South Carolina: Material from Abbeville County previously classed as P. Carolina is now considered to be P. glaherrima; add also Richland County. Tennessee: Add Blount County. Virginia: A fitting climax to this series of studies consists in the rediscovery of Phlox glaherrima in Virginia, where it had not been found since Clayton's day, an interval of over 200 years. The station is in the western part of Chesterfield County, and was brought to attention in the Spring of 1933. It lies on one of the lines indicating Clayton's travel-routes on the map in Gronovius's Flora Virginica, and exhibits marked variability in flower color, a feature specially mentioned by Clayton. The suggestion previously made that the species was probably found in Gloucester County is therefore to be withdrawn, and this newly recog- nized occurrence is to be regarded as the real type locality of the species, and, indeed, of tho genus Phlox. In Plate 3 there is reproduced a general view of the Phlox as it grows here, and also a near view of one plant, in comparison with the Linnean type of the species, to show their resemblance. The colony is not a large one, and could readily be exterminated by digging of roots, so horticulturists are urged not to disturb it. The soil is strongly acid and sterile, and the plant can not be expected to thrive under cultivation in rich garden loam. Since it has managed to survive all the clearing, burning, and road-making operations of the past two centuries, we should give it a chance to continue to live here indefinitely. P. 19.
