrower densely pubescent leaves and details of flowers and inflorescences. SPERMACOCEAB. — This tribe is perhaps as easily distin-— guished as any tribe in the Rubiaceae. There are in Guatemala, and in Central America, eight genera belonging to the tribe. All of these, except Ernodea, have species that superficially are much like those in others of the generae Characters to separate these genera mostly are found in the fruits and if fruiting material is not available, or not looked at, it is easy to put a plant into an incorrect genus. The facility with Which capable botanists, — Standley, Dwyer, Molina R. and Gémez Pompa for example, — who are familiar with the tribe and haveplaced a species into two or 232 Peele Yona OF TGR ORG eer Vol. 28; naag three different genera indicates that perhaps there is something wrong in the delimitation of the genera. The distinction of Crusea from Diodia is not good; that of Spermacoce and Hemi- diodia is not sharp; the large genus Borreria has look-alikes in almost all of the other genera and in Borreria are to be found '"misplaced" specimens of all of them. The tribe needs a friend for it is not feasible for a floristic worker to give it the time that it needs. NEW. PERUVIAN GESNERIACEAE Laurence E. Skog Department of Botany, Smithsonian Institution Washington, D. C. 20560 The pongo zone of the Rio Marafién in Peru is exceedingly rich in endemic species. Each expedition to that remote region of northwestern Amazonian Peru has garnered many species new to science, particularly the expeditions by Tessmann in 1924 and by Mexia in 1931-1932. Both of these collectors gathered plants from the downstream end of the pongo region near Pongo de Manseriche (see Wurdack, 1964). In 1962 John Wurdack visited the pongo region from Montenegro near the upper limit of the pongo zone downstream to Borja near Pongo de Manseriche, as well as adjacent areas. From the more than 700 field collections two new species of Besleria have been described (Morton, 1968) and also, a new species of Nautilocalyx now known in the horticultural trade from seeds collected by Wurdack (Skog, 1974). Presented here are three additional new species of Gesneri- aceae collected by Wurdack, including another new species of Nautilocalyx, and new species of Monopyle and Napeanthus. Additional collections of Gesneriaceae by Wurdack are yet to be studied and will probably yield additional new taxa. MONOPYLE FLAVA L. Skog, sp. nov.

Tessmann 4170 (NY!, US 2223618!), mouth of Rio Santiago, on high land. Three Peruvian species of Monopyle were treated by Morton in his revision of the South American species in 1945. All other known species of Monopyle have corolla tubes which are white to purple with a completely purple limb or with purple spots on the limb, or grading into a completely blue-purple corolla. Monopyle flava differs from the other species in having a yellow corolla, and with maroon maculae congested at the base of the corolla tube. Evidently the most closely related species is Monopyle subsessilis Benth., typified by a Spruce collection from near Tarapoto. Monopyle subsessilis differs from the species described here by-a suite of characters: the leaves are nearly always anisophyllous; inflorescences are condensed with secondary peduncles scarcely 1 cm long and not diverging; lack of an oblique floral tube; calyx lobes lanceolate, 6-9 mm long; and the corolla limb 2.0-3.3 cm broad. 236 Pei TOrk OG? ik Vol. 28, nos 3 GUnter Tessmann also collected Monopyle flava in the same area in 1924, but the specimens at NY and US remained unidentified until the present study. The lack of nectar-producing glands or disk and the presence of the maroon maculae at the base of the corolla suggest that Monopyle flava may be visited and pollinated by male euglossine bees in somewhat the same manner as Gloxinia perennis (Vogel, 1966).

"On moist cliff, occasional. Corolla pale blue-purple." The genus Napeanthus Gardn. was revised in 1958 by Leeuwenberg who treated 12 species from Central and South America. Napeanthus loretensis differs from all other known species of Napeanthus by possessing the combination of a stemless habit, leaves narrowly oblanceolate and sparsely pilose to glabrous above, inflorescences shorter than the leaves and bearing few flowers, each flower having a calyx of 5 separate, 3-nerved sepals about 3 mm long, and a pale blue-purple corolla nearly twice as long as the calyx. This species is apparently the first Napeanthus described from 1974 Skog, New Peruvian Gesneriaceae 237 Figure 2. Napeanthus loretensis L. Skog, sp. nov.

Other species of Nautilocalyx have corollas well over 1 cm long; N. picturatus also collected by Wurdack from the valley of Rio Marafién has corollas up to 4.5 cm long. The leaves of the latter species differ markedly from Nautilocalyx minutiflorus in the light green bands along the veins on the upper surface and the lower surface suffused with reddish-purple with pale green bands.

Gunawardena (1968) gives the derivation of the generic name, Verbena, as "Latin, twigs of laurel, olive, myrtle, cypress, etc., used in Roman sacrifices and other religious acts; a corruption of the Celtic fervain which led to English vervain for V. officina- lis." Williams (1949) describes the genus as consisting of "creeping plants, lvs. soft and finely divided, fls. small and rosy violet", but this description applies to only a very few spe- cies in the genus. Such generic "descriptions", based on only one or a few species, or on the species found in a small geographic area, are most misleading to the non-specialist who may rely on them as descriptive of the entire genus.

Irwin & Wills (1961) give the distribution of this species as "South Dakota to Alabama, west to Arizona and northern Mexico" and say of it that "The Prairie Verbena is one of the most abundant wildflowers in Texas, from the points of view of both distribution and period of flowering. While commonest on limestone soils, it is found throughout most of the state, the only exceptions being the pine forests of the East and the most desertous western re- gions. It flowers most freely in the spring, but in moist situa- tions in the southern part of the state the flowers keep coming nearly throughout the year. The low matted habit suits the plant well for edge-work in the garden. Restricted to the Trans—Pecos is a plant of similar habit, Wright's Verbena, V. wrightii Gray, an annual with leafy erect or spreading stems and rosy or light purple flowers in spring." Burlage (1973) records the common names "Dakota Verbena", "Sweet—William", "Small Flowered Verbena", "Common Verbena", "Wild Verbena", and "Plains Verbena" for this plant and says of it that "The flowers bloom from spring until severe freeze. They are clusters of flowers on the top of the stalk, which has many prostrate branches. The leaves are thick, rough, divided into narrow segments. Children suck the nectar from the corollas tube. The Highway Department uses it for roadside planting." VERBENA BONARIENSIS L. Additional bibliography: Alston in Trimen, Handb. Fl. Ceylon 6: 231—232. 1931; Abeywickrama, Ceylon Journ. Ses.

Furusato (19,0) reports that seeds of this plant required about 18 days to germinate under normal conditions; with 0.02 percent colchicine they also required 18 days; with 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 per- cent 20 days; and with 0.4 and 0.8 did not germinate at all. The species' normal chromosome number he reports as 10, diploid 20, and tetraploid 0; no octoploid was produced. The Angely (1971) reference cited in the bibliography above was previously cited by me as 1970, the title-page date, but this work was not actually published until 1971. Paxton (18,0) asserts that V. incisa was introduced into cul- tivation in England in 1835 and his V. arraniana in 1837. Dupuis (1860) describes the color of the flowers as "rose pourpre", which leads one to suspect that his plant was not V. incisa. The late Dr. T. A. Sprague, in a letter to Dr. L. H. Bailey dated 9/6/2h, says "Verbena incisa Hook. Bot. Mag. t. 3628 (1838). 26 P Hier LO) Gok Vol. 28, no. 3 Only a fragment (two nodes, without flowers) of the actual type- specimen was preserved, and this would not make a satisfactory photograph. There is, however, a fine contemporary specimen of a plant cultivated as V. incisa in the Gardens of the Horticultural Society. This agrees with the Bot. Mag. plate and may be accep— ted as a ‘working type'. It is being photographed. The sheet containg the wild specimens cited by Hooker is also being photo- graphed." These photographs have been examined by me and are cited below; all three specimens are preserved in the herbarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew. The corollas on Quarin 655, cited below, are said to have been "red" when fresh and the col- lector comments that it is a "maleza en cultivos de algodén" {weed in cotton-fields].

Paxton (1840) asserts that it was introduced into cultivation in England in 1818. The Verbena erinaides Willd., listed in the synonymy a- bove, was previously erroneously listed by me as a synonym of var. contracta (Lindl.) Moldenke. The Herb.

A memorandum to Dr. L. H. Bailey from the Paris herbarium curator states that this IS probab- 28 PR xg Oper OrGr Ls Vol. 28, no. 3 ly the type specimen of V. erinoides. However, that binomial is based on Erinus laciniatus of Linnaeus and THAT is based on a Feuillée non-existent specimen, so the illustration given by Feu- illée must be regarded as the "standard" type according to the late expert on the International Rules, Dr. Sprague of Kew.

It looks almost like a species of scentless Thyme, and grows into a very dense patch which has but little disposition to extend itself." The original description of var. sabini (1836) is "It differs from the normal variety of erinoides only by its dwarfer, denser, and more glab- rous habit, and rich purple flowers". It seems most likely to me now that these two names apply to the same taxon, for which the earlier varietal name must be adopted. Paxton (180) avers that it was introduced into cultivation in England in 183); Willdenow (1809) lists it as cultivated at the Berlin Botanical Garden in 1809.

In South Africa it has been found in mountainous areas with many springs and streams, some wooded and some grassy areas, basically dolomites and Limestone covered with deep humus in many places. They describe it as 0.8--l m. tall, the stems quadrangular and ribbed, the uppermost parts and calyx-tips purple, and the leaves medium-green. Scora refers to the species as abundant on exposed lava on Quaternary continental deposits in Veracruz, Mexico; Bris- tol says that it is common in waste places in Putumayo, Colombia; and Rufz-Teran & Lépez-Figueiras found it "en paties y jardines" in Mérida, Venezuela.

These authors describe the species as having the spikes short and dense, the peduncles naked for some distance below the flowers or bearing very reduced leaves, the corolla-limb 2--5 m. in diameter, the tube about ) mm. long, the calyx about 3 mm. long. They say that the plant is "Hispid with simple hairs becoming almost glabrous in the older parts", the leaves "elliptic to lanceolate in outline, dentate or lobed." Oertel (1939) lists this species as a honey plant and a pollen- yielding plant in Louisiana. Paxton (180) states that it was in- troduced into cultivation in England in 1832.

Moir encountered this species "in steppe openings dominated by Festuca arizonica in Pseudotsuga menziesii forest zone" in New Mexico, while Lehto and his associates found it in a "mountain meadow in ponderosa pine zone". My wife, son, and myself have seen it abundant along roadsides and in clearings in ponderosa pine forests, often producing a spectacularly beautiful display. The Corrells (1972) give its distribution as "On flats at high elev., in wet mt. meadows and valleys, w. Tex. (Culberson Co.), N. M. (widespread in mts.) and Ariz.

This unnamed hybrid was apparently produced artificially by Solbrig and his associates in Massachusetts. Until authentic herbarium voucher specimens of the parental species can be exam- ined it seems pointless to propose a binomial designation for it. The name, V. pulchella, is interpreted differently by South Amer— ican workers and I am not at all sure that this species is really involved in this cross. In any case, such a hybrid might occur in nature where the ranges of the two parental species overlap and may be represented now in herbaria as some of the perplexing intermediate specimens about whose identity there has been such difference of opinion. Vouchers of the artificially produced hy- brids most certainly should be made available for study. VERBENA MENDOCINA R. A. Phil.

