NOTES ON THE FERNS OF MARANOCOOK, MAINE. 
HAvEN METCALF. 
I find upon consulting my notes and herbarium, made during 
some years of residence in Winthrop, Maine, that I can supplement 
Mr. Davenport’s list in RHODORA, i. 218, as follows. All the plants 
named, except where noted, grow within two miles of the Maran- 
ocook station. 
Aspidium fragrans Swartz. Scarce; along a brook on the east 
shore opposite Craig’s Point. Also on the northern slope of Mt. 
Pisgah, five miles southwest of Maranocook. 
Aspidium Goldianum Hook. Fairly common in woods on north 
and east shore of the lake. 
Asplenium ebeneum Ait. In one locality, near Kent’s Hill.

shores of Lake Anabescook. 
Asplenium Trichomanes L. Along the steep banks of a gully, 
toward Kent’s Hill. 
Camptosorus rhizophyllus Link. In one locality only, growing 
over a ledge, near Kent's Hill. When I last visited the place, in

Cystopteris fragilis Bernh. Common in upland woods throughout 
the region. 
Polypodium vulgare L. Common; hills west of the lake. 
Woodsia ilvensis R. Brown. Fairly common along high land east 
of lake, about ledges. 
~ Woodsia obtusa Torr. Several localities about Mt. Pisgah. 
Woodwardia virginica Smith. Abundant in the swamp along the 
Readfield shore, also in the swamps east of Mt. Pisgah. 
Twelve years ago Adiantum pedatum was very common all about 
this region; but the plant has been so much sought after by summer 
visitors that it is practically extinct in all accessible localities. It is
