514 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY BOTANY, VOL. XIX are by no means the filiform-segmented organs of Dysosmia. The corona is definitely 3-ranked, and the operculum is filamentose, at least part way. In Dysosmia the corona is about 5-ranked, and the operculum is merely denticulate. Passiflora villosa is a striking plant, with an indument denser than in any of the forms of P. foetida. Masters describes the ovary as being strongly villous, but in all the specimens I have seen it is glabrous. With one exception, the specimens cited above show little variation; in Ule 2570 the indument is much scantier, the leaves smaller, and both the bracts and the leaves less noticeably toothed. 303. Passiflora Vellozii Gardn. Lond. Journ. Bot. 4: 103. 1845, excluding synonym. Cieca Vellozii M. Roemer, Fam. Nat. Syn. 2: 142. 1846. Stem subterete, sulcate, green or occasionally dark purple, densely pilose with long, yellowish hairs; stipules semi-ovate, 3 to 6 mm. long, 1.5 to 3 mm. wide, lacerate-dentate, the teeth aristate; petioles 0.5 to 2.5 cm. long, pilose, often some of the hairs thicker than the others and gland-tipped; leaves 3 to 9 cm. long and wide, 3-lobed (lobes broadly ovate-lanceolate, acute or obtusish, apiculate, the middle lobe 2 or 3 times larger than the lateral lobes), shallowly cordate at base, 3-5-nerved, ciliate at margin with soft, yellowish hairs, minutely denticulate toward base (teeth often gland-tipped), membranous, appressed-pilose on both faces; peduncles 0.5 to 2 cm. long, slender; bracts lanceolate or oblong-lanceolate, 0.7 to 1.5 cm. long, 0.3 to 1 cm. wide, lacerate-dentate or pinnatifid, membranous, pilose, ciliate; flowers up to 5 cm. wide; sepals oblong, about 2 cm. long and 6 mm. wide, obtuse, pilose without, dorsally awned just below apex, the awn ciliate; petals linear, about 1.5 cm. long, 0.3 cm. wide, obtuse, thin-membranous; corona filaments in 3 series, those of the 2 outer series narrowly liguliform, about 2 cm. long, with the inner clavatefiliform, 4 mm. long; operculum 5 mm. high, erect, upper half filamentose; limen membranous, surrounding base of gynophore, 3 mm. high, minutely denticulate; ovary ovoid, hirsute; fruit ovoid, about 4 cm. long, 2.5 cm. wide, sparingly hirsute; seeds cuneate, about 4 mm. long, 2 mm. wide, reticulate. TYPE LOCALITY: Organ Mountains, Brazil. DISTRIBUTION: Known only from the states of Minas Geraes and Rio de Janeiro, eastern Brazil. BRAZIL: Minas Geraes: St. Hilaire 2239 (P). Itabira, Weddell 1333 (P). Rio de Janeiro: Organ Mountains, 900 meters, Gardner
AMERICAN PASSIFLORACEAE 515 427 (BM, type, K); Bailey & Bailey 1257 (N); Miers 4457 (K). Cantagallo, Peckolt 209 (V). Gardner described P. Vellozii as being without petals. Although I have made no dissection of the flowers of the type specimen, Bailey 1257, which corresponds excellently with it in other details, has petals present. The petals are of a very thin texture, and in bud stage, when closely appressed to the sepals, they may well have been overlooked. Passi flora Vellozii clearly is related to P. villosa, differing in the shape of the leaves and bracts, and in having a less dense indument. The description of the fruit is drawn from a specimen in the Stockholm herbarium, without data, which undoubtedly belongs to this species. Gardner cites Velloso's plate 86 as this, but it surely is not the same as Gardner 427, the original of the description of P. Vellozii Gardn. As already noted, Velloso's plate 86 represents P. foetida var. fluminensis. 304. Passiflora setulosa <strong>Killip</strong>, sp. nov. Caulis hirtellus; stipulae semi-oblongae, lacerato-dentatae; petioli 2-4-glandulosi; folia profunde trilobata, lobis angustis, serrulata, cordulata, setulosa; bracteae lanceolatae, lacerato-dentatae, ad marginem dense setulosae; coronae filamenta triseriata; operculum breviter filamentosum; ovarium glabrum. Stem slender, wiry, hirtellous; stipules semi-oblong, 5 to 7 mm. long, 1.5 to 3 mm. wide, lacerate-dentate, glabrous; petioles about 1 cm. long, setulose, bearing 2 to 4 stipitate glands above middle; leaves 3-lobed five-sixths their length (lobes narrowly lanceolate or narrowly oblong-lanceolate, acuminate, 1 to 1.5 cm. wide, the middle lobe 4 to 6 cm. long, the lateral lobes 3.5 to 4 cm. long), cordulate, irregularly serrulate, 5-nerved (nerves yellowish), light green above, slightly paler beneath, sparingly setulose above with white hairs, setulose on the nerves beneath; peduncles about 1 cm. long (undeveloped); bracts lanceolate, 1 to 1.5 cm. long, 0.5 to 1 cm. wide, acuminate, lacerate-dentate, densely setulose at margin, otherwise essentially glabrous; calyx tube campanulate; sepals oblong-lanceolate, obtuse, dorsally minutely awned; petals linear-lanceolate; corona filaments in 3 series, those of the 2 outer series about as long as the petals, with the inner ones much shorter; operculum shortfilamentose; ovary glabrous. Type in the Naturhistoriska Riksmuseet, Stockholm, collected at Jaguariahyva, Parana, Brazil, April, 1915, by P. Duse"n (No. 16964}-