It is of interest to note the disagreement of authors about the longevity of this plant. Raeuschel (1797) and Datta & Majumdar (1966), for instance, categorically classify it as an annual. Pat- 262 P Hee LO GTA Vol. 28, no. 3 zat & Rechinger (1967), on the other hand, describe it definitely as a perennial. Probably it varies depending on local climate and other ecologic conditions. Abedin 2735: is actually described on its label as a "shrub". The corollas are described as "violet" in color by LeGrand (1887), "lavender-rose" on Koelz 1326, "bright-lavender" on Fos- berg 37559, "lavender" on Fosberg 372k) 72h) & 38169, "rose-purple" on Fosberg rg 3837h, "purple" on Faroogi & Qa & Qaiser 2769, 2797, & 3421, Rosberg 38613, and Qureshi 263, "blue" on Brydolf s.n. [24/5/1972], Sex Sie SS ee, on ea 2735 & 7522, "bluish-white" on a Galeer & & aiaicer 167h, "pink" on Abedin 7740 and Qaiser 259, "light pinkish-purple" on Qaiser & Ghafoor 1,892, and | "pinkish-white" on Qaiser & Ghafoor 1851. Huang (1972) describes the pollen of V. officinalis as having "Grains 3 (--l,)-colporate; suboblate to oblate-spheroidal; 26-33 x 29--38 Ps amb subangular; colpi 23--2) x 3 UW; exine 2U thick; tectum psilate; sexine finely reticulate, with OL-pattern; nexine as thick as sexine." This description is based on material taken from Sasaki s.n. [Taipei, July 1921] and Huang 2126. He provides illustrations. Brenan (1961) informs us that the period when a- bundant pollen is shed is from 7--11:30 a.m.; small quantities of pollen are still present until 2 p.m. Ltve (1971) reports the chromosome count as: 2n = 1), based on Murin & Sheikh s.n. from a canal bank at Kadhimiya, Iraq. i The supposed hybrid of V. officinalis with Veronica maritima L., described and illustrated by Haartman in 1751 and later tenta- . tively named xVeronicena haartmani by me, is probably nothing more than a specimen of what Linnaeus named Veronica spuria in 1753, byt a search ought to be instituted for any specimens so named a- mong Linnean material in Sweden or England. Parsa (1949) cites Darlington 1726, Lindsay 1026, Stapf s.n., and numerous of his own collections fram Iraq. Iraq. Dellirs & Gillet (1956) record the species from the Niger Republic; Rainha found it growing in wet ground in Portugal. Beadle and his associates (1972) describe it as "widespread" in the Sydney, Australia, region, the corollas there "pink to lilac" in color. Urbschat (1972) records it from Schleswig-Holstein, but comments that it has not been found there anymore in recent years. Similarly, in Stafforshire, England, Edees (1972) reports that it is found in "Waste places about villages.....rare now, formerly 'unfrequent'", Kunkel (1972) found it on Lanzarote island in the Canaries. Polu- nin (1971) gives its general distribution as "Schutt, Wegr&nder, Ufer. Juni-Oktober. Ganz Europa (ausser IS. [Iceland]): einge- btrgert IRL. N. SF [Ireland, Norway, Finland]" — interestingly he here seems to regard it as native in Sweden, while in his 1969 work he regards it as introduced there (as in Norway) . Also, he here says "all of Europe", while in 1969 he said "Much of Europe". Lousley (1971) records it from Saint Mary's and Tresco islands 1974 hioldenke, Notes on Verbena 263 in the Scilly Islands group and cites Millett 1852, commenting that it is "rare on roadsides and waste places" there. Ferrarini (1971) found it on Palmaria Island in cultivated land and in areas of abandoned cultivation. Jacobsen (1973) says that in Rhodesia it is occasional "In grassland and scrub, escape from earlier cultivation?" The Col- lector undetermined. s.n. specimen, cited below as having been cul- tivated in India, is said to have been grown there from seed se- cured in Nepal. *Kanjilal and his associates (1939) record it from an altitude of 5000 feet in the Khasa Hills of Assam, where, they say, it flowers in the rainy season and fruits in the cold season, In an apparent reference to xV., hybrida Voss, they comment that "Many Verbenas are beautiful garden plants". Fenaroli (1973) describes its habitat as "Geoel. eurasico. Gramineti e incolti" and cites collections by Béguinot (1902), Fenaroli (1959), Gussone (1823), and Rabenhorst (1847). From India, Saxena (1970) reports it "Rare in open places" in Madhya Pradesh, citing Indorkar 1116, while Singh (1969) found it to be "Frequent, along the sides of sugarcane and paddy fields" and "Near water", citing Bot. Surv. India 1960, 25510, eins, 31337, & 31639. Datta & Majumdar (1966) found it in waste te places in Bengal, flowering from March to June. Misra (1969) found it growing "In waste places, sides of walls". In Bihar the Banerjees (1969) encountered it in open land, including roadsides and waste places. Deb and his associates (1968 ) describe it as an "Erect herb with violet flowers, occurring in open situations, citing Deb 329 and Sengupta 1271, 1275, & 1278. a ~~ Bicknell (1896) reports rts it as very abundant in grassy places in western Liguria, flowering there throughout the summer. Koelz found it on the borders of fields in Afghanistan. Vigo (1968) says that it grows in the "Loto-juncetum acutiflori" association, while Bolés & Masclans (1955) found it to be part of the "Paspal o-Agros— tidion" association in Spain. Grieve (1967) gives its general dis- tribution as "Europe, Barbary, China, Cochin-China, Japan". Raeus- chel (1797) accredits the synonymous on spuria to "Canada", Fosberg found V. officinalis "common along paths on broken cul- tivated land with rough limestone outcrops, rock piles, and stone walls" on Taketomi island in the Ryukyus. On other islands of the same archipelago he found it to be common on roadsides in cultiva- ted land, at the edges of cultivated fields near the edge of a nar- row mangrove belt, occasional on weedy roadsides and waste places, and in cultivated ground in general. Perring, Sell, & Walters (196) describe it as occasional throughout the county of Cambridge- shire, England, on roadsides and in grassy and waste places; also in Wales, Ireland, and Fife in Scotland. They assert that it was first reported from Cambridgeshire by Ray in 1660, Evans (1939) asserts that in Cambridgeshire it occurs "on dry roadsides and waste ground on all soils, even in peat districts, newer common". Drar (1970) cites his nos. 1667, 2032, & 239) from the Sudan, while Khattab & El-Hadidi (1971) ¢c ete th aie no. no. 334 from Yemen and 26h P HY eteC L0G Ak Vol. 285 noses nos. 45 & 1515 from Hedjaz, Arabia. The Sudan specimens were collected along roadsides and in a wadi, while the Dedjaz ones came from sandy canal banks. Tammaro (1971) records the plant from Palmaria Island in the Gulf of Spezia islands of Italy. Lépez (1949) cites his nos. 1702 & 1703 from eastern Guinea, where he found the species to be very common "Vive en los taludes, caminos, escombros; planta ruderal. Sube a los 1.500 m.s.m." He gives its overall distribution as "Europa, africa del Norte, Asia Cen- tral y Septentrional y adem4s difundida por casi toda la super- ficie terrestre; su limite septentrional en Europa pasa por las Islas Britdnicas (Northumberiand), Dinamarca, Schonen, Kowno; en Africa tiene su lfmite meridional en las Islas de Cabo Verde y Abisinia; adem4s de Africa del Sur, en la India, Australia, Nueva Zelanda, Polinesia, Indias Occidentales, América del Norte’ y del Suet and Steudner 130), from Eritrea, SuartineDLen SMe, Rohlfs oa Steker s.n., and and Schimper 7& 28h from Ethiopia, Scott-Slliot 7800 from Kenya, Révoil s.n. from Somalia, Cienkowsky s.n. from Sudan, and two Gtirke records from Nesee He gives s the spe- cies! * distribution as "Spread through the north temperate zone in the Old World, and extending to South Africa; introduced into Ameri- ca." Stewart (1972) says that in Pakistan it is "A common weed throughout our range, sometimes ascending to c. 8000'. Baluch., N. Wazir., NWFP, Pb., Haz., Lower Swat, Kashmir, etc." Takematsu and his associates (1973) tell us that in Japan the plant is known as "kumatuzura" and that it is a "weed" in the U. S. 5S. R. Paxton (180) calls both V. officinalis and V. spuria "worth- less" from the horticultural s standpoint. Additional common names (in addition to the very numerous ones previously recorded by me) are "ayauhxochitl", "berberina", "chichiantic", "erba croce", "herba verbena", "kumatsuzura", "laenge-jernurt", "ma pien ts'ao", "seona-se-seholo", "verbena oficinal", "vervaine officinale", "wild verbena", and "yaena". The "Procumbent Vervain” of Torrey (1843) probably refers to V. officinalis var. prostrata Gren. & Godr. In regard to the chemical and pharmaceutical properties of V. officinalis much has recently been published. Trease & Evans _ (1972) say "Verbena officinalis, the Herba Verbenae of many phar- macopoeias. This plant contains a hormone-like substance, verben- alin, with strong parasympathetic action." Miller (1973) notes "verbenalin (XVIII), the glucoside of verbenalol, occurs in all parts of Verbena officinalis L.; the inflorescences are especially rich in the glucoside". Bischoff (1831) notes that "Die Blatter (Herba Verbenae) sind geruchlos, von einem schwachen, herben und bitterlichen Geschmackem sie waren frtther als ein Art Universal- mittel gegen eine Menge von Krankheiten im Ruse und man schrien ihnen wunderbare Kru#fte zu. Jetzt sind sie htchstens noch zuweilen als ausserliches, erweichendes Volksmittel im Gebrauche." [to be continued] NEW SPECIES OF PARMELIA (LICHENS) FROM TROPICAL AMERICA 1. Mason E. Hale, dr. Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560 Parmelia boquetensis Hale, sp. nov. Thallus corticola, adnatus ad ramos, 8-12 cm latus, cinereo- albidus, lobis subirregularibus, margine lobulascentibus, 3-4 mm latis, isidiis sorediisque destitutis; cortex superior 13-16u crassus, stratum gonidiale 16-18u crassum, medulla alba, 100py crassa, cortex inferior 14 crassus; subtus niger, sparse vel modice rhizinosus, rhizinis sparse dichotome ramosis. Apothecia numerosa, adnata, 2-3 mm diametro, disco imperferato, hymenio 45-50u alto, sporis 8, simplicibus, 6 X 12u (Fig. 1). Chemistry: Atranorin and salazinic acid. Holotype: Panama. Scrub trees in dry pasture near Boquete, Chiriquf, elev. about 1500 m, M.E. Hale 38878, 1 April 1973 (US). Additional specimens examined. Panama. 3 km south of Volcan, Chiriqui, Hale 38811, 38831, 38902 (US); Boquete, Chiriqui, Hale 38848 (US). This species at first glance resembles P. sublaevigata (Ny1.) Nyl., which contains norstictic acid in addition to salazinic acid and has crowded shorter lobes and often a dull pruinose surface. This and all following species belong to subgenus Parmelia section Hypotrachyna. Parmelia contradicta Hale, sp. nov. Thallus saxicola, laxe adnatus, coriaceus, cinereo-albus, 6-8 cm latus, lobis linearibus, 1-2 mm latis, dichotome ramosis, isidiis sorediisque destitutis; superne planus, nitidus; cortex superior 18-20u crassus, stratum gonidiale 22-28 crassum, medulla alba, 130-150u crassa, cortex inferior 14-18u crassus; subtus niger, Sparse rhizinosus, rhizinis sparse dichotome ramosis. Apothecia numerosa, adnata, 2-4 diametro, disco imperforato, hymenio 40-45y 265 266 Pon LiOrr) 0G A Vol. 28, nos 3 alto, sporis 8, simplicibus, 4 X 6 (Fig. 2). Chemistry: Atranorin and protocetraric acid. Holotype: Brazil. Serra dos Orgdos National Park, Terezopolis, Rio de Janeiro, W. Watson 521, 5 September 1950 (BM; US, isotype). Additional specimen examined. Brazil. Lajes, Morro do Pinheiro Seco, Santa Catarina, Reitz & Klein 15719a (US). This species is closely related to P. brasiliana Nyl., another much more common saxicolous species in southeastern Brazil. It differs chiefly in having atranorin instead of lichexanthone in the cortex. Parmelia eitenii Hale, sp. nov. Thallus saxicola, laxe adnatus, rumpens, ca. 6 cm latus, cinereo-albidus, lobis linearibus, elongatis, 2-3 mm latis, dichotome ramosis, isidiis sorediisque destitutis; cortex superior 18-22u crassus, Stratum gonidiale 20-24u crassum, medulla alba, 80-100u crassa, cortex inferior 14-l6u crassus; subtus nigricans, sparse vel modice rhizinosus, rhizinis longis, dichotome ramosis. Apothecia adnata, 3-4 mm diametro, disco imperforato, hymenio 45-50Qu alto, sporis 8; simplicibus, 5 X 7-8u (Fig. 3). Chemistry: Atranorin, lichexanthone, and anziaic acid. Holotype: Brazil. Serra dos Orgaos National Park, Rio de Janeiro, G. & L. Eiten 7125, 22 April 1966 (US). This species is also part of the P. brasiliana complex so richly developed in Brazil. It differs principally in the unusual chemical constituents, anziaic acid instead of protocetraric. P. eitenii also seems to be more fragile than P. brasiliana. Parmelia osorioi Hale, sp. nov. Thallus saxicola, fragilis, ca. 8 cm diametro, cinereo- vel pallide castaneo-albidus, lobis sublinearibus, 1.5-2 mm latis, crasse isidiatis, isidiis simplicibus vel ramosis, fere pustulatis; cortex superior 14-l6u crassus, stratum gonidiale 12-14u crassum, medulla alba, 65-75u crassa, cortex inferior 16-18u crassus; subtus niger, modice rhizinosus, rhizinis dichotome ramosis. Apothecia ignota (Fig. 4). Chemistry: Atranorin and gyrophoric acid. Holotype: Uruguay. On stones in forest, Abra de Cotto, Lavalleja, H.S. Osorio 6507, 12 October 1969 (MVM; isotype in US). 197) Hale, New species of Parmelia 267 Additional specimen examined. Uruguay. Santa Teresa, Rocha, Hosseus 48 (H). ' P. osorioi has very unusual isidia, simple to nearly coralloid and very large and more or less breaking down apically. It is known only from Uruguay and has no close relatives. Parmelia protoboliviana Hale, sp. nov. Thallus corticola, adnatus, fragilis, ca. 8 cm diametro, pallide cinereo-flavicans, lobis sublinearibus, 4-5 mm latis, isidiis sorediisque destitutis; superne planus, nitidus; cortex superior 14-l6u crassus, stratum gonidiale 16-20u crassum, medulla alba, 85-100u crassa, cortex inferior 14u crassus; subtus niger, dense rhizinosus, rhizinis dichotome ramosis. Apothecia male evoluta, adnata, 1 mm diametro, sporis non evolutis (Fig. 5). Chemistry: Usnic acid, barbatic acid, obtusatic acid, norob- tusatic acid, and 4-0-demethylbarbatic acid. Holotype: Costa Rica, Volcan Irazu, Cartago, D. Flenniken 1874 (US). Additional specimen examined. Costa Rica, Same locality as the holotype, Flenniken 2358, 10 July 1969 (US). All species previously known that contain the barbatic acid complex (cf. C. F. Culberson and M. E. Hale, Brittonia 25:162-173. 1973) have colorless atronorin in the cortex. This species produces usnic acid, giving the plants a distinct yellow-green color. Other- wise it is closely related to the broad lobed corticolous population of P. physcioides Nyl. (=P. boliviana Nyl.). Parmelia singularis Hale, sp. nov. Thallus corticola, subcoriaceus, ca. 8 cm diametro, cinereo-albus, lobis subirregularibus vel sublinearibus, 3-5 mm latis, margine lobulatis, lobulis usque ad 1 mm longis, angustis; superne planus, nitidus, isidiis sorediisque destitutus; cortex superior 18u crassus, stratum gonidiale 12-15u crassum, medulla alba, 40-45u crassa, cortex inferior 18u crassus; subtus niger, dense rhizinosus, rhizinis dense dichotome ramosis. Apothecia numerosa, adnata, ad 5 mm diametro, disco imperferato, hymenio 45-50u alto, sporis 8, simplicibus, 6 X 10-12u (Fig. 6). Chemistry: Atranorin and an unidentified fatty acid. Holotype: Peru. Cerros Calla Calla, 18 km above Leimebamba, Chachapoyas, Amazonas, elev. 3100 m, P.C. Hutchinson and J.K. Wright 5704, 16 June 1964 (US; isotype in UC). 268 PURE Y*?T0 "LO Geka Vol. 28, nos 3 The thallus is rather stiff and coriaceous for so small a species. It is probably not related to the common P. costaricensis Nyl. which also contains fatty acids but is isidiate. Parmelia steyermarkii Hale, sp. nov. Thallus corticola, arcte adnatus supra muscos, fragilis, cinereo-albus, 6-8 cm latus, lobis angustis, sublinearibus, 1-1.5 mm latis, isidiatis, isidiis simplicibus, procumbentibus et pro parte dorsiventrale complanatis, ciliatis; cortex superior 11-1]2u crassus, stratum gonidiale 14-1l6u crassum, medulla alba, 55-65y crassa, cortex inferior 12-14u crassus; subtus niger, modice rhizinosus, rhizinis dichotome ramosis. Apothecia ignota (Fig. 7). Chemistry: Atranorin, barbatic acid, obtusatic acid, norobtusatic acid (trace), and 4-0-demethylbarbatic acid (trace). Holotype: Venezuela. Sierra Parima, 45 km NE las Cabeceras aan Orinoco, Amazonas, J. Steyermark 106123, 18-23 May 1972 US).

All the Beetle collections mentioned hereafter are in the Range Management Herbarium at the University of Wyoming. ARISTIDA ADSCENSIONIS L. In 1842, Trinius and Ruprecht used the name Aristida dispersa Trin. & Rupr. to combine all the New World material of A. adscensionis and to distinguish this material from all the Old World material which was treated as A. vulgaris Trin. & Rupr. They confined A. adscensionis to its type locality on the Island of Ascension. In the Chase "Index to Grass species A. dispersa" is annotated "a group name including 5 varieties .......... Henrard takes humilis as type of the group." A. vulgaris is a similar "group name” but no mention of this is made in the Chase Index. Although all 5 of the varieties listed under A. dispersa in Trin. & Rupr. are given varietal status in the Chase Index no mention is made of the 15 names given varietal status under A. vulgaris. Henrard gives A. canariensis Willd. as the type for A. vulgaris and both names, A. vulgaris and A. canariensis, become synonyms of A. adscensionis. Many collections of the adscensionis complex from North America, South America, the Old World and the type locality show the lateral awns to be not less than 10 mm. long, and the central awn usually not more that 15 mm. long, and to agree additionally in the upright habit, narrow and elongate inflorescence, and the generally smooth lemma except for the scabrosity on the keel. These plants represent A. adscensionis var. adscensionis as now recognized by Henrard (Monograph of the genus Aristida. Med. Van's Rijks Herb. Leiden 54A Vol. Il. pgs. 331-335. 1932) and other authorities. Apparently A. adscensionis is native throughout its range since there is nearly equal development of geographic varieties in both the New World and the Old World. From the comparisons below, it is easy to imagine that something similar to the widespread var. adscensionis achieved the original dispersal of the species and that since, in three different geographical areas, there has been a segregation of c Published with approval of the director, Wyoming Agricultural Experiment Station as Journal Article No. 678. 313 314 PUY PLO pO aA Vol. 28, no. 4 varieties which tend to parallel each other because they are arising from similar gene pools.

ABORTIVA var. nov. A. adscensionis var. modesta Hack. similis sed setae lemmae abortivas. Type: Beetle M — 2403, Mexico, Baja California Sur, 5 miles south of El Coyote on Bajia Concepcion. In California and northern Mexico, well within the total range of var. modesta occurs a plant which is similar in all respects except for the striking reduction of the lateral awns of the lemma. This plant was noted by Johnston (Journ. Arnold Arboretum 24:of page 401. 1943) as follows: "three collections cited above have the lateral awns minute or nearly wanting, but otherwise they agree closely with the specimens associated with them.'' The three collections mentioned are Pringle 390, Johnston 8252 and Johnston 8415. Aside from the type collection, the following have been seen: California: 11 miles west of Needles, Numz and Harwood 3621. A collection of Wiggins, his number 9676, from the south end of the Coxcomb Mts., 8 miles n.e. of Desert Center is intermediate between var. abortiva and var. modesta. Mexico: Baja California Sur, Beetle M - 2662, near La Paz at Coromul is intermediate between var. abortiva and var. modesta. Mexico: Durango, 8 miles north of Lerdo, Beetle M-1323.

