130 Rhodora [June 



Lech c a minor, L. Vernon, Vermont ; in a pastured mowing about 

 a mile northeast of South Vernon Station. First time reported north 

 of Hingham, Massachusetts. 



Xemihoxylum Americanum, Mill. Prickly Ash. One station where 

 it is native. As it is known to our " Root and herb doctors " it must 

 be found occasionally. 



Ceanothus Arncricanus, L. New Jersey Tea. Frequent on dry, 

 sterile terrace banks of the Connecticut River. I have never seen 

 it in any other place. It is reported northward to Olcott Falls. 



Vitis bitv/or, LeConte. Summer Grape. Occasionally found at 

 the foot of cliffs from Fall Mountain opposite Bellows Falls to Ver- 

 non. Evidently near its northern limit. 



Vitis Labrusca, L. Fox Grape. This species is native around the 

 lily-pond in Vernon, and may be so on the railroad as far north as 

 Central Park Station. It occurs in other places also, but as an 

 escape from cultivation. 



Acer sacchari/ium, L. (.•/. Jasycarpum, Ehrh.). River or Silver 

 Maple. This is abundant where its roots can reach the water of the 

 Connecticut River, but it is rarely seen elsewhere. 



Acer NegtinJo, L. Box Elder. This has become naturalized on 

 the banks of the Connecticut River. It is abundant on the New 

 Hampshire side just below the fall at Bellows Falls in " Dr. Goodell's 

 Orchard " and is occasionally found in Westminster and below. 



Staphylea trifolia, L. Bladder-nut. Abundant in spots on the 

 bank of the Connecticut River. There are at least two stations in 

 Westminster. 



Rhus copallina, L. Margined Sumach. This Dwarf sumach is 

 abundant in places for a mile from the Connecticut River. Prof. 

 Jesup records it as rare in his region, which reaches nearly down to 

 Bellows Falls. 



Rhus glabra, L. Smooth Sumach. Frequent in the range of the 

 Margined Sumach. 



Rhus venenata, L. Poison Sumach. Abundant in Vernon swamps 

 and less frequent farther north. 



PrunttS pumila, L. Sand Cherry. On the sandy shore of the 

 Connecticut River at Dr. Goodell's orchard and Brattleborough. At 

 Vernon it is found on the dry plain away from the river.

 of the Connecticut River in Westminster. Reported also at Hanover.
