GRAY HERBARIUM. 
SOME RARE PLANTS FROM THE VICINITY OF 
WELLESLEY, MASSACHUSETTS. 
К. M. WIEGAND. 
Dunixa the past summer the writer, with an assistant, was engaged 
in collecting and cataloging the Spermatophyta in the vicinity of 
Wellesley College for the college herbarium. Some three thousand 
sheets of plants were collected, and in this material when it came to 
be worked over were found a number of rare plants a few of which 
seemed to extend known ranges, while others were of comparatively 
rare occurrence in Eastern Massachusetts. It seemed best to record 
these stations in the following list:— 
Scheuchzeria palustris L. Mud Pond, Natick; Westboro Swamp. 
Sagittaria subulata (L) Buch., var. gracillima (Wats.) J. G. Smith. 
Waban Brook, Wellesley; Raceway at dam, Newton Lower Falls. 
Panicum meridionale Ashe. Wellesley Campus, near barn. ‘The 
writer has also found it on the Ipswich Sand Dunes. Not reported 
in the new Gray’s Manual north of Connecticut.