It occurs in North America from Missouri, Kansas, and Colorado, south to Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, throughout Mexico, where it is the most common variety, and in Guatemala, Venezuela and Argentina. Mexican collections include: Sonoro, Beetle M - 2344; Baja California Sur, Beetle M - 2407; Nuevo Leon, Beetle M - 425; Zacatecas, Beetle M - 1790; Sinaloa, Beetle M - 2672; Queretaro, Beetle M - 1703; Morelos, Beetle M - 1645; Oaxaca, Beetle M - 1515.

A collection, Beetle 596, Prov. of Mendoza, 8 kil. s. of Villavicencia on first slopes breaking out of the Mendoza Plain, dry rocky site, April 25, 1953, from Argentina, agrees exactly with North American desert habitat and material from California, Arizona and Mexico. Many early floras including Hitchcock's treatment of grasses for Jepson's Flora of California, accepted var. bromoides either as a species or as a variety and this practice should continue, but the name changed since Henrard has redefined the limits of var. bromoides based on examination of the type which is from Ecuador. The common variety in California and Arizona is var. modesta. It has apparently also been reported for Texas by Silveus in his "Texas Grasses" for he says (cf. page 333), "The author collected in the Hueco Mountains some plants with spikelets 5-7 mm. long, 1974 Beetle, Grasses from Mexico 317 central awn 4-8 mm. long, and the lateral 2-5 mm. long." It is very common in Baja California Sur, and rarer in continental Mexico, also occurring in central South America. Mexican collections include: Baja California Sur, Beetle M - 2587 and M-2496; Baja California Norte, Beetle M - 1876 and M - 1867; Nuevo Leon, Beetle M - 2891 and M - 390; S.L.P., Beetle M - 1764; Zacatecas, Beetle M - 1812; Mexico, Beetle M - 2922.

Aristida debilis Mez, Repert. Sp. Nov. Fedde 17:151. 1921. This variety is characterized by its open inflorescence, the panicle lax and loose, somewhat spreading. The central awn is usually markedly longer. This variety has been described many times from many places and occurs mostly on the east coast of Mexico but also on various islands of the Cerribean and in Venezuela. In Mexico the grass has been reported for Jalisco, Tamaulipas, Yucata (Beetle M - 999) and Campeche (Beetle M - 922). Although the name implies a dense panicle, Henrard says of the type "The plant is the somewhat open-panicled form of the common Aristida adscensionis, a form not uncommon in Mexico."

This plant is characterized by its striking habit of pro- ducing whorled vegetative branching well above the base of the plant as well as by its stiff, straight awns which are often rigidly divaricate. The lemmas and awns are sometimes very dark purple as the name implies. This variety is most common in Mexico, in Baja California Sur but has also been collected in Oaxaca (whence the type) and on the Yucatan Peninsula. Collections include Yucatan, Beetle M - 8523 Oaxaca, Beetle M - 3103 and M - 3227; Baja California Sur, Beetle M - 2609, M - 2390, and M - 2429. 313 P NPY roel 0) Gites Vol. 28, no.

This variety has the usual awn measurements between 10 mm. and 15 mm. in length but the inflorescence is 20 cm. long in a narrow but interrupted panicle. In Mexico, it cecurs along the eastern edee of the high plateau as follows: Coahuila, Almeida, Julian and Beetle no. 124; Nueve Leon, Beetle M - 1084, Tamaulipas, Beetle M - 1210 and Veracruz (type locality for Fournier's species).

Beetle but has much longer awns (always more than 15 mm. long, and frequently 20 im. long) and the sometimes very dark purple spikelets, and its geographically distinct range, apparently occurring along the western coast of Mexico both in Baja California Sur and on the mainland. Collections include Baja California Sur, s. of La Paz, Beetle M - 2567 and 5 miles e. of San Antonio, Beetle M - 2648 and Beetle M - 2642; Sonora, west of El Coyote, Beetle M - 2024; and Nagales, Beetle M - 21; Guerrero, near Acopulco, Beetle M - 276; Oaxaca, near Tehuantepec, Beetle M - 2476 and Beetle M - 1462.

The name, "Herb-Grace", previously recorded for Verbena officinalis, is applied also to Ruta craveo- lens. Hartwell (1971) records the following uses for V. officinalis: as a plaster in the treatment of parotid tumors; the juice in a cerate for parotid tunors and for tumors in general; in China in the treatment of tumors, first recommended in the Liing-i-pie-lu in 502 A.0.3 as a poultice for tumors in the neck; in Wales as an in- eredient of "The Grace of God" remedy for morbid granulations; according to 0. brunfels in the treatment of indurated veins; in Liexico for tumors; in China for tumors ana cancer; as a cataplasm according to Loureiro for tumors of the scrotum and spleen in In- dochina; trituratec for tumors of the abdominal viscera; in Sicily in the treatment of polypus; in Brazil as a poultice for tumors; and in Argentina as a decoction for tumors. he records it as a Chinese herb medicine in the treatment of malignant tumors. Watt & Breyer-B3randwijk (1962) give another lengthy discussion of its chemistry and medicinal uses: "used overseas as a popular medicine for fever, anaemia, dropsy, pleurisy and scrofula, as a bitter, aphrodisiac, antineuralgic and antirheumatic and for wounds....i1t has also been used for chronic eczema, chronic bron- chitis and menstrual disorders and as a diaphoretic.....i¥e have not heard of the plant being used as a household remedy in South- ern and Jastern Africa.

Rimpler £ Schafer (1973) have recently isolated a chertical substance which they call hastatocid from this species and V. hastata L. Grieve (1967) summarizes the historic aswacten ct the plant as Cliows: "The name Vervain is derived from the Celtic ferfaen, from er (to drive away) and faen (a stone), as the plant was much used for affections of the tladder, especially calculus. Another deri- vation is fiven by some authors from Herba veneris, because of the avhrodisiac properties attricuted to it by the Ancients. Priests used it for sacrifices, and hence the name Herba Sacra. The name vemena was the classical Noman name for 'altar-plants' in general, and for this species in particular. The cruids included it in their lustral water, and magicians and sorcerers employed it largely. It was used in various rites and incantations, anc by ambassadors in making leagues. Bruisec, it was worn arounc the neck as a charm against headaches, and also against snake anda other venomous bites a aL Lr al 1974 Moldenke, Notes on Verbena 359 as well as for general good luck. It was thought to be good for the sight. Its virtues in all these directions may be due to the legend of its discovery on the Mount of Calvary, where it staunch- ed the wounds of the crucified Saviour. Hence, it is crossed and blessed with a commemorative verse when it is gathered. It must be picked before flowering, and dried promptly..... "The plant appears to contain a peculiar tannin, but it has not yet been properly analysed [see the preceding paragraphs!]....1t is recormended in upwards of thirty complaints, being astringent, dia- phoretic, antisvasmodic, etc. It is said to be useful in inter- mittent fevers, ulcers, ophthalmia, pleurisy, etc., and to be a rood galactogogue. It is still used as a febrifuge in autumn fevers. As a poultice it is good in headache, ear-neuralgia, rheumatisn, etc. In this form it colors the skin a fine red, giving rise to the idea that it has the power of drawing the blood outside. A decoction of 2 oz. to 2 quart, taken in the course of one day, is said to be a good medicine in purgings, easing pain in the bowels. It is often applied externally for piles. It is used in homoeo- pathy. Fluid extract, 1/2 to 1 drachn." Grieve actually attrib- utes all these properties to both V. officinalis and/or V. hastata. Beals (1917) gives us more fascinating detail o! this plant's folk history. She begins by quoting E. B. Browning (in "Aurora Leigh") : ub You enchant me Sweet verbena! which being brushed against, Will hold you three hours after by the smell, In spite of long walks on the windy hills. "Verbena was an olc Latin name for the flower that was later known throughout Europe as vervain. Both names mean a green bough. As an holy herb, it was held in the highest veneration by both Greeks and xomans, and marvelous qualities were attributed to it, not the least of which was the power of reconciling the bitterest enemies. It bore a prominent part in the official life of both nations. When the Romans felt that they had been treated discourt- eously by any of their neighbors, it was their custom to select four heralds from the members of the fetiales, whose duty it was to maintain the forms of international relationship, act as cuardi- ans of the public faith, and demanc redress. These four selected one of their number to act as spokesman, who was sometimes the pater patratus or president of the college, but more generally he was merely a member and known as the verbenarius. Clothed in their priestly robes, wearing the insignia of their office, and preceded by the verbenarius, who in addition to his other vestments wore a white woolen band around his head, together with a wreath of the sacred verbena, gathered within the enclosure of the Capitoline Hill, and all bearing boughs of the same sacred vlant, they advan- ced to the place where their negotiations were to be conducted. If war was decided upon, the verbenarius and his colleagues, wearing wreaths of verbena, approached the confines of the hostile terri- tory. Throwing across the boundary a spear tipped with iron, and having a sprig of the holy herb bound upon its point, a solemn 360 PHY TO L0G TA Vol. 28, no. declaration of war was announced, and Jupiter was called upon to witness the justice of their cause. All treaties were approved by the college before they became effective and war was not de- clared until the demand for rearess had first been made. "Tt was with water, in which this plant had been steeped, that the festal table of Jupiter was cleansed just before the feasts, which were prepared in the capitol by the septenviri in his honor. If the water was also used to sprinkle the banquet-— ing couches before a feast, the merriment anc hilarity was said to be thereby greatly promoted. Fletcher, in the "Faithful Shepherdess', wrote: And those light vervain, too, thou must go after, Provoking easy souls to mirth and laughter. "Tt was likewise used to cleanse houses in the belief that it kept away evil spirits. It was known as Juno's tears. A few leaves were worn on the person as a protection from harm. Romulus anc Tatius, the Sabine, who rules with him for seven years, are reported to have ordered that branches of the plant should be sent to them as a New Year's offering to insure their good fortune during the ensuing year. It was a favorite bridal flower. Roman brides were considered fortunate who wore a wreath which they gathered themselves. This tradition is doubtless the origin of a custom which has, until recently, been in vorue in some parts of Germany, where a bride is presented with a hat made of the blos- soms, which she mst wear during the ceremony. "In Persia it was held in scarcely less veneration than among the Greeks and Romans. The priests of the temples of the sun al- ways wore branches of it in their hands when they approached the altar, and the gathering of the plants was attended with much solemnity. It must take place at a time when neither the sun nor the moon was visible. The roots were carefully cut below the surface and honey from the comb was poured into the place thus left vacant to appease the earth for robbing it of so precious a possession. "The magicians of the Hast also used it as a symbol of enchant- ment. They were responsible for the belief that if one smeared the body all over with the juice of the herb he would obtain what-— ever he might desire. He would also be enatled to cure any dis- ease and reconcile those who were at enmity. "Among the Druids of ancient Briton the plant was known by the name of vervain or holy herb. Almost the same ceremonies were ob- served in cutting it as were in vogue among the Persians, but with the restriction that the left hand only must be used. The leaves, stocks, and flowers were dried sep2rately, and when mixed with wine were considered a certain cure for serpents' bites. At the time of gathering of the mistletoe, a herald, clothed in white and bearing in his hands verbena branches, encircled by serpents, accompanied the druidic procession. ‘hen performing their daily task of feeding the never-dying fires in the temple, the priests spent half an hour in prayer, before the altar, holding in their hands branches of the sacred herb. One writer on antiquities 1974 Moldenke, Notes on Verbena 1 states that the verbena was as especiaily holy to the priestesses as the mistletoe was to the nriests. No one was allowed to touch it with the hand, and when it was gathered it sust be at the full moon. A string was looped over the plant and then fastened to the toe of a young maid, who pulled until it was uprooted. ‘Zhe oldest druidess then threw a cloth over it anc gathered it up. It was used in the sacred rites for offerings to the sods anc mecic- inally as a cooling remedy. "During the liddle Ages the plant still retained its po:ularity. It was prescribed as a remedy for thirty different ailments, and for this reason was known as simples [=simplers'] joy. in spite of the fact that it was used by witches for working their spells it was also used to combat the enchantments. Aubrey quotes the old English proverb: 'Vervain and dill hinder witches in their will’. Dill is a flowering plant used in medicine. On Christmas Eve great bonfires were built, and the young men and maidens cancedc a- round them, wearing wreaths anc garlands of vervain. Any young woman who gave to her lover a garland gathered and woven by her own hands insured his fidelity for at least all that year. (iven now the superstition of its efficacy as a love-philter has not entirely died out in some parts of England. A knot of vervain tied with white satin ribbon is still worn as a preventive of ague. french peasants gather the plant under certain phases of the moon, hoping with its magical assistance to charm those whose affection they desire. The Hungarian gipsies call it the lock- opening herb, saying that if a small incision is made in the palm of the hand, and a tiny piece of the leaf placed in the cut, the wound being allowed to heal over, one will be able to open all bolts and bars with a single touch. It is confidently asserted that therein lay the secret of the success of all the most famous brigands of old. "The plant is not without religious association. As late as the seventeenth century it was knowm in Brittany as the herb-of- the-cross. The Reverend John white, in 162), wrote of it: "Hallowed be thou, vervain, as thou growest in the ground, For on the Mount of Calvary thou first wert found.! "Ben JOnson referred to the sacredness of the plant when he wrote: 'Bring your garlands and with reverence place the vervain on the altar.!" She then follows with a description of xVertena hybrida Voss and its perioc of popularity in cultivation, but implies that this is still the same classical verbena about which she previous- ly wrote so well. This, of course, is not true. Then she returns again to the classical species, saying "It has never held a prom- inent place in literature. Virgil refers to it as a symbol of en- chantment. The earlier English writers made frequent allusions both to its classical associations and to the superstitions con- nected with it during their own time. Dr. Johnson says that Satan has no power over a maiden who wears vervain and St. Johns- wort about her. But elsewhere it appears that when it is gather- ed a cross must first be made over it and then a prayer said. 362 P Boy D0) LO iGVi2k Vol. 28, nos Thereupon it is said to have been ‘crossed and blessed’. "Another old book says that to prepare a magic staff there must be put into a hollow place in it seven leaves of vervain, which must have been gathered on the eve of St. John the Baptist, and a stone of divers colors, which must be founc in the nest of a bird called the lapwing. The hollow must be stopped up with boxwood. The staff, among other things, will preserve him who carries it fron robbers, wild animals, and mad dogs. It does not seem to have attracted modern writers » Ll Irwin * Wills (1961) tell us that V. officinalis is "a garden plant sometimes escaped in Texas, formerly of great repute as a remedy for eye diseases, its 'bright-eyed' corolla supposedly indicating its virtues in that direction." Aithouch I have to date examined 225,000 specimens of this group from 307 herbaria, I have not yet seen a specimen of it from Texas, either wild or cultivated, xVerbena hybrida Voss is the one with the bright "eye! Grant found it crowing on disturbed archeological mounds in Tran. Rigual Magallon (1972) reports it as a member of the so- called Brachypodion phoenicoides ecologic community. It should probably be noted here that the Angely (1971) ref- erence in the synonymy and bibliography of Verbena officinalis was previously cited by me -- as it has been by other writers -- as "1970". This is the title-page date, but the work was appar- ently not actually published until 1971. The illustration given by Woodward (1931 & 1969) as V. officinalis actually rep- resents V. supina L. instead. In the Fuchs (152) work the text relating to V. officinalis is on De 591; the plate on p. 592 represents Sisymbrium officinale but is qapeled "Yerbenaca recta sive mas", while the plate on p. 593 really represents V. officinalis but is labeled "Verbenaca supina sive foemina". This is a mis-application of both pre- linnean names -- the former should apply to V. officinalis and the latter to V. supina. a The Repton 6, distributed as V. officinalis, is actuaily V. brasiliensis Vell., while J.

It’ seams rather obvious, judging from the description which he gives and the common name which he proposes, that the "Verbena souria, Linn." of Torrey (183) is actually V. officinalis var. prostrata. He speaks of the stem as prostrate and divaricately branched and calls the plant "Procumbent Vervain". He says that he found it in "Sandy fields in the suburbs of New-York, and near Albany", flowerinz from August to November. The former locality is most probably on Long Island in what is now Queens County. oe citations: SiITZERLAND: Norrman s.n. [1.7.1960] (Gz). Sa VERBENA OFFICINALI-VHNOSA Paxt., Pock. Bot.

