The synonymy for Dodonaea viscosa proper is exceptionally large
and must be omitted here for the most part. It was treated in great
detail by Radlkofer in Martius' Flora Brasiliensis (13, pt. 3: 639-645.
1900). The combination D. viscosa begins with Jacquin (loc. cit.).
Jacquin gave no detailed description, but cited the Sloane plate
162, /. 3 (above listed). If we stop with the Sloane figure, as those
who cite only Jacquin for the authorship of D. viscosa apparently do,
we fix the type of the species proper as a Jamaica plant with leaves
fairly large (and not very numerous), spatulate to broadly oblanceo-
late, apically obtuse to rounded, and very distinctly veined.
However, there is every reason to believe that Jacquin merely
adapted the trivial name viscosa from Ptelea viscosa L. (vide supra).3
This being the case, we may trace the Linnaean concept directly
to Hortus Cliffortianus p. 144. There the first reference given is to
Staphylodendron foliis lauri angustis Plum. Cat. 18. This reference
to Plunder's Catalogue is supported only by the heading to the list
of names among which it stands (in Plunder's Catalogue), and from
this heading we learn that the plant had been described and deline-
ated by Plumier himself in the "Insulis Americanis." His delinea-
tions appeared later in fascicle 10 of his large work on American
plants, edited by Burmann (vide supra), and in figure 2 of plate 247
of that work we come to an illustration that, with better claim than

* A conspectus of the varieties and formae of Dodonaea viscosa treated in this
article will be found beginning on page 308.
3 Indeed, many authors, Bentham among them, have ignored Jacquin alto-
gether and accredited the combination D. viscosa entirely to Linnaeus.

