Monarda lindheimeri is reported as new to Arkansas. The overall distribution of the species in Louisiana and Texas and a comparison with a similar species are also discussed. Monarda lindheimeri Engelm. & A. Gray ex A. Gray occurs mainly in east Texas, where Turner et al. (2003) mapped it in 15 counties (Anderson, Brazos, Cass, Fannin, Galveston, Gonzales, Grayson, Grimes, Harris, Harrison, Montgomery, Morris, Walker, Waller, and Upshur). Additional Texas records include Colorado (Brown 7472, SBSC),Hardin (Singhurst 2161, BAYLU), Liberty (Brown 15414, SBSC), Madison (Neill 1732, TAMU) Marion (Holmes 9967 Singhurst, BAYLU), and San Jacinto (Brown 7566, SBSC) counties. The few scattered records from Louisiana include Calcasieu Parish (Correll & Correll 1941), St. Landry Parish (Mc-Clintock & Epling 1942), Acadia and Jefferson Davis parishes (Thomas & Allen 1998), and Rapides Parish (Camp Beauregard, Leonard 1560, US!, determined and annotated by R.
