ARENARIA MACROPHYLLA IN CONNECTICUT. —Arenaria macrophylla, 
Hook. was found by the writer in full flower on May 22d last, growing 
in the thin soil covering trap stones on the eastern slope of Bluff 
Mountain in North Guilford, Connecticut, about ten miles from the 
coast and at an altitude of four hundred feet. ‘Three weeks later it 
was fruiting freely, the flowers having all disappeared. Only a small 
patch was observed in a little open slightly grassy place, partly in 
shade of White Pine and some small deciduous trees. The petals 
are a little longer than the sepals, otherwise it corresponds to the 
description in Britton’s Manual and with specimens of the same plant 
collected by W. W. Eggleston, in Proctorsville, Vt., which is believed 
to be the only other reported New England station. ‘The Connecti- 
cut station seems to be decidedly out of, and much South of its hitherto 
known range. — GrorGeE H. BarTLETT, North Guilford, Connecticut. 
A CONNECTICUT STATION FOR LYCOPODIUM SELAGO. —In the Gray 
Herbarium 1 find a small but well fruited and unmistakable specimen 
of Lycopodium Selago, L., collected in a cool shaded ravine near New 
Haven, Connecticut by Mr. John A. Allen in 1879. The plant was 
evidently sent by Mr. Allen to Dr. Sereno Watson in whose hand 
the label is written. This specimen seems never to have been 
recorded and certainly has been overlooked in recent years. It is of 
interest not merely as a voucher for a plant new to the known flora 
of the state but as extending a generally alpine and boreal species to 
the southern coast of New England. The nearest hitherto recorded 
station is Mt. Holyoke, Massachusetts, where the species was collected 
in 1903 by Professor George F. Freeman (See RHODORA v. 290).—