the Sloane sketch, may serve as the type basis for Dodonaea viscosa
in its narrowest sense. The spray shown has only five leaves. These
are less or indeed not at all narrowed toward the base, the two largest
being one narrowly and one moderately oblong. All are somewhat
acute or acutish at the apex. The latter of these two oblong leaves
is identically the broad kind characteristic of the forma repanda
described by Radlkofer (loc. cit.) and based by him upon Dodonaea
repanda Schum. & Thonn. Beskr. Guin. PI. in Danske Vidensk.
Selsk. Afhandl. Ill: 214 (seors. impr. p. 194), no. 1. 1828.1 Radlkofer
described the forma repanda so as to include not only the very form
shown in the Plumier plate but the one shown in Sloane 's. Moreover,
he cited these two illustrations for f . repanda but somewhat guardedly
with the abbreviation "cf." In nature, the two vary so much that,
rather than employ a lesser rank of subforma for each, we might well
leave them together as constituting a highly variable forma, namely,
f. repanda.
Several varieties have been proposed for D. viscosa, but appar-
ently the first one described intentionally as representing the typical
form of the species was var. vulgaris Benth. Fl. Austral. 1: 476. 1863.
Bentham made an exhaustive study of the forty or more species
of Dodonaea known in his day and found that most of the extra-
Australian forms were referable to his D. viscosa var. vulgaris or to
one or the other of two other varieties that he established for D.
viscosa, viz., vars. angustifolia and spatulata.2 He excepted "perhaps,
the D. eriocarpa from the Sandwich Islands, D. Thunbergiana, Eckl.
and Zeyh., from S. Africa, and one or two Mexican ones, which,
whether varieties or species, do not occur in Australia." Bentham
remarked upon the "almost protean forms the species assumes in
Australia" and added that they "are very difficult to distribute into
definite varieties."
In 1900 appeared the exceptionally able and brilliant treatment
of D. viscosa by Radlkofer, already cited. Radlkofer (p. 646) accepted
Bentham's three varieties, but listed only vars. vulgaris and angusti-
folia for Brazil, with the flora of which he at that time was concerned
exclusively. He subdivided var. vulgaris into three formae for Brazil,
1 This leaf is shown somewhat apart from the other four and arises from a
main branch on a side shoot of which the other four are borne. The artist super-
imposed a large fruiting cluster above much of it and thus possibly some earlier
workers have overlooked or ignored it. Fortunately, however, fully enough of its
median and lower blade is shown to make identification certain.
2 Bentham's spelling was spathulata, but the original spelling by Sir James E.
Smith, from whom he derived the name, was spatulata.
FURTHER STUDIES IN THE GENUS DODONAEA L. 271
viz., repanda (Schum. & Thonn.) Radlk., Schiedeana (Schlecht.)
Radlk., and Burmanniana (Schum. & Thonn.) Radlk. Var. angusti-
folia he left intact.
Like Bentham, he had been impressed with the extreme poly-
morphism in D. viscosa. Thus he wrote: "Miro modo ludit forma et
magnitudine foliorum fructuumque. Varietates 3 cum cl. Bentham
(in Fl. Australiensi) discernere par est, a vulgarem, ft angustifoliam,
y spathulatam, quae f ormas varias alias in alias transeuntes includunt.
E Brasilia non nisi var. a et /3 et formae sequentes [repanda, Schiede-
ana, et Burmanniana] innotuerunt." Radlkofer's nomenclature,
based as it was on rules since altered by international congresses,
has been found to need revision. The required changes have recently
been published (Amer. Journ. Bot. 32: 214. 1945) and the detailed
explanations pertaining thereto are given in the present paper.
Radlkofer's general understanding of the plant entities themselves,
however, is seen to have been so trustworthy that we may well com-
mence here an interpretation of D. viscosa with an abridged transla-
tion of his description and conspectus of D. viscosa vars. vulgaris,
including its component formae, and angustifolia. Of necessity,
these were more or less arbitrary. He described D. viscosa collec-
tively as: Slender trees 3-5 meters tall or branched shrubs 1-3 meters
tall. Branches erect, the floriferous ones 2-3 mm. thick, bark brown
or dark. Leaves (petiole 0.2-1 cm. long included) now up to 12 cm.
long, 4 cm. wide (f. repanda), now up to 15 cm. long, only 2 cm. wide
(f. Schiedeana), now 7-10 cm. long, 1.5-2 cm. wide (L Burmanniana),
now 7-9 cm. long, 0.5-1 cm. wide (var. angustifolia). Thyrses sub-
equal to half the foliar length, longer in fruit; pedicels at anthesis
0.5-0.8 cm. or in fruit 1-1.5 cm. long. Flowers 3 mm. long, whitish-
green. Sepals 3 mm. long, 1.5 mm. wide, 3-nerved, puberulous
especially at margin and apex. Stamineal filaments scarcely 1 mm.
long, anthers 2.5 mm. long. Capsule now larger, suborbicular (its
wings subequal to the locules in width included), 2.2 cm. long, 2.5
cm. wide; now mediocre, obcordate, 1.5 cm. long and 1.8 cm. wide;
now small, about 1 cm. in diameter, sanguineous when fresh, in dry
state brownish or stramineous. Seeds about 2.5 mm. across.
Of considerable additional aid to the student of D. viscosa are
the short, summarizing descriptions that Radlkofer gave (op. cit.
646). These are repeated essentially as he presented them:

Some years ago, I was invited by Mr. Otto Degener, well-known
authority on the Hawaiian Island flora, to determine the numerous
collections of Dodonaea that he had made in the Hawaiian Islands.
I accepted the task but I soon found that it necessitated a compara-
tive study of a vast amount of material from other regions of the
earth. Several American and European herbaria cooperated by
lending all or part of their Dodonaea material, and assistance and
encouragement were given from time to time by their custodians,
especially by Dr. Albert C. Smith, Curator of the Herbarium of
Arnold Arboretum. It is a pleasure to acknowledge here my indebt-
edness to these institutions and botanists.
As the specimens of Dodonaea viscosa in herbaria have been
observed to have been only too often misdetermined, or else undeter-
mined to the proper variety or forma, I have had occasion to label
many hundreds in accordance with the nomenclatural results of the
present study. Many of these are cited later in this paper, but some
of those determined for Radlkofer's three formae of var. vulgaris
Benth. are listed here for the aid they may afford to other workers:1

