Explanation of the Index
Following the list of genera with their sheet numbers, the species are
arranged alphabetically, preceded by their sheet numbers and number of speci-
mens, and followed by the genus under which they are filed. Underlined species
names include specimens which are judged, merely by the labels, to be in the
category of "types." Starred names include authentically named specimens,
almost always from the herbarium of the author. Quotation marks are used for
names which have apparently remained unpublished. This index is not intended
to give nomenclatural status to any of these indications.
