1911] Bissell,— Notes on Connecticut Plants 31 
Juncus EFFUSUS L., var. CONGLOMERATUS Engelm. Open swamp, 
Voluntown (C. H. Bissell). Before this known in New England 
only from a swamp in Franklin, where it was collected by Mr. R. W. 
Woodward. 
CHENOPODIUM GLAUCUM L. About railroad tracks at Canaan 
station, North Canaan (M. L. Fernald). In 1909 Prof. Fernald 
found only a few plants but in 1910 they were plentiful and extended 
for some distance along the tracks. 
CLEMATIS VERTICILLARIS DC. Killingly, near the Rhode Island 
line (C. H. Knowlton). The Connecticut Catalogue gives the eastern 
limit of this species as Bolton, unfortunately overlooking this locality. ` 
TROLLIUS LAXUS Salisb. Woods near Falls Village, Canaan (Miss 
M. J. Whitney). It is a pleasure to be able to record another locality 
for this plant as until now the Cornwall locality was the only known 
one in New England. 
Rosa canina L. Roadsides and border of fields, Portland (Mrs. 
F. W. Starmer), Salisbury (Mrs. C. S. Phelps). A rather rare escape. 
Rosa nitwa Willd. Old pasture bordering cedar swamp, Plain- 
field (C. H. Bissell). This species has not before been known south 
of the town of Thompson. 
PRUNUS AMERICANA Marsh., var. MOLLIS T. € G. Roadside in 
rocky ground, East Granby (H. S. Clark, C. A. Weatherby & C. H. 
Bissell). First collected very late in the season and then thought 
to be P. nigra. Later, Mr. Weatherby collected better material and 
found the plants to be of this variety. This is a plant of the South- 
west and must have been introduced at this place where it has spread 
and there are now many shrubs. Not before recorded from the state. 
Lespeseza HIRTA (L.) Hornem., var. OBLONGIFOLIA Britton. 
Glastonbury (Mrs. F. W. Starmer). This variety seems not to have 
been previously recorded north of New Jersey and its occurrence here 
is quite an extension of range. 
LECHEA MARIRTIMA Leggett, var INTERIOR Robinson. Roadsides 
and open woods in sandy soil, Enfield and Suffield (R. W. Woodward 
& C. H. Bissell). This material is not exactly typical; it has the 
pubescence and small pod of this variety, but the inflorescence is 
inclined to be elongated as in L. intermedia rather than pyramidal, 
as it should be in this variety. 
Heproma uispma Pursh. Dry sandy hillside, Portland (C. H. 
Bissell). Apparently native at this locality. Known from only 
one other locality in the state and there seemingly introduced.