1 Radlkofer (op. cit. 646) cites also the State of Maranhao, Brazil, for f .
repanda, although no authentic specimen of f. repanda from that state has been
available to me.
It may be noted here that f. repanda is the f. typica of certain later writers
(e.g., Robinson, Fl. Galapagos Isls., Proc. Amer. Acad. 38: 171. 1902; Herter,
Rev. Sudam. Bot. 5: 35. 1937). We may note, too, that Otto Kuntze published
(Rev. Gen. PI. 1: 143. 1891), prior to Radlkofer's establishment of the forma
repanda, the names viridula ("1. viridula O. Ktze. Flos viridulus antheris albis.
Java, in Strandnahe") and lilacina ("2. lilacina O. Ktze. Flores apice lilacini.
Silla de Caracas") for specimens of D. viscosa var. vulgaris. However, Kuntze
used these names loosely, omitting formal assignment of definite rank, so that they
remain of uncertain status and cannot invalidate the name repanda for the rank
of a forma.

In its strong tendency toward pubescence in the inflorescences
and on the leaf -edges, this forma suggests var. linearis f . arizonica,
to which it is indeed close. The leaves are mostly broader than in
that forma, however, and when fairly large, as on the type, suggest
small-leaved f . Burmanniana material. Some specimens have shorter
leaves, these more spatulate and apically less acuminate to obtuse.
Orcutt 3297, Nelson & Goldman 7154, and Johnston 3849 are such
specimens.1 Forma eriocarpoidea offers at times a resemblance to
Dodonaea eriocarpa Smith and some of the many varieties, mostly
Hawaiian, of that species. Its geographic range, as far as known,
extends from the northern border of the State of Oaxaca northward
along the eastern part of Mexico, but must include the somewhat
remote localities farther west, cited for Baja California. In this
latter region occur additional specimens that appear to constitute a
new forma referable to a place next to f. Ehrenbergii under var.
arborescens (and described below as f. hispidula).

Dodonaea viscosa has, in addition to the var. vulgaris f. eriocar-
poidea just described, three more or less easily recognizable formae
with proportionately narrower or more elongate leaves than is
usually the case in such varieties as var. vulgaris and var. arborescens.
These forms have been referred rather commonly to var. angustifolia
Benth., mentioned above as having been retained by Radlkofer for
certain Brazilian material. However, Bentham's epithet, published
in 1863, was antedated for varietal status by var. linearis Harv. &
Sond., published at least three years earlier.
Typical var. linearis, which may be designated (in the sense of a
forma) as f . linearis, is found in South Africa, the West Indies (islands
of Cuba and Haiti), northwestern Mexico, etc. It has linear leaves,
these short (±5 cm.) or long (±7-11 cm.). Its inflorescence has the
branchlets glabrous to sparsely setulose; otherwise it might be mis-
taken in many cases for f. arizonica (vide infra).
1 It must be pointed out that the assignment of f . eriocarpoidea to var. vulgaris
is arbitrary. It might with almost equal reason be made to var. linearis or to var.
arborescens.

