! There are two specimens of Juncus articulatus L. in the New England Botanical Club 
Herbarium collected by C. E. Perkins and mounted on one sheet, This formed a part 
of the Middlesex Institute Herbarium which was presented to the New England Botani- 
cal Club. One specimen from “Medford or Somerville near spring and quarry behind 
Winter Hill, Aug. 1, 1881” is named by Dr. C. W. Swan Juncus nodosus L. The second 
specimen is labelled ‘‘ Medford or vic. near Winter Hill, July 7, 1880." Under the label 
Dr. Swan has written, ‘ Plants do not correspond precisely with description of J. nodosus 
in the Manual, but are like specimens in herb. C. W. Swan, so named by Wm. Boott." 
This explains the reference to Juncus nodosus in Dame & Collins, Fl. Middlesex Co. 110
