(Porter) and south to Georgia (where I have collected it more than 

 once), but with some considerable gaps in its known range.* 



Carex alholuicscens Schw. West to Pennsylvania (Porter) and 

 INIanitoba, south to Virginia (Kearney), Alabama (Mohr), Texas and 

 Central America ( ?) ? 



Carex alata Torr. West to Michigan, south to Florida and INIiss- 

 issippi.^ 



Carex sterilis Willd. (C . Atlantica Bailey.) W^est to Pennsylvania, 

 south to Florida and Mississippi.* 



Juncus militaris Bigel. West to the Pocono region of Pennsylvania, 

 south to Maryland. 



Iris versicolor Iv., Pogonia ophioglossoides (Tv.) Ker, and Limo- 

 dorum tuberosum \j., common plants in the glaciated region, in Georgia 

 seem to be strictly confined to the coastal plain and in West Virginia 

 are each reported from only one county, but they are known from so 

 many interior stations in other states that they are scarcely worth 

 mentioning in this connection. 



Nelumbo lutea (Willd.) Pers. West to Minnesota and Nebraska, 

 south to Florida, Missouri and Texas. 



Ni/mphaea (N'uphar). The species with floating leaves, three or 

 four in the north and about the same number in the south, seem to be 

 confined to the glaciated region and coastal plain, while the only one 

 known in the Piedmont region is N. advena, with erect leaves.^ 



Triadenum Virginicimi (L.) Raf. (Elodes rampanvlata Pursli). 

 West to ^Manitoba and Nebraska (?), south to northern Florida and 

 Louisiana.