Dodonaea viscosa var. /3 linearis f. 2. angustifolia (Benth.)
Sherff, Amer. Journ. Bot. 32: 214. 1945. Dodonaea angustifolia L. /.
Supplem. PI. Syst. Veg. 218. 1781. Dodonaea angustifolia Swartz,
Observ. Bot. 150. 1791. Dodonaea viscosa var. angustifolia Benth.
Fl. Austral. 1:476. 1863.
Dodonaea viscosa var. angustifolia Benth. was founded upon D.
angustifolia Swartz (Observ. Bot. 150. 1791), a plant inhabiting
"montes frigidiores Jamaicae" (fide Swartzii). But the younger
Linnaeus had already described (loc. cit.} a Dodonaea angustifolia
from southern India. With both Linnaeus (/.) and Swartz, the
leaves were "lanceolato-linearia." The two concepts were undoubt-
edly identical and have been so regarded by numerous authors.
However, Swartz's name was of course a homonym and, under the
International Rules (edit. 3, art. 61. 1935), was illegitimate.1 For
this or comparable reasons, some American authors have rejected
the epithet angustifolia, no matter for what status it was used by
writers subsequent to Swartz. It must be observed here, however,
1 A homonym may be "generally treated as a synonym on taxonomic grounds"
(Internat. Rules loc. cit.) and still be a homonym. The essential requirement of a
homonym is that it duplicates a name previously and validly published for a group
of the same rank based "on a different type."
288 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY— BOTANY, VOL. 23
that under the same International Rules (art. 69, examples, sub
Talino polyandro Hook.) the illegitimacy of the name angustifolia1
for the concept as held by Swartz does not invalidate its use by
Bentham and subsequent workers for a varietal status. The com-
bination Dodonaea viscosa var. angustifolia Benth., even though
Bentham cited Swartz's specific binomial, "is treated, not as a new
combination, but as a new name." No parenthetical citation of
"Swartz" is called for, therefore, before "Benth."
Radlkofer, in his classical study of Dodonaea, retained the var.
angustifolia Benth. under D. viscosa and redescribed its leaves as
"lineari-lanceolata vel sublinearia" to include a wider range of
specimens. He made no attempt to describe subordinate formae.2
If we return to the concept as held by Bentham, however, we see
that it evidently related to broader-leaved material than f. linearis
and was intended to include the plants with leaves varying from linear-
lanceolate to linear-oblanceolate. It is represented by Dodonaea
jamaicensis DC. as interpreted in Britton, Fl. Bermuda 225 and
illustr. 1918. The forma angustifolia is by far the most widely
distributed and abundant forma of var. linearis. At times it
approaches var. vulgaris f. Burmanniana and var. arborescens f.
spatulata.
Specimens examined for f. 2. angustifolia:
Florida: Charles Henry Baker 5476, alt. ±15 feet, Volusia County,
November 20, 1918 (Gray); A. H. Curtiss 485 p. p., sand ridges be-
tween the ocean and Indian River, September (Chi.; Gray; N.Y.,
2 sheets) ; Francis Duckett 236, in tropical pineland, Miami, December
6, 1933 (Calif.; Chi.; N.Y.); A. Fredholm 5603, hammock, Brevard
1 We may note that N. L. Britton, who had a very extensive acquaintance with
Dodonaea in the field for many of the West Indies islands, rejected the Swartz
epithet on numerous herbarium sheets (in Herb. N.Y.) as "not D. angustifolia L./."
and then in place of D. angustifolia Sw., used the name D. jamaicensis DC. Britton
used also in his publications (e.g., Fl. Bermuda 225. 1918) the name D. jamaicensis
DC. He was undoubtedly actuated by at least two considerations: (1) Because
Linnaeus/, and Swartz were concerned with plants from opposite sides of the earth,
it might be presumed that the plants were taxonomically different; (2) Britton,
in later life, was averse to recognizing nomenclaturally any entities lower than
species (I rely here not only upon his published works but upon several conversa-
tions that I had with him, especially in the summer of 1913, when he was bringing
to a close the revisional work incident to the second edition of Britton and Brown's
Illustrated Flora [Illustr. Fl. N. U.S. etc., 3 vols. 1913]). Judging the common
angustifolia form as seen in the West Indies to be distinguishable from D. viscosa
in the latter's narrower sense, he wished to retain it in his botanical works. He
therefore construed it as a species. He rejected the Swartz homonym and adopted
the later name, D. jamaicensis.
2 There was no occasion to do so, since he was concerned at the time with the
Brazilian flora and since Brazil apparently was not known to produce other than
the typical forma of var. angustifolia.

Sherff, Amer. Journ. Bot. 32: 214. 1945. Dodonaea arizonica A. Nels.
ibid. 21:576. 1934.
This forma differs from the two previous formae in having
definitely pubescent branchlets to the inflorescence. In the first
two formae, the branchlets are glabrous to obscurely or sparsely
setulose.
Occasionally a very few of the hairs on the branches of the in-
florescence are somewhat closer together in pairs, suggesting an
approach to D. eriocarpa of the Hawaiian Islands, the Galapagos
Islands, and the Island of Java, which in many of its varieties has
a more or less stellate pubescence.

