The Eupatorium collected at 4500 ft on Bate Mt. is
E. purpureum var. apytophllum J.D.H.
In working out the E. purpureum problem it seems
that L'Heritier made his first mistake in not considering
E. trifoliatum one of the verticillata group.
Jussieu's first treatment Sp. Pl. (1753) was based
on the number of flowers in a head
5-fld - E. trifoliatum - Virginis
8-fld - E. purpureum - My?
March 2 (Monday)
Georgia plants from Syracuse, and Lipton,
including Oldenlandia Boseii (not included by
Harper) and a large number of Rynchospiras.
March 3 (Tuesday)
Alabama plants, collected near Tuscaloosa and
along Flint River, including Clematis crispa, Carex
vernucosa, Rudgeria floridulosa. The Juniperus of
the chalk barrows is a peculiar low irregular and wide-
spreeding tree, quite different from that of the cedar
glades. It is probably J. barbatusis and is the same as
much of the material from Texas, named J. monosperma
by Palmer.
March 7 (Saturday)
March 4-5 to Hasked Snelman material except for
N. Cardion.
Cleevisia. Returned material to Taylor at Toronto, also i-
dentification of # Brazilian specimens to Smith.
E. Capitata var. brucely extends south to St. Louis. It
is differentiated from E. Congressa by the depressed as
compared to the convex tubercle. The Autistic material
is E. Capitata. E. Hilei Britton ined. from Louisiana
