MANU AI

OF THE

BOTANY OF JEFFERSON CO.,

BY

A. EH. Youna,

OF HANOVER COLLEGE, IND.

PREPARED FOR THE

SECOND REPORT OF THE |

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF INDIANA.

INDIANAPOLIS:
7 1871.
S. G. R.—16

The following catalogue of plants, collected in Jefferson
county, Indiana, was kindly furnished by A. H. Young,
of Madison.

The list is very complete, and is a valuable contribution
to our knowledge of the botany of the southern part of the
State. The common names and medical properties, when
known, are given in connection with the scientific nomen-
clature, so that a great many of the plants will be readily
recognized by the less scientific students of botany.

INTRODUCTION.

Hawover, Inp., November, 1871.

Pror. Cox:—The list of flowers furnished in this report,
is, we think, but partial, and a thorough canvass of the hills
and valleys, flat lands, marshes and pools, would largely ~
increase it; placing it at least 200 to 300 species in advance
of its present standing. This estimate, though somewhat
large, is not beyond what we think reasonable; for our
researches thus far have been confined to rather a small area,
say one-sixth to one-fifth of the county. "The supposition
that there is in the county a large number of plants not
mentioned in the Catalogue, is founded on the fact, that each
new locality we have visited has disclosed several species
differing from those found in other places not far distant,
and also many plants unknown to us, that had not arrived
at the analyzable period. The supposition is further
strengthened by the great diversity of surface to be found
in this county. From the river bluffs of the Ohio, creviced
in all directions by ravines and gulleys, there rolls back a
comparatively unbroken stretch of flat land—this again is
gradually changed, and the country becomes diversified by
brooks, and creeks, along whose banks flowers flourish in
great abundance.

The Cyperacee (Sedges,) Graminee (Grasses,) Filices
(Ferns,) and Lichens, are all well represented in this county ;
and an interesting field of labor is opened to the Botanist.

in these departments. Especially in the rich moist woods
do the ferns attain a luxuriant growth; some species, we
think, being three to four feet in hight. O* the grasses we
have examined a few, but not carefully enough to notice
them in the report. Want of time and of the requisite
instruments for investigating the properties of most of the
above named classes, has deterred us from entering un their
study. It is to be hoped that some one better able to
prosecute this work, will at no distant day undertake the
labor of presenting to the public a full list of the Flora of
Jefferson county.
I am,
Your obedient servant,

A. H. YOUNG.

6. Kk. cermuam. Var. atrorubens. This is a new species or rather
variety; and having corresponded with Prof. Wood in regard to it, I take
the liberty to report his letter:

West Farms, N. Y., Sept. 25th, 1871.
Mr. Youna—Dear Sir: Your plant is a new variety of T. cernuum,
Linn. I would by no means call it a new species, for it forms a strong
connecting link between two other species, (viz.: T. erectum and T. cer-
nuum,) and makes it highly probable that the two should be united into
one, and this with them. We describe it as follows:

T. cernuum, L. B. atrorubens. Leaves orbicular-rhombie, sessile, with
asmall abrupt point; peduncle declinate half the length of the leaves

\

STATE GEOLOGIST. 287

petals ovate, lanceolate, acuminate, twice broader than the sepals, brown-
ish purple. Plant large, leaves 5 to 6’ diam. Flowers 3’ broad.

Differs from T. erectum in its cernuus peduncle, acuminate petals,
Otherwise very similar to that species.

Respectfully yours, A. Woop.

7.'T. RemarK—We also found another Trillium, the identity of
which we have not been able to make out. _

Derscrirtion.—Leaves sessile, rhombic ovate, abruptly acuminate, and
tapering at base. Peduncle thick, nearly as long as the flower and deflexed
beneath the leaves, Petals ovate, lanceolate, longer than sepals, and more
than twice as broad, dark purple. Sepals lanceolate, bordered slightly with
purple. Styles separate, stigmas strongly reflexed and as long as stamens.
Plant, one to two feet. ,