Bentham (Fl. Austral. 1: 476. 1863), as already stated, treated
Dodonaea viscosa as having three varieties, namely vulgaris, angusti-
folia (our linearis), and spatulata.1 The third variety, which we
may now notice in detail, had been described years before by Smith
(in Rees et al. Cyclop. 12: sub Dodonaea. 1809) as the species Dodo-
naea spatulata. Bentham wrote: "Usually a more bushy and not so
tall a shrub as the preceding varieties, often very viscid. Leaves
shorter . . . obovate-oblong, oblong-cuneate, spathulate, oblanceo-
late or broadly linear-cuneate, usually obtuse or sometimes truncate,
the lateral veins usually conspicuous. . . . Capsules very variable,
but generally intermediate between those of the var. vulgaris and
angustifolia, but nearer to the former. . . . This is the commonest,
perhaps the only form in Victoria, Tasmania, and S. Australia . . .
and some of the Sandwich Island specimens can be precisely matched
in Australia. ... D. asplenifolia, Rudge, in Trans. Linn. Soc. xi.
297, t. 20 ... is an apparently rare form with linear-cuneate, 3-
toothed leaves "
There seems no question that Bentham's judgment as to D. Asple-
niifolia Rudge (based on a plant from near Port Jackson, at Sydney,
New South Wales) was sound. However, Bentham appears to have
1 As already noted, Smith's original spelling spatulata was altered by Bentham
to spathulata. Since each spelling has good standing in the Latin, I have retained
Smith's on grounds of priority.

overlooked Allan Cunningham's name arborescens, which had been
assigned to varietal status in 1840, and, according to present rules,
must be taken up in place of spatulata. The type of var. arborescens
was Ronald Gunn 377, Tasmania. It had been given the manuscript
name Dodonaea arborescens by Cunningham but was reduced by
W. J. Hooker to a variety of the Australian D. Aspleniifolia and
described as follows: "Var. /3 foliorum apicibus magis dentato-
sinuatis, ramis angustioribus." I have seen several specimens from
eastern Australia and from Tasmania that answer to this leaf-
description. Many or most of their leaves are more or less sinuate-
dentate at the apex and somewhat down the margins. A specimen even
from Florida (Small & Wilson 2035) and apparently one from
Ecuador (Hitchcock 21411) are identical. None of the specimens
examined appear in any way teratological or monstrous. They may,
therefore, be taken as representing a true taxonomic entity, in this
case a variety. This variety in its strictest sense, exemplified by
its type, Gunn 377 from Tasmania, may be designated further as
f. 1. arborescens, foliorum apicibus marginibusque plus minusve
sinuato-dentatis.1

lobes or leaflets often occur irregularly along the leaf-blade, suggestive of the
pinnately compound-leaved species of Dodonaea.

Bentham's description of his third variety, spatulata, evidently
covers a considerable number of slightly varying races or strains with
leaves more or less spatulate, but not or only negligibly dentate or
sinuate. Most of these are best represented by the type (Kew) of
Dodonaea spatulata Smith from the Hawaiian Islands and may be
called more precisely D. viscosa var. arborescens f . 2. spatulata (Smith)

leaved material, see f. Ehrenbergii below.)

