Présentation de l'éditeur
Botanical Observation and Criticism, byE dward L. Greene. Distribution off Bldens vulsata. Soon after haying published this species I ventured a suggestion that, inasmuch as it is notably less common at the east than B. frondosay it might have come to this side of the continent from theW est (P itt. iv. 260). A recent September tour through parts of I ndiana, I llinois, Wisconsin, and Minnesota gave the opportunity of observing the species in many western localities; and the opinion which I had almost adopted as to its western nativity is not confirmed. I found the plant everywhere, but everywhere much less common than its ally, B, frondosa ;also almost invariably a tenant of cultivated grounds, gardens, cornfields, etc., whereas B. frondosa in the upper Mississippi valley as in that of the Potomac, abounds in wild uncultivated lowlands along streams and miorgins of lakes and ponds, where B. vulgaia is never seen. I everywhere observed of B. frondosa that in its maturest autumnal state the whole herbage is of a bronzy purple; but B, vulgata remains green. LukVLBTS, Vol. I, pp. 1-16, issued 24 Nov.,