Kecent collectors describe the plant as a semipros-— trate, decumbent, or low mat-forming herb. Hatschbach & Koczicki found it "encostas graminosas de morro", The corollas are de- scribed as having been "red" on Krapovickas, Cristébal, Liroginski, & Eemnandes 22288 and Rosengurtt & Gallinal 569h, "bright-red" on Dress 729, and "vermillion" on Hatschbach & Koczicki 27219; on Be Be Me Bates 96 and J. V. Pancho 31 they are described as "corolla- lobes RHS [oyal Horticultural Society] Orient Red 319". Paxton (18)0) avers that the species was imtroduced into culti- vation in England in 1327. Graf (1963) describes the cultivar "Chiquita" as a "pretty, trailing plant with small foliage, and numerous clusters of flow- ers gayly striped lavender with white, reminding fone] of a pepper- mint stick" and the cultivar "Flame" as a "low carpet-forming prostrate perennial, in its original form, with crimson flowers, at homs in Peru, Uruguay, and So. Brazil; the first creeping and rooting, then ascending branches with Sees te, rougk leaves 1-=2 in. long, and showy clusters of salver-form flovers 1/2 inch wide; brilliant scarlet in this color-form, an: nearly everblooming, es- pecially in summer." Dupuis (18560) fives cultural @irections: "juin-octobre. Semer sur couche en mars et avril, ou bien aussi- t6t aprés la maturité des zraines. Boutures et marcottes, faites d'aofit en octobre, relevées en autonne , et mises en pots que l'on hiverne sous chfssis, pour mettre en pieine terre & la fin de mai. Pincer l'extrémité des rameaux." Solbrig (1963) informs us that V. stellarioides Cham. and V. peruviana will not hybridize where they grow together in the wild, but will cross with individuals brought in from populations out- side the particular area. He avers that the normal pollen fertil- ity in V. peruviana is 93 percent. It should be noted here that the Angely (1971) reference cited in the above bibliography was previously erroneously cited by me as "1970", the title-page date, but the work was not actually issued untii 1971. The photozraph of Stafford s.n. in the herbar- ium of the L. H. Bailey Hortorium, cited below, is of a sheet pre- served in the United States National Herbarium in Washington.

Recent collectors describe this plant as decumbent or procumbent and have found it on campos with Pteridium aquilinum, along highways through secondary woods, in "brejo", and in "orla mata". The corol- las are described as having been "violet" in color when fresh on Hatschbach 23670 & 26081 and Hatschbach, Smith, & Klein 23 3)8, "dark-lilac" on Hatschbach 30783 and Wat senbach & Guimarfes Hes 21,816, "purple" on Krapovickas, Cristébal, & Marufiak 22995m and "limb pu pur- ple (2,5 P 6/k), the center darker" on Lindeman & H: & Haas 3008. It is most probable that the pollen characters enumerated by by Huang (1972) for this species on the basis of material taken from Hsieh 22)35 apply to Ve hybrida Voss instead (I have not as yet been able to examine the Hsieh specimen). I would be very much surprised if the true V. phlogiflora occurs on Formosa. 197) Moldenke, Notes on Verbena 371 The Angely (1971) reference given in the bibliography above was previously erroneously cited by me as "1970", the title-page date; th work actually was not pubiishea until ao hy gt lees According to Paxton (181,0), Verbena phlogiflora was introduced into cuitivation in England in 1331. The photorraphs cited below from the L. H. Bailey Hortorium herbarium are all of specimens deposited in the herbarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens at kew with the exceotion of that of Kegnell 1.311 (which is deposited in the United States National Herbarium in Washinzton) and that of Sellow s.n. (which was in the herbarium of the Botanisches lLuseum in Berlin). The Nevin s.n. specimen in the Kew herbarium is the type of V. tweediana Hook. The Herb. Bentham s.n. [Hort. Soc, Lond. hort. 1935] specimen is probably the ac actual type of Vv. mel- indres latifolia Hort, Dr. L. UH. Bailey says of it "Caiyx - stri- gose-pubescent, svarinsly glandular; sts. simiiar; lvs. strisgose- hairy both sides" and "Rough to Bie fincer, with stiff hairs often bulbous-based, appressed on lvs The Herb. Gay sen. [Jardin du 2 Luxembourg 10 Nov. 182) collec- tion is probaoly the type of V. buistii Gay. Dr. Bailey says of it "Rough or scabrous to the feel from many stiff hairs, those on leaves appressed" -- examination with a handlens shows the lower leaf-surface and stems densely pubescent, but not with pubescence of the type seen in xV. hyorida Voss. The other Herb. Cay sone from the same source is inscribed "Verbena Tweediana Hook. PB. Me [Bot. Mag.] t. 351" and over the label is written in pencil "Ve philogiflora & vulgaris Schauer". Dr. Bailey notes of it "Calyx + = + strigose-putescent, sparingly glandular; sts. same. Lvs. stri- gose-hairy above and below" and "Plant scabrous or rough to the feel. Hairs stiff, some of them bulbous-based or from papillae". The second Herb. Bentham specimen from the same source as the one referred to above is probably the actual tyve of V. tweediana superba Fort., and Dr. Bailey says of it "Scabrous to rough to fingers, Sy stiff hairs, on lvs. appressed" and examination un- der a handlens shows the lower leaf-surface and stems distinctly pubescent or puberulent. The third Herb. Fentham s.n., also fron the same source, is probatly the tyze of V. arraniana ana Fort., and Dr. Bailey, in hie lonshand notes on the sheet, says of it Ncalyx and sts. strigose-pubescent, sparingly glandular. Lvs.strigose- hairy both sices" and "Rough or scabrous to the finger, with stiff hairs, appressed on the lf., often with bulbous bases" -- examin- ation, again, under a handlens shows a distinct pubescence. I have no doubt at all that all these authentic specimens re- ferred to in the above paragraphs represent the very same taxon.

Recent collectors have founc this plant frowing in carmos, "eanpo sujo", roadsides, and sunny sandy-clay sloping roadsices, in brackish marshes, sunny roadside ditches, sana of dry succulent bushveld, and sandy-loam soil in oak-pine associations, and along railroad tracks, ascendine to 200 meters altitude. layliss refers to it as "semi-prostrate", but Hanscam describes it as a "perennial herd, upricht"; Dress says that in cuitivation it is frown as an annual. Mrs. Pracelin found a specimen "over 2 f22t tall", while Balakrishnan makes the impossible assertion that it is a "1.2 m. tall shrub". It has a decided tendency to spread in and fron cultivation.

Lasser, 3arun, * Stey- ermark (197h) report it as cultivated in Venezuele. T. S.

Martin & Noel (1960) describe the flowers as "purple" end found the plant crowing in srasslands and on road sie is, flowering fran November to Narch. Park (1972) calls it the "Hardy Verbena Venosa", descrites it as crowine 1 foot tall, er ee ier" flowers, and sells a packet of 100 seeds for hs cents. Ss and his associa ates (1972) descrite the corollas as "purple", the "Plant usually 20--1:0 em high with a creeping rhizome ana erect or “ascending stens." They refer to it as the "Veined Verbena" and assert that in the sydney, Australia, region it is a "Weed of waste fround and railway enclo- sures. Introd. from S. Amer." The Gillett 39-60-76, citec below, was grown from seed received from Germany. The Angely (1971) work referred to in the bibliography above was 380 PHY T0 LOG IA Vol. 28, no. previously erroneously cited by me as "1970", the title-page date, but the volume concerned was not actually published until 1971. Ancely refers to the plant as a nomophyte, crowing in "varzea e postos tmicos" at 720--750 m. altitude in SMo Paulo, Brazil, flow- ering and fruiting there in December. Watt & Breyer—Brandivi jk (1962) call the plant "VYeined Vervein" and "morod" and comment that "The Sotho use a decoction of the root...for heartburn and colic.....rammel....states that it is irritant. The plant nas been suspected of causine sickness in stock, the symptoms being constipation, feverishness and 'swelling at throat and neck!'....- The leaf contains urease and tne stem a trace....The plant gives negative antibiotic tests." Paxton (180) avers that this species was introduced into cul- tivation in Ungland as V. venosa in 1330 and as V. rugosa in G33: Fournier (1961) reduces it to synonymy under V. chamaedryfolia [=V. peruviana (L.) Britton], which is palpably ridiculous. Dupuis (1360) calls it "Verveine veinée" and describtes it as "Vivace, cul- tivée comme annuelle; tige de 50 a 65 cent.; feuilles lancéolées, dentées; fleurs pourpre violacé, en épi ramassé; juin-octobre." Bailey (1972) describes the Species as "An erect perennial that grows to 2 ft. It has narrow, sharply toothed leaves 2 to 3 in. long, and purple flowers in dense spikes 3? in. long. Blooms the first year from seed." Trimen (1895) refers to it as a "native of South Brazil, &c." and says that in Ceylon it "has escaped from gardens in’ the hitls, and is often found in a wild state on roadsides and waste ground about Nuwara Eliya." Alston (1931) separates this species from V. bonariensis L. by saying that in V. rigida the inflorescence is “much-branched, the bracts equal the calyx-segments, and the corollas are violet in color, while in V. bonariensis the inflorescence is usually simple, the practs are longer than the calyx-segements, and the coroilas are pale-mauve in color. He notes that "Trimen's specimens appear to be V. bonariensis", but says that the true V. rigida (which he calls V. venosa) Goes occur in Ceylon in "Grassy sy places about Nu- vara jliya & llakcala" «here it flowers in May and September. Mueller-Dombois encountered it at Chiya in badulla District, where it "probably escaved from cultivation." A garden hybrid of this species with V. officinalis L. has been called xV. officinali-venosa Paxt., which see. Material of V. ahaa been nieseentt ed and distributed in some herbaria as xV. hybrida Voss. On the other hand, the Amara- tunga 695 and Balakri shnan NBK. 1038, distributed as v. rigida, @ are actually V. bonariensis hes Din sen.

The name that must be adopted for this species, V. simplex, is apparently based on a specimen cultivated in the Hamburg (Gennany) Botanical Garden in or before 1825. Mazzeo (1972) cites Mazzeo & Schaffner 2249 from dry soil in Warren County, Virginia; Ellis, Wofford, & Chester (1971) found the species in Stewart County, Tennessee, and in Lyon and Trigg Counties, Kentucky; Fell (1955) reports it as "Not uncommon on dry prairies, gravel hills, and in sandy places" in Winnebago County, Illinois, growing with the "uncommon" xV. blanchardi Mol- denke and the "common and variable" xV. moechina Moldenke. Eilers (1971) says that V. simplex is frequent on sandy prairies and on alluvial flats in the Cedar River drainage in Io- wa, and cites it from Benton, Blackhawk, Bremer, Buchanan, Cerro Gordo, Johnson, and Linn Counties. Evers (1955) found it growing "in seven hill prairies, in either rocky soil or loess" in Jllin- ois. Benner (1932) asserts that it is rare and local in dry fields and waste places in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and cites collections by Fretz and Clayton fram East Rockhill Towmship, by Brown from Tullytown, and by an unidentified collector from Pine- ville and Wrightstown. Stone (1911) says that in his day it was found on open ground in southern New Jersey, "occasional through- out the State, especially in the Middle district. A weed in many places, and the few Pine Barren records are all to be so regarded". He gives its flowering period as "Early June to late July and spor- adically into September". Torrey (183) found it in New York state in "Sandy fields and dry hill-sides on the island of New- York", flowering fram July to August. Willis (1830) cites a col- lection by Fisher from Westchester County, New York. Wherry (1971) records it from Montgomery County and Twining (1917) from Monroe County, Pennsylvania. Dole (1937) records V. simplex from Bennington and Windsor counties, Vermont, citing unnumbered collections by Blanchard and by Kittredge, while Musselman and his associates (1971) record it from Rock County, Wisconsin, citing a Skavlem collection in the University of Wisconsin herbarium. The Engelmann s.n. cited below consists only of floral dissec— tions for comparison with related species and hybrids. Recent collectors have found the plant growing on limestone cliffs, in dry upland meadows, in prairie patches on Cedarville dolomite, and in open Danthonia-Diodia communities, as well as on limestone-gravelly prairies, flowering and fruiting in July. Pax- ton (180) calls it "worthless" as a horticultural subject. The 197 Moldenke, Notes on Verbena 387 corollas on Allard 3100 are described as having been "blue" when fresh, on E. H. . HH. Walker 3656 as "lavender", and on Leonard & Al- lard 20688 a, as "light ‘purplish~blue". The E. L. Braun s.n.

Musselman and his associates (1971) refer to it as "common" on dry prairies and in fields and pastures in Rock County, Wisconsin. The Engelmann s.n., cited below, con sists only of floral dissections mounted so as to be compared with those of related species and hybrids. Additional vernacular names recorded for V. stricta are "mullien-leaved vervain" [sic!], "verveine fasciculée", and "wooly vervain" [sic!]. The corollas on Dress 9009 are said to have been "bright violet-blue" when fresh; Bailey describes them as "purple". Delorit (1970) describes the seeds of this plant as "Oblong in outline; about the same width throughout. Dorsal side convex, its margins winged downward; ventral side granular, two-faced forming a longitudinal ridge where they join. Both ends of the seed usu- ally bluntly rounded. Dorsal side usually with five and occasion- ally six longitudinal ribs which run part way or the entire length of the seed and are joined by transverse ribs in the upper one- fourth to one-third of the seed. The central veins usually are joined by transverse ribs only in the upper one-fourth of the seed. Usually about the same width throughout the seed. Seed scar oval, oblique, white. Reddish-brown. 2.l—-3.1 m long, 0.6— 0.8 mm wide," Martin, Zim, & Nelson (1951) report that the seeds of this spe- cies are eaten by such birds as the stilt sandpiper, lark bunting, cardinal grosbeak, junco, and the field, song, swamp, tree, and white-—crowned sparrows and the entire plant is eaten by cottontail rabbits. Wilkinson & Jaques (1972) describe the species as "Common in pastures and fields", flowering from June to September. S#ilers (1971) found it common in sandy open areas in Iowa and records it from Benton, Blackhawk, Bremer, Cerro Gordo, Chickasaw, Delaware, Fayette, Floyd, Grundy, Hardin, Johnson, Linn, Mitchell, and Win- neshiek Counties in that state. Crum (1972) says that it is fre- quent on moist to dry prairies in Blackhawk County, Iowa, flower- ing there in June. Fell (1955) avers that it is a "common road- side weed [in Winnebago County, Illinois]", sometimes growing with the white- or the roseate-flowered forms. Blewitt (1926) records it from roadsides in New Haven County, Connecticut, but says that it is "Rare" there and "Adventive from the West", blooming there in July and August. Wherry (1971) records it as introduced in Montgom- ery County, Pennsylvania, while Twining (1917) found it in Luzerne 390 P EY, 70 L.0 Gtk Vol. 28, no. County. Evers (1955) found it on forty-two, or 80.6 percent, of the hill prairies of Dllinois. It occurs in only 2.1 percent of the relict prairie sites in southwestern Michigan. Oertel (1939) lists V. stricta as a honey and pollen plant in Iowa. Miller (1973) reports the isolation of verbenalin, the glucoside of verbenalol, in this species. Paxton (180) regarded it as "worthless" from a horticultural standpoint. The J. Gunderson 264, distributed as V. stricta, is actually xV. engelmannii Moldenke, while Thibault enn is xV. rydbergii Mol- denke.

Petzat & Rechinger (1967) also describe it as "decumbens" in their key, but in their formal diagnosis say "“Annua, 20—)0 cm alta, hispidula, canescens, ramis ascendentibus vel. decumbenti- bus". Raeuschel (1797) also describes it as an armual plant, giving "Hispan." as the distribution of V. supina and "arabia" for what he calls V. procumbens. Additional common names for this plant recorded by Hartwell (1971) are "herba verbena", "hierabotane", "peristereon", "yerbenaca", and "vervain". These names, however, are more usual- ly regarded as applying to V. officinalis L., so it is a matter of doubt whether the medicinal uses which he also records may not ac- tually apply instead to that species rather than to this one. At all events, Hartwell records the following medicinal uses for V. supina: with Wine in the treatment of corns on the feet, as a de- coction in vinegar for "Indurations and gatherings; callosities", as a plaster for parotid tumors, and the juice in a cerate also for parotid tumors. Paxton (18/0) assures us that from a horti- cultural standpoint the species is "worthless", The Sennen & Mauricio 7656, distributed as V. supina and prev- iously so cited by me, seems ems better placed as £2 erecta Moldenke, as are also Faure s.n.