Because of the extreme polymorphism present in D. viscosa,
some of its almost innumerable forms frequently look mutually
more unlike than many entities that commonly pass as distinct
species. Mainly for this reason most of them have been segregated
under special names. The name Dodonaea Ehrenbergii was applied
by Schlechtendal to a tree or shrub, specimens of which had been
collected by C. Ehrenberg on the plains of Santo Domingo. A good
specimen of Ehrenberg's original material is in the Herbarium of
the New York Botanical Garden. It is matched in varying degrees
by an extensive assortment of plants from the West Indies and by
some from Florida.
Radlkofer, at various times during his long-continued studies on
Dodonaea, examined various collections from the West Indies. In
his extensive treatment of D. viscosa (in Martius, Fl. Brasil. 13™ :
644. 1900), he reduced D. Ehrenbergii to D. viscosa var. spatulata
(which, as shown above, is reducible to a forma of var. arborescens).
Numerous herbarium specimens more or less typical for D. Ehren-
bergii were labeled by him D. viscosa var. spatulata. Thus, for ex-
ample, as late as June, 1913, he determined a specimen, one quite
typical for D. Ehrenbergii, as D. viscosa var. spatulata. This had
been collected by Britton, Britton, & Cowell, no. 12475, on coastal cliff,
Punta Piedra, Nipe Bay, Prov. of Oriente, Cuba, March 7, 1912
(in Herb. N.Y.).
In 1893, Hitchcock (loc. cit.) had described somewhat broad-
leaved specimens from Cat Island and Inagua (both in the Bahama
Islands), giving them the new name D. viscosa var. obovata. It may
well be doubted, however, that Hitchcock would have erected a new
variety for his plants could he have had access to Radlkofer's ex-
haustive and critical survey, as then unpublished, of Dodonaea
viscosa and various of its forms. In recent years, a wealth of speci-
304 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY— BOTANY, VOL. 23
mens from the general region of the West Indies has been brought
into herbaria, doubtless totaling many more than Radlkofer could
have had for examination. Generally speaking, these may be said
to vary from the usual material of f . spatulata to somewhat the same
extent as the formae Burmanniana and Schiedeana do from the
typical forma (i.e., f. repanda) of var. vulgaris. Some of the speci-
mens have extremely small fruits (±5 mm. wide over-all when
flattened out). Among these are the ones described by Small (loc.
cit.} as Dodonaea microcarya. A great variation occurs, however, in
size of fruits, many specimens having medium-sized to larger ones
(7-15 or more mm. wide over-all, when flattened out). The leaves
are usually shorter and proportionately wider than in var. arborescens
proper (i.e., its f. arborescens) and its f. spatulata, more inclined to
be broadly rounded or truncate to emarginate at apex, and usually
more of a grayish-green (judging from dry material).
It must be noted in all fairness to Radlkofer, that while he had
made a substantially cosmopolitan survey of Dodonaea viscosa in
literature and plant materials, he was concerned, in the work above
cited, almost exclusively with the Brazilian flora. Had he included
the West Indies and Florida as within the scope of his treatment,
he undoubtedly would have enlarged upon his mere notation of
D. viscosa var. spatulata, already cited above (see p. 271) and equi-
valent essentially to var. arborescens of this paper, and listed for
it several formae. At all events, the Dodonaea Ehrenbergii of
Schlechtendal, to extend Radlkofer's treatment today at all consist-
ently, would seem best to rank as a forma under var. arborescens.1
Specimens examined for f. 3. Ehrenbergii:
Florida: Blodgett, southern Florida (N.Y.); John K. Small 4085,
pine lands between Miami and Cocoanut Grove, November 3-
1 It cannot be emphasized too strongly that in certain localities the f . Ehren-
bergii may easily appear widely and specifically different from f. arborescens.
Future authors of floristic works restricted to such localities will perhaps, there-
fore, be tempted so to treat it. Then, too, there will doubtless always be some
botanists who strive for uniformity in assignment of classificatory status to plant
entities regardless of the stability or constancy of these entities, or, more particu-
larly, regardless of their tendency in many parts of their geographic range to form
countless intergradations. To these I would merely repeat Asa Gray's observa-
tion, "Vain is the attempt to draw absolute limits where Nature luxuriates in
gradations." (Proc. Amer. Acad. 5: 126. 1861.)
Finally, we should keep in mind the fact that some few botanists, such as the
late N. L. Britton and the late C. F. Millspaugh in the latter part of their lives,
abandoned varieties as such, reducing them outright to synonymy with their
respective species proper, or reducing them to anonymous "races," or setting them
off as individual species. Obviously, in following the nomenclatural pathway
marked out for the study of Dodonaea viscosa by Radlkofer, I have made no
attempt to conform to the irreconcilable views of such workers.

