Gaz., 36: 401-420. 1903. (In this paper, by an arbitrary selec- 
tion of species, the apparent preponderance of bog-plants in the 
glacial region, as compared with the southern coastal plain, is greatly 
exaggerated.) |

HIERACIUM MURORUM IN MASSACHUSETTS. — On the rsth of 
June, 1904, while exploring in the woods on the outskirts of North- 
ampton, Massachusetts, I found in a damp, mossy hollow, a yellow 
flower belonging to the Composite, which was new to me. I took it 
home for study, and made it out to be ZZeraezum murorum, L. My 
only hesitation in so naming it arose from the fact that the plant was 
not credited to New England, in any of the books. However, I sent 
it to Mr. Fernald, who pronounced it good Mieracium murorum. 
There was quite a colony of it growing in the hollow, and the 
bright yellow blossoms in the mossy bed made a very attractive 
sight. — Emmy Hrrcucock Terry, Northampton, Massachusetts. 
ACTINELLA ODORATA IN MAINE.—Actinella odorata, Gray, a native 
of the Southwest (Texas, Mexico, etc.), was found at Waterville, 
Maine, last summer, by Mr. S. Plaisted. It was growing on waste 
from a cotton mill and was in bloom in June. A specimen was sent 
to the Gray Herbarium, where it was identified by Dr. J. M. Green- 
man, who states that the species has not been reported from Maine.

Vol. 7, no. 75, including pages 41 to 60, was issued 29 March, 1905.