Its printed | label re reads. "Plantas d'Espagne", but the specimen was actually collected in Morocco. The Constable col- lection, also cited below, is described as having been "9—12 inches tall, of erect growth" and was actually first identified by the collector as V. officinalis L.

This is a hybrid which possibly occurs frequently in the wild since the ranges of the two species 39h P He TsO 5i70) Gy Eck Vol. 28, no. 4 overlap in Florida. The herbarium vouchers for the artificially produced hybrid should be carefully studied and compared with herbarium material now annotated as the one parent or the other in various herbaria.

Burkill (1966), speaking of the economic plants of the Malay Peninsula, says "V. tenera, Spreng., of the Argentine can be grom more freely, as it is possible to propagate it by cuttings". Hep- per (1963) says "V. tenera Spreng., a native of S. America, has been introduced into Nigeria (Obubra Dist., FHI 396); a creeping herb with very dissected leaves and white or violet flowers." I believe that both authors are speaking of V. tenuisecta Bria. rather than the true V. tenera. Similarly, Willians (199) speaks of V. tenera as cultivated on Zanzibar and Pemba islands, describ- ing the plant as having small flower-heads, finely divided leaves, and deep-mauve corollas with a white eye. Probably he is also talking about V. tenuisecta. Bailey (1972) describes V. tenera as "A shrubby plant with purple flowers in long spikes. Native to southern Brazil." Certainly the plant is not shrubby, so it is not clear to what species Bailey is referring. Gay (1849) says of the genus Verbena: "En Chile son muy comunes, pero es sin duda por equivocacion que se le ha mencionado la Verb. tenera de Spr." I have not seen any material of it from Chile. The Sellow specimen depicted in the Bailey Hortorium photograph cited below is deposited in the herbarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew.

It seems most probable that the "V. tenera" of dilliams (1949) cultivated on Pemba and Zanzibar islands, the "V. tenera" and "V. erinoides" of Burkill (1966), the "V. bipinnatifida" of Drar (1970), the "V. Bipinnatifida" of Park: (1972), the "V. tenera" of Hepper (1963), and the "V. pinnatifida" of Nair & Rehman (1962) are all actually V. tenuisecta, a species far more wide- spread in cultivation and escaped from cultivation than the spe- cies named by these authors. Park (1972) describes his plant as "A showy 15 in. everblooming perennial in lavender-blue with lovely fern-like foliage". Beadle and his associates (1972) de- scribe it as a "Prostrate and ascending annual less than 50 cm high. Introd. from S. Amer.", the "Upper and lower leaves ca. 2 cm long, all deeply divided and subdivided." Venter (1972) re- fers to it as an "Herb of disturbed places", with purple flowers, blooming from September to February in South Africa. The specimen depicted in the Bailey Hortorium photograph cited below of Morong 219 is deposited in the herbarium of the United 396 P H.Y 2.0.4.0 G1 A Vol. 28, no. i States Department of Agriculture, while that of JUrgensen 2165 is in the United States National Herbarium at Washington. Recent collectors describe this plant as 8 inches tall (Col- lins), in erect clumps 9 inches tall (Bayliss), or 12 inches tall (McClintock), anc have found it growing on rocky campos, dry roadsides, sandy roadfills, in stream bottoms, and very sandy soil in full exposure to the sun, while Lindeman & Haas refer to is as "gregarious on campos".

Pancho asserts that it is "commonly cultivated in most Philippine Islands gardens". Hatschbach & Guimarfes refer to it as a "rare form".

Torrey (1843) describes its corollas a "white or sometimes slightly tinged with rose-color" and gives its habitat as "Road=-sides, old fields, etc.; very common [in New York state]. Probably introduced from Europe. July-September. This plant was held sacred among the ancients, and used in making leagues by am- bassadors, sacrificial rites, incantations, etc." The latter part of this statement is, of course, completely erroneous. Verbena urti- cifolia is native only to North America (not Europe!) and was not known to the ancients! The plant he is here erroneously referring 197 Moldenke, Notes on Verbena 401 to is the Old World V. officinalis. The rose-colored form to which he alludes is now known as V. urticifolia var. incarnata (Raf.) Moldenke.

VITEX NEGUNDO var. PURPURASCENS Sivarajan & Moldenke, var. nov. Haec varietas a forma typica speciei recedit ramis foliisque subtus paniculisque calycibusque corollisque dense purpurso—- pubescentibus, corollis uhique atropurpureis, fauce pilis griseis et purpureis intermixta, filamentis styloque purpureis, et fila- mentis ad basin purpureo-pilosis. This variety differs from the typical form of the species in having its branches, under surface of the leaflet-blades, panicles, calyxes, and corollas densely purple-pubescent (slightly fading in age), the corollas deep-purple throughout, their throat with gray and purple hairs mixed, the stamen filaments purplish and with purple hairs at the base, and the style purple. In the typical form of the species the branches and under surface of the leaflets are densely gray-pubescent, the panicles, calyxes, and corollas are gray-pubescent, the corolla-tube is light-pink, the limb is light-purple, and the throat has only gray hairs within, the fila- ments are white with gray hairs at the base, and the style is white. The type of the variety was collected by V. V. Sivarajan (no. 18h9) on the Calicut University campus in Calicut, India, on May 9, 9, 197h, and is deposited in my personal herbarium at Plainfield, New Jersey. I am indebted to Dr. Sivarajan for the details of the description and comparisons. FLOTSAM AND JETSAM OF CANTON ATOLL, SOUTH PACIFIC Otto & Isa Degener Canton, a Pacific Ocean atoll lying between latitude 2° 46* and 2° 52° S., and longitude 171° 37" and 171° 44" wW., is the most north- ern of eight low coral islands comprising the Phoenix Group. Resem= dling a pork chop in shape, it is about eight miles long, and has its longer axis lying roughly from its narrower eastern end to its four miles wide western end (figs 1). The atoll consists of a rim 150 to 1,800 feet wide enclosing a shallow lagoon of about 25 square mileso The greatest elevation of the island is twenty feet. Evidently built around a volcanic core, the atoll consists main- ly of the calcareous skeletons and shells of invertebrates, frag- ments of coralline algae, and a few vertebrate skeletonse All have been comminuted into sand and powder, andor cemented into vast stretches of calcite. These last rim the island and are worn smooth by the waves washing back and forth over them with scouring materi- al. The dry atoll rim of calcite fragments, sand and powder is more or less glued together by felt-like or gelatinous films of numerous genera of blue-green algae (Degener & Degener 1959). Bird excre= ment, hardly guano, accumulates under the rookeries of booby and frigate birds nesting preferably on scaevola bushes (Murphy et ale, 1954; figs 2). Rare areas of humus may be found in patches of for- est, the result not only of fallen twigs and leaves, but from ac- cumulated excrement of the terrestrial hermitcrab Coenobita perlat- use Some of this earth, an estimated collection of 1,000 years, may be four inches deepe The atoll was of little importance until Pan American World Air- ways began to use it as a refueling station in 1939 for aircraft on Honolulu-Auckland flights. As both Great Britain and the United States laid claim to this flat area, the controversy was amicably settled April 6, 1939 by agreement to administer the atoll jointly as a condominium for fifty years and "thereafter until such time as it may be modified or terminated by mutual consent." With outbreak of World War II, Canton became the hub of Pacific air movement by United States Military Forces. In 1942, with 1,143 Army personnel stationed there, it was used for antisubmarine search and photo- graphic reconnaisance missions. A year later it was the main base for the conquest of the Gilbert Islands from the Japanese. By 1950 commercial activity was at its senith, with four major airlines in- volved and a resident force of about 300 Americans and Britishe With continuous improvement in airplanes, the importance of Can- ton as a refueling station waned. The last scheduled commercial stop was in 1959. That same year the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) selected Canton as Project Mercury Tracking 405 1,06 PHY POL OG. A Vol. 28, no. h Station Number 11, and for a few years until 1966 to support the astronauts in Project Geminis During 1968 the Government of Ameri- can Samoa was permitted to salvage whatever it wanted from deacti- vated installations. In 1970 the atoll became a Space and Missile Test Center serviced by United States personnel, many being Samoans (Bickett 1971 for details and references). As Botanical Consultant for Canton Atoll for the Civil Aeronau- tics Administration (CAA), Otto Degener explored and worked on the atoll for a week in July 1950 and for six weeks in April-May 1951. Isa Degener and he then continued study of the atoll for about three weeks in February-March 1958. Canton has been under the scrutiny of many scientists practic- ing diverse disciplinese According to the entomologist van Zwalue wenburg (1942) on Canton "Between December 1940 and February 1941 there were some weeks of strong westerly winds which attained a velocity of 55 knotse The effect of these prolonged gales on the normal ocean currents, though temporary, must have been consider-= able. Drift-borne seeds were absent or at least inconspicuous on the Canton beaches the year before, but by Augugt they were a striking feature of the shore line everywhere. It is assumed that their presence is a result of the gales of the previous winter." He forthwith mentions what he considers to be Myristica spe, En- tada scandens, Inocarpus edulis, Mucuna spp. (ay, Caesalpinia cris- ta, Canarium spe, Barringtonia speciosa, Terminalia catappa, Cer- bera odollam, unidentified spp. OF Aleurites moluccana, Pandanus Spey and viable Cocos. "Seeds of many of the species listed had sprouted after stranding. Between 35 and 50 coconut sprouts were estimated to be still present in September along the entire 27- mile perimeter of the island, but these were only a fraction of the total number of coconuts cast up. Some of the hazards attende ing the survival of seedling plants from drift seeds are obvious: Coenobita olivieri Owen /C. perlatus] shred the husk of coconuts and eat out the contents of the sprouted nuts; flood tides drench many seedlings with sea waters in at least one case high water buried a sprouted palm deep in sand. So the complete failure of any of the above named species to become established on Canton in the past - - = is not surprising when, to the hazards already mention- ed, are added the inevitable recurrent shortages of raino"™ When we visited the island in the winter of 1957-58, we similar- ly found on its beaches great accumulations of floated debris, most- ly wood (fig. 3), fruits and seeds (fig. 4) reminiscent of the situ- ation mentioned by van Zwaluwenburg. Such objects, often with super- ficial scrutiny, can be identified to the genus; and, particularly fruits and seeds, to the species. For the specific determination of thousands of puzzling Canavalia seeds, however, considerable space in a garden is needed to raise them so that the plants can be iden- tified by study of flowers, legumes and seeds. We lacked such spaceo Nevertheless, one questionable Canton seed collected in 1958 and 197 O. & I. Degener, Canton Atoll 07 planted in our garden at Mokuleia Beach, Oahu, Hawaii, is now a 50 foot tall Hernandia peltata Meissn. Though hundreds of seeds of Ery- thrina were collected on Canton, only a few were pjanted in the gar- den. One, allowed to flower and fruit, was E. variegata var. orien- talis (L.) Merr. Becoming too ‘arge and beginning to buckle a house foundation, it was chopped down. Its larger limbs and its trunk seg- ments, rolled to the beach for disposal, soon struck root and sprout- ed. This variety evidently can colonize isolated islands not only by seed but by trunk fragments. With facilities to plant a thousand Can- ton seeds of Erythrina and a thousand of the very variable seeds of Canavalia, many as yet undescribed taxa might have been discoverede As many representative propagules were collected, chiefly along the north shore, as the expense of shipping them home permitted. Numbered voucher specimens have been deposited at the New York Bot- anical Garden (NY) with unicates, and similar collections at the U- niversity of Massachusetts (MASS), Berlin (B), Kew (K), Bishop Muse- um (BISH), Arnold Arboretum (A), Cornell (BH, CU), Geneva (G), Mun- ich (M), Smithsonian (US), St. Louis (MO), United States Department of Agriculture (USFS), Vienna (W) and elsewhere. Many of these spec- imens have been so efficiently filed away taxonomically that it is impracticable to reassemble them to ascertain their herbarium num- _ berse We succeeded in identifying most of the disseminules ourseliv- es. Dr. R. Melville independently identified many of the numbers we had identified and, in addition, many unknown to us; and so did like- wise Dr. Charles R. Gunn, Mr. John V. Dennis and Miss MeHe Stoneo Intrigued by a 1968 article by Dr. Gunn about stranded seeds and fruits along Florida's shore, we dusted off our old notes, photo- graphs and the few specimens remaining to us. We then prepared the present paper, with editorial suggestions from Gunn and Dennis. Two companion papers should follow: one, under authorship of Degeners, Gunn and Dennis, should describe and illustrate the Canton Atoll material in some detail; while the other, under authorship of Gunn and Dennis, might concentrate on wind and ocean currents in the Pa- cific, and buoyancye The following lists what we believe we collected on Canton. As the identification of certain propagules - especially of Canavalia, Erythrina, Mucuna, Terminalia - is difficult or impossible unless these can be grown to produce identifiable flowers, the list is a tentative one. Some of the specimens bear Degener & Degener collec- tion numbers. Cycadaceae: Cycas circinalis L., D. & D. 24,668. Podocarpaceae: ?Podocarpus elongata L'Herit.