Here, as in var. linearis f. arizonica and var. vulgaris f. eriocar-
poidea, D. viscosa shows an approach to D. eriocarpa, a species
which in its pubescent varieties displays, however, a certain amount
of stellate pubescence in the ultimate parts of the inflorescence.
The type locality of f. hispidula is famous for endemic forms.
Dodonaea viscosa var. 5 Stokesiana F. Brown, Bishop Mus.
Bull. 130: 164. 1935.
The var. Stokesiana was described by Dr. Forest Brown from a
number of specimens collected in the Austral Islands and on the
Island of Rapa, representing an areal extent limited roughly by
about 20° and 30° S. Lat. and by about 145° and 155° W. Long.
Recently I have examined a specimen of one of the collections cited
by Brown (Mrs. A. M. Stokes 191, in herb. N.Y.) and have been
able to match it closely with several additional specimens not cited
by Brown. These are cited below. It will be observed that they
extend the known geographic range for var. Stokesiana to about
169° E. Long. (Erromango Isl.) and to somewhat less than 17° S.
Lat. (Raiatea Isl.).
It is difficult to separate this variety from D. viscosa and all its
other varieties and forms by any one character, nor indeed did
Brown offer a key by which to differentiate var. Stokesiana. In a
general way, however, the variety tends to differ in its narrower
sepals, its sessile or subsessile leaves, its mostly longer and more
slender styles, and its smaller and commonly somewhat hispidulous
fruits. Brown's description has seemed too scanty. I have there-
fore drawn up an amplified description from the specimens at hand:
Dodonaea viscosa var. Stokesiana F. Brown descript. amplific. —
Folia cuneate oblanceolata, inferne sensim ad basim sessilem vel
subsessilem angustata, apice plus minusve rotundata et abrupte
apiculata, plerumque 7-9 (rarius ±15) cm. longa et 1.5-3 (rarius ±4)
cm. lata. Flores minores, 4 vel 5 sepalis linearibus (interdum anguste)
vel lanceolatis sparsim hispidulis vix nervatis tantum 1-1.5 mm.
longis. Antherae 1.5-2 mm. longae. Stylus debilis, plerumque 5-8
mm. longus, 2- vel 3-partitus, demum saepius persistens. Capsula
2- vel 3-partita -alataque, circ. 6-8 mm. lata, alis angustis (±1 mm.
latis) exclusis, extus minutissime irregulariterque hispidula.
Leaves cuneately oblanceolate, gradually narrowed below to a
sessile or subsessile base, at tip more or less rounded and abruptly
apiculate, commonly 7-9 (more rarely ±15) cm. long and 1.5-3
(more rarely ±4) cm. wide. Flowers smaller; sepals 4 or 5, linear

(at times narrowly so) or lanceolate, sparsely hispidulous, scarcely
nerved, only 1-1.5 mm. long. Anthers 1.5-2 mm. long. Style
delicate, commonly 5-8 mm. long, 2- or 3-parted, in age more often
persistent. Capsule 2- or 3-parted and -winged, about 6-8 mm. wide,
the narrow wings (±1 mm. wide) excluded, at surface irregularly
and very minutely hispidulous.

