Onosmodium

Mackenzie KK. 1905. Onosmodium. Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club. 32(9):495-506

ABSTRACT: The genus Oniosmizodiumiii, founded in I803 by Michaux, is a genus of Boragbuinaceae exclusively confined to North America and very largely to that portion of the United States east of the Rocky Mountains. The species are closely related and their proper identification has given much trouble to collectors, as evidenced by the large number of incorrectly labeled specimens found in herbaria. Many of the characters given in the standard manuals are not conlstant, and are misleading unless used with considerable discrimination; this probably accounts for the great number of errors in herbarium determinations. The following notes are based on an examination of the specimens contained in the herbaria of the Missouri Botanical Garden, the New York Botanical Garden, and Columlbia University, and in the author's private herbarium.