Because drift logs had housed shipworms of various genera (Banksia Spe3 Martensia spp.; Teredo bensoni, T. clava, Te samoaensis) and some goose barnacles (Lepas anatifera), nearly a hundred wood sam- ples were collected. These were shipped to the late Dr. Charles H. Edmondson for his studies of wood-fouling organismse Hven logs of balsa, Ochroma pyramidale (Cave) Urbs, an American species, were founde These were conspicuous from other dicotyledonous wood by be- ing practically free of shipworms and entirely free of goose bar= nacles,This freedom of organisms on floating balsa is due more to the remarkable lightness of the wood than to any other factor. Bal- sa wood practically floats on the ocean surface and, with the slightest breeze, the wet surface is lifted out of the water and exposed to the drying air. Hence this wood, as a whole, is simply too dry to sustain marine organisms. In chopping drift logs for the pallets and shells, so necessary for the identification of shipworms, we came across several colo- nies of termites, such as Coptotermes formosana hitherto unrecord- ed from Cantone These insects appeared to have drifted to the atoll. It seems reasonable that wood boring insects can survive ocean trans-= portation within a tree trunk as time is not always sufficient for wood to get waterlogged through and through. Though not in a posi- tion to offer proof, it is possible for a knothole in a tree to seal over so that the enclosed cavity will house propagules of ani- mals and plants; eggs, cysts, the aestivating or hibernating organ- isms themselves, spores, seeds, fungus hyphae, etc. Such a drifted log, cast upon a sun-scorched beach and there decaying, would even- tually liberate such propagules into such an unfavorable environ- ment that most would succumb. But another factor promoting survival and colonization not only for "knothole migrants" but for drift fruits and seeds enters the picture. Living at the beach on northern Oahu, Hawaiian Islands, and hav- ing had cur home and garden devastated by the tsunami or "tidal waves" of April l, 1946 and March 9, 1957, we were overwhelmed by one truth. Tsunami are frequent and of enormous effect, pushing drift of all kinds a few feet to hundreds of feet inland from the inhospitable beach to often humus soil and loam. Such action of the tsunami is on a wholesale scale, entire coastlines usually totaling thousands of miles being affectedo For some years after a tsunami we eradicated seedlings of the wild, endemic naupaka kai (Scaevola sericea var. fauriei (Lévl.) Deg. & Dege) and of the exotic seagrape (Coccoloba uvifera (L.) L.) that 10 PHY TOL.06G TA Vol. 28, no. 4 continued to sprout in flower beds 200 to 300 feet inland from the stands along the beach. Similarly, on the south shore of Oahu, some years after the tsunami of 1946, Mr. Walter Bayer showed us health plants of the locally rare endemic taxon of Colubrina asiatica (Ly Brongne, that had sprouted from the elevated windrow of debris cast up in his garden. Anyone who has seen the hard-shelled eggs of geckos glued in holes and crevices of coconut and other logs along the beach will have an explanation - perhaps the true one - for the wide distribu- tion of such reptiles. Islands surrounded by great deeps with icy cold water even in the tropics, are beyond reach of most nonswimming, aquatic organisms un- less they have a pelagic stage of some duration in their life. If these do not reach the completely isolated island via floating logs or larger propagules, a rare but effective means of transportation may be available. In studying the beaches of Canton we have come a= cross quantities of gray to almost black blocks of pumice, and oc- casionally the shells of the pearly nautilus and the cuttlebone of the octopus. A random glance at dark pumice and more careful inspec= tion of pale nautilus and cuttlebone occasionally discloses the white of coral and the calcareous hcusing of marine wormse Such types, and many others, may well have reached Canton waters mature enough to reproduce their kind before being washed upon the beach to die. We wish to emphasize that electric light bulbs, other waste artifacts and garbage of Caucasian and Oriental civilizations, so common to many beaches, are conspicuously absent on Canton. Outstanding arti- facts were several outrigger canoes and a primitive paddle. Resi- dents claim that one canoe, definitely hollowed out with a stone adz, is of African origin. Study of a wood fragment, never collected, would have decided such claim. They are just bugs (Hemiptera, Family Vallidae); but to us, pa- thetic ones all the same. Just beyond where the strongest waves lap the beach, among foam, sand and coral blocks of various sizes, clum- sily and weakly hop exhausted marine waterstriders (Halobates mi- cans). They are black above, perhaps for desired warmth; pale bluish below to be camouflaged against attack by hungry fish fry looking up- ward from below. They are only a few millimeters longe Agile skaters on the surface film of ocean water, like their relatives on fresh water of American brooks and ponds, they are helpless when thorough= ly wetted during a storm or when blown unsuspectingly by the trade winds and swept by the breakers onto shores They are out of their element and here they diese Though living on the vast expanse of the ocean, they are no more water creatures than are the frigate birds flying overhead. This insect, to survive from generation to genera- tion, must find a chance piece of driftwood, seed, pumice or even floating feather upon which to lay its eggs: while the bird and the sea turtle must find an island like Canton to lay theirs. These wa- terstriders, we believe, had been Swept along the surface of the o- cean like the fruits and seeds by gale force winds rather than wash- ed by ocean currents to pile up on the beach. 1974 O. & I. Degener, Canton Atoll 411 Due to a spell of rainy weather germination of more or less salt freed seeds were so successful that the beach showed a narrow, faint line of green extending for many miles, a condition unknown to any resident of the time. In this line of drift not a single Canton spe= cies was noticed except Cassytha filiformis, Triumfetta procumbens —— SS = them not of local origine The sea hearts (Entada phaseoloides Sele), with large expanded cotyledons, a few leaves and a slender stem elongating vainly for a support to climb, were already beginning to suffer in February from the strong drying salt breeze. Not one became established. Thousands upon thousands of seedlings of the beach morningglory (Ipomoea pes-caprae var. enarginata) with stiff, thick, green, deep- ly notched cotyledons horizontally akimbo, were being daily eaten by the hermitcrab (c. perlatus), known in the vernacular as "Ber- nard." Various Mucuna species, probably rich in the poison L-dopa, were germinating merely to fall prey to these hungry hermitcrabse Of the myriad viable seeds that braved the ocean for unknown weeks and months without succumbing before landing on Canton shores, we failed to see a single successful introduction. This atoll simply does not offer conditions fit for survival of phanerogams excepting for the trees Cordia subcordata and Messerschmidia argentea (fig. 5), the vines moonflower (Calonyction tuba) and lovevine Cassytha filiformis), and thirteen other shrubs and herbs (fig. 6). These natives are described in Degener & Gillaspy (1955) and Degener & Degener (1958). Should certain kinds of seeds be washed farther in- land by a tsunami where shelter and favorable soil conditions would permit such adventives to establish themselves, they would be soon destroyed by the hermitcrabs. These congregate under bushes and trees during tne heat of the day, while at other times they roam over the atoll greedily scavenging in search of food (figs. 7, 8). Of individuals who have been on Canton, we wish to acknowledge the help of Island Manager Edwin Gillaspy and Mrs. Gillaspy; Mr. & Mrs. Albert Lincoln, well-informed residents and malacologists; and Dr. LeH.e MacDaniels, who analysed the soil and water of Canton many years ago.

Hermitcrabs roaming over atoll in search of food SPATHODSA IN HAWAII Otto & Isa Degener It may seem strange for residents of the Hawaiian Islands to burst into print regarding taxa of the African genus Spath- odea of the Bignoniaceae. Nevertheless, as three are grown here, we wish to dispel some local confusion regarding theme The glabrous taxon with scarlet flowers having a silky to- mentulose calyx with elevated nerves is widely planted as a street tree. This we consider to be Spathodea campanulata Beauv. According to Welwitsch in Iter Angolense, in Journ. Sot. London 3:332. 1°45, it occurs naturally in Golungo Alto and CaZengo. The taxon with leaves densely tawny puberulent beneath and ith scarlet flowers having a silky tomentulose calyx with im- pressed nerves was flourishing about the Botany Building on the University of Hawaii campus between 1922 and 1927. This is men= tioned in Degener, 0., Flora Haw. Fam. 321. 12/24/34. It still occurs, but rarely, in some gardens in the State. In spite of some leading botanists considering it synonymous with the above species, we consider this to be typical Spathodea nilotica Seem. Accoreéing to page 333 of the Iter, this "Bushy scarlet flowered tree" came from "Ungoro Glav., Aug. 1860. Speke and Grant's Sxpedition to the Sources of the Nile.” Recently a third taxon appeared in the Islands which to- tanically is of modest interest, but horticulturally is caus-= ing a furor. we here nane its Spathodea, nilotica forma bryanii Deg. & vege, Zs nove A specie corolla filnvr differt.

As Kelsey & Dayton (Stancardized Plant Names, Bd. 2. 1942.) chose "flambeautree" for members of Spathodea, we here name this new taxon “Sryans flambeautree™ with the vain hope of dis- couraging its local name of "Bryans Kona gold" from becoming popular. "Kona" applies to a Hawaiian district hardly associat- ed with the taxon, and "gold" might apply to any kind of yel- low-flowered plant whatsoever. The corolla, style and filaments, instead of being red, are "pumpkin-yellow." According to retired forester Bryan (letter dated March 5, 1974), “ily seed came from Peter Greensmith of Nairobi, Kenya, Africa thru David Barry, Jr. who operates the California Jun- gle Nursery in Los Angeles." The name "Bryans Kona Gold" was printed Oct. 12, 1973 in the "West Hawaii Today" newspeper; and Oct. 14+ with text and colored plate in the magazine sec- tion of the “Hawaii Tribune-Herald" by County Agent Norman Bezona. We had never realized the complicated history of this 419 420 PUY TO-L0Gs1 A Vol. 28, no. or of a similar form until we communicated with Dr. -rederick G. Meyer of the U.S. National Arboretum, who sent us a copy of the American Horticulturist, Vol. 52. Spring 1974. There Dre wdwin A. Menninger writes about "The Yellow African Tulip Tree” in some detail. That our form is strictly a cultisen is questionable. According to Hegeling & Dale (Indizenous Trees of Uganda. 4d. 2. 42. 1952.) "A form with rich buttercup yel- low flowers, well worth perpetuating, occurs in Bugishu end a somewhat similar tree has been found in Mengo." BISHOP'S "INVENTORY" Otto & Isa Degener After eighteen months of research Dr. Luther Marl Bishop authored *Honolulu Botanic Gardens Inventory 1972," a 294 page book measuring eight by eight inches. It was published by the Friends of Foster Gardens Press in 1973. Its thick eggshell brown, Nanila cover attractively binds about thirty pases to include a "Forward" and an introduction to seven botanic gar= dens located on the Island of Oahu. The oldest and most in- teresting historically is Poster Botnic Garden located in downtown Honolulue Foster Botanie Garden, also known as Foster Park, had been the home of the German William Hillebrand, physician to Hawai- ian royalty and author of the prized "Flora of the Hawaiian Is- lands," published posthumously in 1885. During his twenty years* residence in Honolulu, Hillebrand (b. 1821 - d. 1°35) cultivated choice Hawaiian and exotic plants in the garden about his home in Nuuanu Valley. In 1880 the Canadian Thomas R. Foster purchased the property. He married Mary Slivabeth Robinson (1844-1930), also known by her Yawaiian name Mikaha- la, the daughter of James Robinson anc a Jawaiian chiefess. A convert to Buddhism, the aging widow had seen the ghost of Captain Foster riding his favorite horse, nizhts, among the towering trees in her garden. This dream may have helped the tactful and understanding botanist Harold L. Lyon (1°79-1957) to prevail upon Mrs. Foster to deed this property to the City and County of Honolulu as a "public and tropical park to be known as Foster Park." Thus the Board of Public Farks and Re= creation assumed responsibility for the five and a half acres in 1931. Botanist Lyon became Director of the Garden until his death, whereupon Landscape Architect Paul R. Weissich took over the positions By 1972 the Honolulu Botanic Garden System, under the latter's able guidance, had grown to seven botanic gardens comprising 266 acres! The "Inventory" proper lists the plants by binomials, for- tunately with authorities; the accession number, giving the 1974 0. & I. Degener, Bishop's "Invontory" 21 student ready opportunity to consult additional information re- corded on the proper filing card in the J. F. Rock Memorial Library; the geographical source; and in which of the seven gardens each species is growing. Page 35 to 6 are devoted to about 75 species and named cultigens of ferns and their al- lies; page 47 to 55 to about 100 Gymnosperms and their allies; page 59 to 197 (not 167) to about 2,200 Dicots; and page 199 to 287 to about 1,400 Monocots. Thousands of additional spe= cies, identified to the genus only, are likewise listed. Fam- ilies in these groups are arranged alphabetically. A map and eleven full page plates illustrate the worke As expected with such a wealth of binomials the reader, like the reviewers, may question come listings. Personally, we believe many legumes deserve segregation into different genera largely according to pod characters; and that some of the orthography be altered such as Alyxia olivaeformis to A. oliviformis, Senecio kleiniaeformis to 5S. kleiniiformis, Boer= haavia to Boerhavia, Casasia clusifolia to C. clusiifolia, Phaius to Phajuse Besides being delightful and instructive to residents and tourists alike, these plantings indicate what species will and will not thrive at an elevation from sea levei to 1,300 feet, at an exposure of 24 to 52 inches of rainfall per year, and to extremes of 55° to 95° Fahrenheit. The reviewers hope that State Legislators will realize that these seven kipuka, or o- ases amid condominiums and asphalt, can be bound together by streets and highways adorned and shaded by fascinating plants already tested for survival. With proper avpropriations to the Department of Parks and Recreation, Honolulu can Ddecome a true botanical garden city. It is fortunate that the Friends of Foster Garden, ince, with the backinz of various eleemosynary Trusts, was enabled to finance and publish Luther &. Bishop’s “Inventory.” The work is to be distributed to more than three hundred leading botanical gardens in the World. The book is enlishteninz. BOOK REVIEWS Alma L. Moldenke "THE RAND McNALLY ATLAS OF WORLD WILDLIFE" edited by Sir Julian Huxley (consultant), Martyn Bramwell et al., 208 pp., illus. Mitchell Beazley Ltd., London, & Rand McNally & Co., San Francisco, California 9,10), New York, N. Y. 10019, Chicago, Box 760, T1linois 60680. 1973. $25. 60 oversize. If the long-time conservationist, Sir Julian Huxley, can write in the Foreword "I myself have learned much from the Atlas, gain- ing especially a better comprehension of world ecology", there must surely be much to learn in store here for all of us — child- ren, general readers, teachers, all kinds and levels of scientists. The vast amount of content-material is organized through attrac- tive panoramas, dynamic charts, outstanding wildlife photographs, and valuable maps for the nature of the world before man's arrival and his impact since then and for the major biogeographical regions of our earth. These colorful composite layouts, drawings and photographs reveal so effectively much of ecological and etholog- ical relationships among variously feeding and breeding animals with each other and with their surrounding plant life and with mane Any adverse criticisms are of minor import: misspellings such as for invertebrates on p. 12, proboscis on p. 83, myxomatosis and virginica on p. 177, etc.; misstatements such as "Most life forms must either climb or swim unless they are birds or fish" on p. 4O and "thick heavy bills of some [finches] are the result of a need to crack open tough seeds and nuts" on p. 173; loss of clarity in a few small color photographs as the Kenyan pastoral scene on p. 179, etc.; the orphaning of the angiosperms in the diagram on p. 12; and the occasional elimination of Sri Lanka (Ceylon) from the southern tip of India on maps like those on pp. 120 & 121. Because the text is clear and the glossary very short, the latter is really non-functional. Considering the price of books today, this one is really a bargain; considering the contents, it is a treasurehouse! "INSECT/PLANT RELATIONSHIPS" edited by H.

These 13 valuable papers and their subsequent interesting dis— cussions were presented at the 6th Symposium of the Royal Entomo- logical Society held in the Imperial College, London, in September 1971. Hach paper carries its own bibliography. It is disappoint- ing that there is no general index to all this important material of concern to so many different kinds of biologists, students and 22 197k Moldenke, Book reviews 423 technicians. Since the papers are all well written, choosing favorites must be determined by the reader's personal interests from such topics as Yeo's "floral allurements for pollinating insects", Rothschild's "Secondary plant substances and warning colouration in insects", Schoonhoven's "Plant recognition by lepidopterous larvae", and Southwood's introductory paper on the evolutionary perspective of this insect/plant relationship. "RATTLESNAKES: Their Habits, Life Histories, and Influence on Mankind" by Laurence hi. Klauber, Second Revised idition, Volumes I & II, xxx & xvii & 1533 pp., illus., published for the Zoological Society of San Diego by the University of California Press, London, Los Angeles, California, Berkeley, California 94720, & New York, N.Y. 10017. 1972 [1973]. $50.00 boxed. Since the original publication in 1956 of this highly regarded definitive study, the author had continued expansion and revision until shortly before his terminal illness in 1968. The first three chapters were completely rewritten with revised taxonomy, with keys, expanded zoogeorravhy with distribution maps, paleontology and phylogeny. Other additional material has been interspersed in the rest of the text and a considerably supplemental bibliography has been appended, The very detailed table of contents and the full index make for facile selective hunting of information. But because the content is of intrinsic interest and because its presentation is simple, direct and supplied with extrinsic interest, one just reads on and on. Botanists in the field wishing more information than is provided in most field cuides and those within academic walls will find this work of great learning value to themselves and to their students. "SVOLUTIONARY STUDIES IN WORLD CROPS: Diversity and Change in the Indian Subcontinent" edited by Sir Joseph hutchinson, viii & 175 pp., illus., Cambridge University Press, London Nl 2DB and New York, N. Y. 10022. 1974. $11.95. This condensed careful siudy summarizes for the interested reading public the Symposium held in New Deihi in 1970 on Crop Plant Evolution set against the time scale of agricultural devel- opment. "The evolutionary changes in Indian crop plants.....here re- corded [west Asian wheat and barley, south Asian and African rice, Coix, rape, mustard, castor bean, pigeon pea, cotton, okra, Solanum nigrum, and New liorld maize, grain amaranths and potatoes] have gone on in response to the needs of an agricuitural system that changed only slowly over the past 500 years. The rate of change 2h PH yee TioiGer Vol. 28, no. has increased enormously in the last twenty years, and the needs . of the new acriculture for suitable varieties will only be met in so far as genetic change matches changes in the crop environment.. "The so-called Green Revolution is fundamentally a fertility revolution." That dwarf Mexican wheat produces its high yields in India only under heavy fertilization and irrigation. The book is composed of fourteen papers by Indian scientists on paleobotany and specific crops and two evaluating ones by the fanous =nglish editor. It has a valuable bibliography and index. It is also available in even less expensive paper binding in ELBS countries. "ALLAN CUNNITCGHAM: Eotanist and Explorer" by W. G.