CONSPECTUS OF VARIETIES AND FORMAE OF Dodonaea viscosa TREATED
IN THIS ARTICLE2
Var. a. vulgaris Benth., p. 270.
f. 1. re-panda (Schum. & Thonn.) Radlk. p. 271. Leaves when typical very
large (up to ±13 cm. long and to ±4 cm. wide), mostly oblong to sub-
obovate, more often obtuse at apex. Commonly (like the next two
formae) glabrous or glabrate. — Florida, Mexico, Central America south-
ward to Bolivia and Brazil, West Indies, tropical East Africa, China,
Malay Archipelago, Australia, Polynesia, etc.
f. 2. Schiedeana (Schlecht.) Radlk. p. 271. Leaves very long (up to ±16 cm.
long and to only ±2 cm. wide), elongately lanceolate, gradually narrowed
to both ends. Comparatively infrequent. — Mexico, Guatemala, British
Honduras, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, West Indies (Isle of Pines), British
East India, and Isls. Timor and Papua.
1 This Tahiti material is that referred to by Asa Gray (Bot. U. S. Explor.
Exped. 260. 1854) as being a form of D, viscosa with "some of the capsules sur-
mounted by a long exserted style, of 3 or 4 lines in length! . . . while other fruits
of the same panicle have the usual short style, not exserted beyond the sinus of
the wing."
2 Besides the four varieties presented here, two more are known, both of
southeastern Polynesia and of highly localized distribution: Var. e minor Sherff
(Amer. Journ. Bot. 32: 212. 1945), known only from the Island of Rapa, and
var. f marquesensis F. Brown (Bish. Mus. Bull. 130: 163. 1935) from the Marquesas
Islands.
FURTHER STUDIES IN THE GENUS DODONAEA L. 309
f. 3. Burmanniana (Schum. & Thonn.) Radlk. p. 271. Leaves of medium
size (7-11 cm. long and 1.5-2 cm. wide), from oblong to narrowly lanceo-
late or cuneate or oblanceolate, terminally acute or somewhat obtuse. —
Widespread in Mexico, Central America, throughout most of South
America, Abyssinia to South Rhodesia, southeastern Asia, Malay Archi-
pelago, Australia, Fiji Isls., etc. Apparently absent (as are the other
formae of D. viscosa except f. spatulata) from Hawaiian Isls. (where it
is often simulated by D. eriocarpa var. Degeneri f. dedpiens Sherff).
f. 4. eriocarpoidea Sherff, p. 284. Leaves often resembling in shape and size
those of f. Burmanniana, f. angustifolia, or even f. spatulata. Inflores-
cences and ultimate branchlets hispidulous. — Known only from Mexico.
Var. /3. linearis (Harv. & Sond.) Sherff.
f. 1. linearis Sherff, p. 285. Leaves linear, now short (±5 cm.) now long
(±7-11 cm.); branches of inflorescences (as also in f. 2. angustifolia)
glabrous to sparsely setulose. — Mexico, Ecuador, Cuba, Haiti, South
Africa, Reunion Isl., Formosa, and Australia.
f. 2. angustifolia (Benth.) Sherff, p. 287. Leaves linear-lanceolate to linear-
oblanceolate, mostly of moderate size. — Florida, Mexico, British Hon-
duras, many parts of South America, southern Asia, Australia, New
Zealand, Philippine Isls., etc.

less sinuate-dentate. This and the next two forms mostly glabrous or
glabrate on foliage and fruits. — Rare in Florida and Ecuador; apparently
frequent in Australia and Tasmania.
f. 2. spatulata (Smith) Sherff, p. 299. Leaves mostly spatulate, entire or but
slightly sinuate-dentate, and of small size (more often 3-6 cm. long and
0.7-1.5 cm. wide). — Of widespread distribution: Florida, Mexico,
Colombia to Uruguay, tropical East Africa, southeastern Asia, Polynesia
(abundant in Hawaiian Isls.), Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand.
f. 3. Ehrenbergii (Schlecht.) Sherff, p. 303. Leaves usually shorter and
proportionately wider, more inclined to be broadly rounded or truncate
to emarginate at apex, and usually (at least when dry) more of a grayish-
green color. Fruits often very small. — Florida and West Indies.

1 As might be expected in a large assortment of exsiccatae representing minor,
subspecific categories, a few collections will be found to have been referred in one
or several herbaria to one entity, in other herbaria to a slightly different one. In
a few cases collectors have merged two collections, apparently of really different
entities, under one number. In certain other cases the specimens may have come
from different parts of the same shrub or tree, thus deceptively identifying one or
several of them with the wrong entity. It may be noted, for instance, that poorly
selected or somewhat fragmented specimens of Dodonaea viscosa var. vulgaris f.
repanda may sometimes lack the large, repandly margined leaves of that forma
and pass mistakenly for the f . Burmanniana. Or, an atypically small-leaved spray
of f . Burmanniana will sometimes pass, in the absence of an ample suite of associate
materials, as var. arborescens f. spatulata; and so on. Whatever the reason, how-
ever, in all such cases the collectors' numbers have been designated here and in
the text proper as "p. p." or "pro parte."
