Together with preceding, south of Whitman, August 4 (No. 1816). A lower, more 
strict, and more leafy form was collected at Thedford, June 14 (No, 1266). Nearly all 
the specimens of the latter lacked the staminate spikes.

C. goodenovii Gay, Ann. Sci. Nat. ser, 2, xi, 191 (1839). 
This reference is made with some doubt. The specimen agrees well with the 
~ description of this species, but the achenes are deciduous, which should place it with 
C. decidua Boott. It also somewhat resembles C, interrupta, but the locality is out of 
the range of both these species. Norway, June 22 (No. 1797).