This is a succinctly and carefully written account of Cunning- ham as a scientist and therefore of his training, his exploratory travels first to Ezazil and then "Down Under" and his associa- tions with his mentor, Sir Josepn Banks, and others and as a human being who was precise, kind, sensitive (really supersensi- tive) and tremendously industrious despite lingering physical limitations. "The most striking feature of Cunningham's charac- ter was a concern for detail and propriety." His faithfully kept journal, his plant introductions, and his herbarium at kew vouchsafe the value of his scientific contributions. People interested in the plants and places bearing his name or his study will find this book interesting and carefully docu- mented with notes anc bibliography and well indexed.

Originally published in 1905 and covering the Gray's "Manual" area, this unabridged republication will be a real asset to the growing number of amateur naturalists and ecologically oriented students who wonder what that attractively berried herb or shrub or tree is. The simple keys, descriptions, and-80 illustrations are still helpful. The nomenclature has been brought up to date in an additionel outline by E. S.

SUPPLEMENT Harold N. Moldenke Since the publication of Supplement 3 in Phytologia 26: 356— 377 last year a vast amount of new material has come to light which will be of value to the many users of my "Fifth Summary" (1971). Some of this new material comes from the excellent bo- tanical researches being conducted on these groups by Santiago Lépez~Palacios in Venezuela and Nelida Troncoso in Argentina and from the excellent breeding and genetic work by Otto Solbrig on the Glandularia group of Verbena. Since Supplement 3 went to press I have been able to examine 7,101 additional herbarium specimens of these groups chiefly fran the United States National Herbarium, the herbaria of the Universities of Arizona, Colorado, Texas, Wisconsin, Aarhus, Brasflia, Cairo, Calicut, Karachi, Peradeniya, and Zttrich, the Missouri and New York Botanical Gardens, the Oakes Ames Economic Museum, and certain private herbaria. These specimens have brought to light hundreds of new geographic records and even several new undescribed taxa, particularly since some represent the collections recently made along the newly opened portions of the Pan-American Highway and the new Trans-Amazonian Highways of Brazil. Contimed investigation has revealed the necessity for chang- ing the taxonomic rank of several well-knowm species to variety or form and several taxa have had to be resurrected from the synonymy into which they had previously been sunk, especially in the genera Lippia, Phyla, and Stachytarpheta. Several hundred changes and/or additions have had to be made in the listing of rejected names because of the above-mentioned changes in status and because of the wealth of new botanical and horticultural literature which has been reviewed, largely by my wife, Alma L. Moldenke, in which so many additional errors in spelling and/or accredition have been found, some of which could be most confusing to workers not expert in the group and which therefore might be copied and perpetuated in the mistaken belief of their validity. It is manifestly impractical for me to attempt to correct the printed and typewritten annotations made by me over the past ],6 years on such of the 223,432 herbarium specimens thus far examined by me as may be involved in these and other recent name-changes, since these specimens are scattered in no less than 306 herbaria all over the world. I shall have to depend on the curators of these herbaria, if they wish to do so or feel it worthwhile to do so, to make the proper ici a on the information presen- 26 PHYTOLOGIA Vol. 28, no. 5 ted in these Supplements and in my various generic monographs and their supplements which appear regularly on the pages of this journal. Herbarium voucher citations for the new distribution records and bibliographic citations for the new rejected names will, as usual, be found in my generic monographs and/or their supple- ments . Addenda & errata to Part I: Wherever the name "Stachytarpheta australis Moldenke" occurs, it should be changed to S. dichotana (Rufz & Pav.) Vahl; wherever "Stachytarpheta australis f. albiflora Moldenke" occurs, it should be changed to S. dichotoma f. albiflora (Moldenke) Voldenke; where- ver "Stachytarpheta australis var. neocaledonica Moldenke" occurs, it should be changed to S. dichotoma var. neocaledonica (Moldenke) Moldenke; wherever "Premna gaudichaudii Schau." occurs it should be changed to P. obtusifolia var. gaudichaudii (Schau.) Moldenke; wherever "Aegiphila integrifolia (Jacq. ) Jacks." occurs it should be changed to A. integrifolia (Jacq.) Jacq.; and wherever "Vitex altissima f. alata (Willd.) Moldenke" occurs it should be changed to "V. altissima f. juv. alata (Willd.) Moldenke, Wherever "Koyama" occurs as an authority it should be changed to "T. Koy— ama", Where "Mysore" occurs as the name of an Indian state it should be changed to "Karnataka", where "Ceylon™ occurs it should be changed to "Sri Lanka", and where "Democratic Republic of the Congo" appears it should be changed to "Zaire".

NOTES ON NEW AND NOTEWORTHY PLANTS. LXX Harold N. Moldenke ERIOCAULON QUINQUANGULARE var. ELATIUS Moldenke, var. nov. Haec varietas a forma typica speciei foliis omnino rubris usque ad 15 cm. longis et pedunculis usquve ad O cm. longis recedit. This variety differs from the typical form of the species in having ifs Leaves and sheaths entirely bright red both when fresh and when dried, the leaves to 15 cm. long, and the flowering peduncles to 0 cm. long. The type of the variety was collected by Harold Norman Mol- denke, Alma Lance Moldenke, Don Bhathiya Sumithraarachchi, and Sheldon Waas (no, 28319), growing abundantly with Xyris Sp. in a rice paddy field at milepost }/ on the road from Mirigama to Divulapitiya, Davatagahawatta, Negombo, Colombo District, Western Province, Sri Lanka, on February Be 197k, and is deposi- ted in my personal herbarium at Plainfield, New jersey . The plant is reminiscent of E. quinquangulare var. martiamum Wall. and E. roseum Fyson, but does not have the proliferating flower-heads nor elongated bractlets. PAEPALANTHUS SPECIOSUS var. ATTENUATUS Moldenke, var. nov. Haec varietas a forma typica speciei foliis caulinis usque ad apicem longiter gradatimque attenuatis saepe plusminus arcu- atis recedit. This variety differs from the typical form of: the species in having its stem-leaves gradually long-attenuate to the apex and often more or less arcuate-recurved. The type of this variety was collected by Howard Samuel Irwin, Raymond M. Harley, and Gary Lane Smith (no. 32935) in the cerrado in an area of campo and cerrado on outcrops about 22 kn. north of Alto do Paraiso, at an altitude of about 1250 m., in the Chapada dos Veadeiros, on the Planalto do Brasil, Goids, Brazil, on March 22, 1971, and is deposited in my personal herbarium at Plainfield, New Jersey. The collectors describe the plant as having stems to 2 meters tall and white flower-heads. 1974 Moldenke, New and noteworthy plants 467 PAEPALANTHUS SPECIOSUS var. BOLIVIANUS Moldenke, var. nov. Haec varietas a forma typica speciei bracteis involucrantibus stramineo-brunneis nec nigris recedit. This variety differs from the typical form of the species in having its involucral bracts stramineous-brownish rather than black. The type of the variety was collected by Carl Ernst Otto Kuntze at 200 meters altitude near Velasco, Santa Cruz, Bolivia, in July, 1892, and is deposited in the Britton Herbarium at the New York Botanical Garden. PAEPALANTHUS SPECIOSUS f. CALVESCENS Moldenke, f. nov. Haec forma a forma typica speciei solum foliis caulinis glabris vel glabrescentibus recedit. This form differs from the typical form of the species only in having its stem-leaves completely glabrous or glabrescent at time of anthesis, but being elongate-ascending as in the typical form. The type of the form was collected by Hugh Algernon Weddell (no. 2133) somewhere in Goids, Brazil, in November or December, 184, and is deposited in the Britton Herbarium at the New York Botanical Garden.

ANDERSONII Moldenke, var. nov. Haec varietas a forma typica speciei recedit floribus pedicel- latis, racemis brevioribus, foliis obovato-spathulatis, et pubes- centibus brevissimis. This variety differs from the typical form of the species in its distinctly pedicellate flowers, often shorter racemes, the leaves obovate-spatulate in shape, and the very short puberulent pubescence on the stems and branches. The type of the variety was collected by William Russell Anderson (no. 7893) — in whose honor it is named — in open rocky cerrado traversed by a stream, at about 1000 m. altitude, 4 km. by road east of SHo Jo&%o de Alianca, in the Serra Geral do Paran&, Goids, Brazil, on March 24, 1973, and is deposited in my personal herbarium at Plainfield, New Jersey. The collector de- scribes the plant as a shrub, 1--2 m. tall, with red-orange corol- las. STACHYTARPHETA CHAMISSONIS var. LONGIPEDICELLATA Moldenke, war.nov. Haec varietas a forma typica speciei floribus longipedicellatis valde recedit. This variety differs from the typical form of the species in having its flowers conspicuously long-pedicellate. The type of the variety was collected by William R Ander- son (no, 660) on a rocky hillside in a region of rocky sandstone 4,68 Pi Y PO.UOrG: Tok Vol. 28, no. 5 hilltop cerrado, seeping hillsides, rocky open cerrado in raised places on hillsides, and open mesophytic woods by a stream, at an altitude of 1600 m., 20 km. by road north of Alto Parafso, in the Chapada dos Veadeiros, Goids, Brazil, on March 6, 1973, and is deposited in my personal herbarium at Plainfield, "New Jersey. The collector notes that the plant is a shrub, 2m. tall, with orange-red flowers. VITEX ALTISSIMA f. juv. ALATA (Willd.) Moldenke, stat. nov. Vitex alata Willd., Gesell. Naturforsch. Freund. Berlin Neue Schr. 4: 203. 1803. Observation in the field by my wife and myself in Sri Lanka this past winter indicates that Willdenow's plant seems to be only the juvenile state of the Sri Lankan glabrous variety of V. altissima, It has been claimed by Trimen (Handb. Fl. Ceyl. 358. 1895) that this form sometimes matures and produced inflorescences with the flowers "more laxly arranged", citing a collection by J. P. Lewis from Mulliativu. He says that "Mr. J. P. Lewis informs me that it has a different habit of growth to the ordinary tree, being taller and straighter. He found a few trees only at Vavaddai and Neduchaddikkulam." He cites V. alata Heyne and V. appendiculata Roth and adopts V. altissima vi var. alata Trimen as the name. It seems clear, however, that Willdenow's name has priority. My good friend, Magdon Jayasuriya, has kindly examined the Lewis collection in the Peradeniya herbarium and reports that Trimen's statement "leaves with broadly alate petioles" "is not quite true; however the petioles are only slightly winged toward [the] base". This condition is often seen in normal mature trees and so I think the broadly alate form is only a juvenile condition. My good friend, Dr. Edwin A. Menninger, has been growing this species in his Florida nursery and informs me that seedling trees always exhibit the broadly winged petioles. How- ever, when his trees reached flowering age this character was gradually lost. Ina letter to me dated November 18, 1957, he says “You will note that the flowering branch has lost most of the winged petiole effect, but this is still retained by the non- flowering branch next to it." On the many mature trees which my wife and I examined in Sri Lanka we did not find any of the broadly alate petioles, although non-flowering branches usually had the petiole base more conspic- uously winged. The broadly alate specimens so often found in herbaria seen, therefore, to represent a juvenile condition reminiscent of the juvenile forms of Eucalyptus and the juvenile forms of Chamaecyp- aris, such as C, obtusa ericoides Boehmer, C. pisifera plumosa (Carr.) Otto, ee pisifera squarro: squarrosa (Endl. ) Beiss. & Hochst., Ce pisifera minima 1a Hornibr., etc., as described by Rehder (Man. Cult. Trees, ed, 2, ie One EgE=6O2 190). Whether the juvenile fom of this Vitex. will ever be propagated as a horticultural subject remains for the future to disclose. A NEW MICRONESIAN TERMINALIA (COMBRETACEAE) F, R. Fosberg and M. V. C. Falanruw . During botanical exploration of the northern Marianas in 1972, a most unexpected discovery was a new species of Termi- nalia from Asuncion Island. It is described here. TERMINALIA ROSTRATA Fosberg and Falanruw, n. sp. Arbor partibus juvenalibus ochraceis tomentosis vel sericeis, foliis obovatis brevipetiolatis spicis elongatis, fructibus teretibus umbonatis non alatis non compressis. Tree to 8 m tall, 50 cm diameter of trunk, young growth, petioles, spikes yellowish tomentose, branchlets with proximal several cm slender, 5 mm thick, without leaf scars, distal por- tion with densely crowded large leaf and superposed inflores- cence scars, about 9-10 mm thick, branching apparently ''termi- nalioid;'"' leaves broadly obovate-cuneate, to 20 x 12 cm, apex rounded-subtruncate to very slightly acuminate or retuse, mucro- nulate, base cuneate, then abruptly contracted to a thick peti- ole about 5-7 mm long, 5 mm thick, principal veins 8-12 on a Side, not exactly opposite, lower pairs and uppermost ones weak, main ones arching upward to near margin, network of several orders, mostly not prominent, upper surface of blade glabrous except tomentose basal part of midrib, lower surface sparsely yellowish pubescent, densely so on midrib, more so toward base; spike when mature 16 cm long, tapering, portion distal to main fruit scars slender, yellowish tomentose; flowers about 2-3 mm long, broadly campanulate, throat 3 mm wide, with recurved ovate acutish lobes about 1.5 mm long, stipitate base tomentose to glabrate, throat externally sparsely pilosulose, glabrate, within densely and stiffly bearded; stamens 10, filaments subu- late, strongly exserted, glabrous, anthers oval, about 0.5 mm long; style slightly more exserted than stamens, slightly curved, then strongly hooked at apex; fruit 37 x 20 mm, very slightly pedicellate, pedicel and extreme base sericeous, body subcylindric, scarcely at all compressed, base slightly cordate- 4-lobed, apex forming a somewhat compressed beak about 1 cm long with 2 slight keels running about 1 cm down fruit from edges of beak, texture hard, woody, surface smooth, brown when dry, fruit floats in fresh water. The leaves resemble those of T. catappa, but with pubes- cence like that of T. samoensis; the fruit is not like that of any Pacific species. The plant is unfamiliar to Dr. A. C. Smith L69 4,70 Pol 01:06 T & Vol. 28, no. 5 who most recently revised some of the Pacific species (Brittonia 23:394-412, 1971) and who kindly examined this specimen. In Exell's key (Fl. Males I, 4:551-554, 1954) this plant runs to T. foetidissima Griff. to which it is undoubtedly most closely related. It differs in its broader, much more shortly petiolate leaves with more main veins, much more shortly pedun- culate, longer spikes, strongly hooked style, and differently shaped, strongly beaked fruit. In Exell's synopsis (op. cit. p. 550) IT. rostrata would seem to fit in his "Series E" with T. crassifolia, T. samoensis, and T. insularis, but does not seem close to any of these species, which have drupaceous fruits. A single large tree was found by Marjorie V. C. Falanruw, on Asuncion Island, in forest on lower slopes. Nothing like it is known elsewhere in Micronesia. The name alludes to the strongly beaked fruit. Marianas Is.: Asuncion Island, about 400 ft. elevation, July 7, 1972, Falanruw 2290 (US, type). A NEW VARIETY OF FAGRAEA BERTERIANA (GENTIANACEAE) by F. R. Fosberg and M.-H. Sachet Presented below is a brief discussion of the taxonomy of the Pacific Islands collective species, Fagraea berteriana Gray ex Benth., and the description of a new variety of this species from the Marquesas Islands. Fagraea Thunb., Vet. Acad. Handl. Stockh. 3:132, t.4, 1782. This genus is usually placed in the Loganiaceae, but is re- garded by us as closer to the Gentianaceae. A discussion of this is reserved for a future, more comprehensive paper. Fagraea berteriana Gray ex Benth., Jour. Linn. Soc. Bot. T3965 GUSS6r This species, first described from Tahiti, has been given an enormously wide circumscription by Leenhouts (Bull. Jard. Bot. Brux. 32:419-420, 1962; Fl. Males I, 6:335, 1962), with a geographical distribution extending from the Marquesas to New Guinea and Queensland, and north to the Marianas. We agree with 197k Fosberg & Sachet, New variety of Fagraea 471 this broad circumscription except that we do not include the quite distinct but related Fagraea ksid Gilg and Bened., of Palau. However, we cannot agree with Leenhouts that a subdivision into taxa of lower rank is impossible. We have had the greater part of such a subdivision in manuscript for quite a few years, but have not been able to study adequate material of some of the proposed varieties, so have refrained from publishing this work. It is necessary to include one of the varieties in a forth- coming treatment of certain families for the Flora of the Mar- quesas, so a description of this variety and a discussion of its relationship to the Tahitian varieties is offered here. Fagraea berteriana var. marquisensis Fosberg and Sachet, n. var. Arbor glabra, foliis obovatis, venis obscuris, lobis calycis 5-8 mm longis, tubo corollae 4.3-6 cm longo, pistillo incluso 4 cm longo.

