New STATIONS FOR CHAMAECYPARIS ON Lona IsLAND, NEW 
Yonk.— Professor Fernald of the Gray Herbarium has called my 
attention to the fact that in Jelliffe’s Flora of Long Island the only 
authority given for the occurrence of Chamaecyparis thyoides (L.) 
B. S. P., on the island is a report made in 1874 by E. S. Miller and 
H. W. Young who listed it as growing in Suffolk Co. In view of this 
it seems worth recording that there is a good colony of the tree grow- 
ing within sight of the Long Island Railroad between the stations of 
Merrick and Bellmore, Nassau Co., and another just west of Amity- 
ville.— Jonn TREADWELL NicHoLs, American Museum of Natural 
History, New York. 
AN OCCURRENCE OF CATHARINAEA CRISPA IN MaiNE.— I am 
pleased to announce the discovery of Catharinaea crispa, James in 
Maine, as I understand it has never before been reported from this 
state, or so far northeasterly as this. It was fertile, and was found in 
Camden, Maine, 44? N. lat. 69? W. long., in a pasture near the bank 
of a large brook, on knolls where six years ago a growth of alders had 
been cleared away. The altitude is about 200 feet. For its deter- 
mination I am indebted to Mr. E. B. Chamberlain. Prof. J. Franklin 
Collins, in his list of New England plants, Ruopora 8: 131, gives 
only Massachusetts as definitely possessing it.— Atice L. CROCKETT, 
Camden, Maine. 
NOTEWORTHY Prants or SALISBURY, CONNECTICUT.— The past 
season I have been able to add the following rare or unusual plants to 
the list of those growing about Salisbury, Connecticut. 
Aspidium simulatum Davenp. In a black spruce swamp growing 
in sphagnum. Elevation 2000 ft. Quite abundant. 
Pellaea gracilis Michx. A third colony of this rare fern on an 
exposed boulder in a dense pine wood. 
Lycopodium annotinum L. In the same swamp with the Aspidium 
simulatum 
Potamogeton lucens Connecticutensis Robbins. Seems to be fairly 
abundant in one of the Twin Lakes. 
Eleocharis olivacea Torr. One colony on the shore of a mountain 
lake at an elevation of 2000 ft. 
Habenaria orbiculata (Pursh) Torr. In rich woods at Lime Rock. 
Not at all common.