Herbarium abbreviations are those in Index Herbariorum, ed. V, Regn. Veg. 31, 1964. This Marquesan population has heretofore been regarded as identical with that of Tahiti, and most descriptions of F. berteriana from eastern Polynesia have been partly based on it. However, the Tahitian plants, themselves, are by no means uni- form, and one very distinctive group of these has been segre- gated as F. longituba Grant (considered a variety of F. berteriana by us). as The remaining Tahitian specimens known to Grant were cited by him as F. berteriana [sensu stricto] and characterized by a corolla tube 6.5-8 cm long with style 5-6 cm long, obvi- ously included, thus differing in longer corolla tube and style from the Marquesan plant described here. Our notes on Tahitian specimens (which are not now avail- able to us), with one exception, indicate a different variety, characterized by a much shorter corolla, 3.5-6.5 cm, with an exserted style, differing in this latter respect from the Mar- quesan plant. The exception is one of the two U.S. Expl. Exped. sheets in NY which has corolla tube 7.7 cm long and style 6.7- 7.5 cm. The calyx lobes of this are unusually short, only 5 mm long. For the time being we follow Grant in accepting the Tahitian plant with corolla tube 6.5-8 cm long as var. berteriana, though this may be hard to establish until we can examine the material available to Bentham on which this species was founded. Bentham cited four specimens from the Society Islands, one from the Marquesas, and one from the Louisiade Archipelago. Of these Leenhouts (loc. cit.) has indicated that the Bertero specimen is type. This statement we are accepting as lectotypification, though this specimen is said by Guillémin (Ann. Sci. Nat. Bot. II, 7:248, 1937) to lack flowers. This fact will make it very difficult to establish which of the three Tahitian varieties should be called var. berteriana. This problem we may take up in a later paper after we have examined the original specimens. A NEW SLIPFER FLOWEK FROM SOUTHERN PERU G. Edwin and h, S.

A RSSUME OF THE GENUS TIPUANA (LEGUMINOSAE) Velva E. Rudd California State University, Northridge and Smithsonian Institution In the course of tabulating the numerous species originally assign- ed to Machaerium, but now excluded from that genus, a number of sec- ondary problems have come to my attention. One such involves the now monotypic genus Tipuana (Bentham) Bentham, Tipuana was first published as a section of Machaerium (Bentham, in Jour. Bot. Kew Misc. 5: 267. 1853) and it included M. heteropterum Freire Allem#io, "M. grandiflorum (Benth. in Hook. Journ. Bot. vol. ii. p. 67), and M. TipuXa hitherto undescribed species found by Tweedie in the Parana." The asterisk refers to a Latin description of "Mach- aerium (Tipuana) Tipu" and a paragraph in English, "A large free- flowering handsome tree, known in the Parana by the name of Tipi of Peru, and giving its name to the valley of Tipuana, where the best gold in the Parana is found. Tweedie." The appropriate lectotype of Machaerium section Tipuana would seem to be M. tipu. In the Latin description of M. tipu the inflorescence and the ven- ation of the legumes are compared to those of "M. grandiflori” and the "Corollae majores, fere Platypodii, flavi." The reference to M. grandiflorum possibly was a lapsus calami, or mentis, with Platy- podium grandiflorum Bentham in mind, On the page cited by Bentham, in Hook. Jour. Bot. 2: 67. 1840, there is the original description of Machaerium macrocarpum Bentham, later transferred to Tipuana (Jour. Linn. Soc. 4, suppl.: 72. 1860), and erroneously cited as "Machaerium mucronatum" in Martius, Fl. Bras. 15(1): 259. 1862. Bentham raised Tipuana to generic status in 1860 with the three species, T. macrocarpa, T. heteroptera, and T. speciosa, the latter an illegitimate name based on Machaerium tipu. In 1898 Otto Kuntze made the correct combination, Tipuana tipu (Bentham) 0. Kuntze, and that species, I believe, automatically became the lectotype of the genus Tipuana, rather than T. speciosa Bentham (Ducke, in Arch. Jard. Bot. Rio de Janeiro 5: 137. 1930) or T. macrocarpum (Bentham) Benth- am as cited by Burkart (Las Leguminosas Argentinas, ed. 1. 544. 1943) and followed by the Index Nomina Genericorum. More recently, Burkart correctly cited T. tipu as the sole species of Tipuana and, indirect- ly, T. macrocarpa as Vatairea macrocarpa. 475 476 PHYTOLOGIA Vol, 28, no. 5 A few additional species were assigned to Tipuana before split- ting of the genus was begun; Vatairea was resurrected; Luetzelburg- ia was described as new; other leguminous genera with superficially similar, terminally winged, samaroid fruit, such as Ferreirea, Mach- aerium, Nissolia, Paramachaerium, and Vataireopsis, have added to confusion in identification, a fact that is reflected in the synon- ymy of the taxa and the physical location of pertinent specimens in most herbaria. Tipuana finally stands as a monotypic genus, as indi- cated by Ducke in 1930(Arch. Jard. Bot. Rio de Janeiro 5: 135). Having had to unravel this tangled nomenclature, it may be useful to present a list of the species published under Tipuana and to in- dicate their disposition. The species are given in alphabetical or- der, the synonymy chronological, and, what I currently believe to be the correct name is emphasized with capital letters. TIPUANA (Bentham) Bentham, Jour.

Bot. 13(13):23. 1914. Bulbothrix is easily recognized by the black marginal bulbate cilia. Some of the South American species, as B. sehiffneri and B. semtlunata, are extremely small with lobes no more than 0.5 mm wide. A few Asian species, on the other hand, as B. metzospora and B. setschwanensis, have rather broad (to 5 mm wide), almost subirregular lobes. The upper cortex is typically composed of Palisade plectenchyma with a pored epicortex (Hale, 1973). All species contain only atranorin in the cortex and are whitish to brownish mineral gray. The species are about equally divided between the Old World and the New World, occurring predominantly on trees in lowland rain forest and in scrub or secondary forests at lower elevations in subtropical to temperate regions. *This work was supported by a grant from the Smithsonian Research Foundation. 479 480 Plt ) Oeogel w Vol. 28, no. 5 Bulbothrix is obviously related to the genus Relicina, which has similar bulbate cilia.

This generic segregate of Parmelta is characterized by mar- ginal cilia, usually well developed but sometimes confined mostly to the sinuses of lobes. Only two species, P. enormis and P. expallida, have a uniformly pale brown rather than black lower surface. The upper cortex has palisade plectenchyma and a pored epicortex (Hale, 1973). Only one species produces the cortical pigment usnic acid (P. nylandert). 482 PHYTOLOGIA Vol. 28, no. 5 The 41 species recognized in Parmelina were formerly classi- fied in Parmelia subgenus Parmelia section Imbrtcaria (Schreb.) Fr. (Hale & Kurokawa, 1964). The generic name Imbricaria, which was used by a number of lichenologists in the 19th century, is a later homonym of Imbritcarta Jussieu (phanerogams). In addition to the type, the following 40 species are recog- nized in the genus. Parmelina antillensis (Nyl.) Hale, comb. nov. Basionym: Parmelia antillensis Nyl. Bull. Soc. Linn.

Type species: Reltetna ewnorpha (Hepp) Hale, comb. nov. Basionym: Parmelta ewmorpha Hepp in Zollinger, Pl. Jungh. 9. 1854. (The designated type of series Relicinae is Parmelta relicina Fr., which would be invalid in the genus Reltcitna as a tautonym.) The characteristic features of this generic segregate of Par- melta are the marginal bulbate cilia and presence of usnic acid in the cortex. All species have rather small, adnate to closely ad- nate thalli and are predominantly corticolous in the lowland to mid elevation tropical rain forest, particularly in Southeast Asia. The upper cortex has palisade plectenchyma and a pored epicortex (Hale, 1973). The apothecia are adnate, small, and frequently coronate with small black bulbils. The lower surface may be black or pale brown and the rhizines simple to densely branched. There are 22 species, including the type, presently recognized in the genus, as follows: Relicina abstrusa (Vainio) Hale, comb. nov. Basionym: Parmelta abstrusa Vainio, Acta Soc. Faun. Fl.

XANTHOPARMELIA (Vainio) Hale, stat. & comb. nov. Basionym: Farmelia section Xanthoparmelta Vainio, Acta Soc. Faun. Fl. Fenn. 7(7):60. 1890. Type species: Xanthoparmelia conspersa (Ach.) Hale, comb. nov. Basionym: Lichen conspersus Ach. Prod. Lich. Suec. 118. 1798. Xanthoparmelia was first proposed by Vainio as a section under Parmelta to accomodate all narrow-lobed yellow species. We know now that the yellow or yellow-green color is caused by the cortical pigment usnic acid, but by using this criterion alone Vainio included several diverse elements, not only typical saxi- colous species with simple rhizines, such as X. conspersa, but also Parmelia flavida and P. velloztae both of which have dichot- omously branched rhizines, and P. abstrusa (=Relicina abstrusa (Vainio) Hale), which has bulbate cilia. Recent workers have put more reliance on cilia and rhizine characters (cf. Hale & Kurokawa, 1964), including in Xanthoparmelia only those saxicolous species with simple rhizines, no cilia, and usnic acid in the cortex. The upper cortex has palisade plectenchyma and a pored epicortex (Hale, 1973). This combination of characters seems to me to form a reasonable basis for segregating Xanthoparmelia from the col- lective genus Parmeltia. The following list contains the 93 species (in addition to the type) presently classified in Parmelia subgenus Xanthoparmelia. 1486 PHYTOLOGIA Vol. 28, no. 5 Xanthoparmelia adhaerens (Nyl.)

Robinson Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560 The preparation of a floristic treatment of the Eupatorieae of Panama has resulted in recognition of an endemic and previously undescribed species of Ageratun. The species is notable for its completely glabrous involucre and rather cordate lower leaves. The species has the leaf, achene and involucral struct- ures of the section Coelestina but has coarser and more pilose stems as in many members of the section Ageratum, The new species is named for Royce L.

Y. 1001). 1965. $3.50 each volume paperbound, This is an unabridged replication of the work first published {and now so rare and cherished] by the Delaware Valley Ornitho- logiesal Club in 1937 to which has been added a new Introduction {a valuable contribution in its own right] especially for this edition by Roger Tory Peterson; a List of Additional Species Re- corded in Cape May County....by Ernest A. Choate; a biographical note on Witmer Stone by James A. G. Rehn, all adding appreciably to the value of this now readily and reasonably available gem of description of the bird life and living as it was and some still remains to be observed in this interesting, well described and well photographed part of our world, "FUNDAMENTALS OF PLANT PATHOLOGY" by Daniel A. Roberts & Carl W, Boothroyd, xii & 402 pp., illus., W. H. Freeman & Company Reading, England RG1 3AA & San Francisco, California 9104. 1972. $15.00. Planned for a survey course for undergraduate students, the opening paragraph sets the orientation with "Every crop plant is in jeopardy [but so is every other form of life!] from the moment its seed is sown: if it is to yield full measure, a plant mst endure the buffeting of the elements, competition from weeds, plagues of insects, and the ravages of disease. Plant diseases alone exacted an annual toll of some $3 billion in the United States during the mid-twentieth century — this despite disease- control efforts based on science and technology that are consid- ered to be highly advanced." The terminology mainly follows Whetzel and the disease classi- fication follows McNew. Part I is devoted to theoretical con- siderations of plant disease as "contimuous dysfunction" and Part II to the practical specifics of impaired physiology affecting photosynthesis, translocation and conduction, absorption and ac- cumulation, meristematic activity, etc. The illustrations and diagrams are helpful, as are the glos- sary, bibliography and indexing. Because of its orientation, this is definitely one of the better phytopathology texts. 503 50h PHYTOLOGIA Vol. 28, no. 5 "CONTINENTS ADRIFT: Readings from SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN" edited by J. Tuzo Wilson, iv & 172 pp., illus., W. H. Freeman & Can- pany, Reading, England RG] 3AA & San Francisco, California 9)10h,. 1972. $7.00 clothbound, $3.50 paperbound. Like the other excellent topical collections of separately re- published SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN papers, this one is well chosen and effectively integrated with preface, introductions to each of the three sections, conclusions, biographical notes, biblio- graphy, cross references, and index. The historically earliest five papers are grouped as section I, "Mobility in the earth". The next five papers starting with the editor's own on continental drift are grouped as Section ITI, "Continental drift, sea-floor spreading and plate tectonics". The last five papers are grouped as Section III, "Some consequen— ces and examples of continental drift", such as Pangaea fragmen- tation, biological evolution, mountain and continent formation generally, and the afar Triangle and the San Andreas Fault specif- ically. "Today many earth scientists believe that, within the past decade, a scientific revolution has occurred in their own sub- ject" holding "out the promise of great practical advances for the future." The many impressive illustrations add so much to the under- standing of these new ideas important to so many fields of sci- ence and technology. "MANUAL OF THE TREES OF NORTH AMERICA" by Charles Sprague Sargent, xxvi & xxiv & 934 pp., illus., Facsimile Replication in Volumes I & II by Dover Publications, New York, N. Y. 1001). 1965. $3.00 each volume paperbound. It certainly is good to have this excellent work readily available again and in inexpensive form. The back of the title page states that this edition first published in 1961 "is an unabridged and unaltered republication of the 2nd (1922) edition" of the original, but the back cover mentions the source as the 2nd enlarged 1926 edition with a new appendix by E. S. Harrar giving modern (1965) nomenclature. This minor bibliographic quandary will prove of little impor- tance to most of the current and future users of this reprinting — foresters, arborists, naturalists, etc. The Harrar appendix basically adds considerable value to Sar- gent's original work which is almost seven decades old now, but among its faults is the failure to modernize the spelling of the generic name of Citharexylum and the specific name of Avicennia erminans. The many original line drawings are still clear, definitive and therefore definitely helpful. 1974 Moldenke, Book reviews 505 "ELECTRON MICROSCOPY OF ENZYMES: Principles and Methods" Volume 2 edited by M. A. Hayat, xvi & 158 pp., illus., Van Nostrand Reinhold Company, Cincinnati, Toronto, London, Melbourne, & New York, N. Y. 10001. 197). $16.50. Any Volume 2 that follows a valuable and needed Volume 1 starts with a deserved advantage, as in this case. The book completely evaluates in its seven papers E-M. prepara- tions, methods, limitations, prospects and interpretations for hemoproteins, acyltransferases, polyphenoloxidases in some plants, tyrosinase, sulfatases, adenylate cyclase and lipase. Some of this original source material is scattered far and wide in assor- ted journals. This is the only comprehensive treatment. Volumes 3 and , now in the preparation stages, will be at such deserved advantage because of the useful contributions made by Volumes 1 and 2 to many different kinds of students, techni cians, and scientists. "BASIC ELECTRON MICROSCOPY TECHNIQUES" by M. A. Hayat, xii & 119 pp., illus., Van Nostrand Reinhold Company, Cincinnati, To- ronto, London, Melbourne, & New York, N. Y. 10001. 1972. $9.95. This small book gives the best coverage to date of the tested and most commonly used procedures clearly in stepwise presenta- tions for fixatives, embedding media, stains, etc. It makes an excellent and efficient "text for beginning technique courses as well as a guide to the worker who has not had a technique course or who faces the problem of preparing the specimens after a long absence from the laboratory...... [and] useful to busy research workers who cannot afford to spend time searching for procedures in the literature." This is true also of more detailed subse- quent works in this field by the same author. The detailed table of contents sufficiently covers the omission of an index. Final chapters give details of paraformaldehyde and molar solutions, solution chemicals with their formlas and molec- ular weights, supply sources, and annotated bibliography. Outlined directions are recorded for (1) fixation by immersion for a great variety of cells, their groups, their chromosames and other organelles and for (2) fixation by vascular perfusion of vertebrate tissues, Index to authors in Volume Twenty-eight Beetle, A.
