1911] Fernald,— Notes from the Phaenogamic Herbarium 183 
suckle reaches its northeastern limit in the Brunswick region. The 
Club Herbarium has numerous specimens, collected chiefly by Miss 
Furbish, from West Bath, Harpswell, and Brunswick (bank of Stevens 
River, ‘‘Gurnet,” and New Meadows River). 
SOLIDAGO RACEMOSA Greene. This very characteristic species, 
confined to rocks along a few of our northeastern rivers (St. John, 
Aroostook, Kennebec, etc.) has a fine colony on one of the islands of 
the Androscoggin at Brunswick. 
SOLIDAGO ULMIFOLIA Muhl. The most northeasterly station yet 
known for this plant (somewhat like S. rugosa, but with glabrous 
stems) is on a rocky bank at Cape Popham, Phippsburg (M. L. 
Fernald, August 6, 1894). 
AsTER LINDLEYANUS T. & G. seems to reach its southern limit in 
Maine in the Brunswick region. The writer has before him five 
sheets collected by various botanists at Brunswick and one sheet from 
near Bull Rock Bridge, West Bath. 
ASTER TARDIFLORUS L., another northern species, is as yet unknown 
in Maine from south of Brunswick. It was collected there by Miss 
Furbish in 1894. 
BIDENS HYPERBOREA Greene. The only known region of the 
United States for this boreal species is the salt marsh along Winne- 
gance Creek, Phippsburg. See RHopDora, xii. 120, 144 (1910), also x. 
201 (1908). 
SENECIO SYLVATICUS L. This species abounds on the sea-cliffs 
of eastern Maine (see RHopona, xii. 106), but the southernmost 
stations yet known in the state are ledges and cliffs at Southport 
(M. L. Fernald, August 4, 1894) and Georgetown (H. M. Noyes, 
August, 1900). 
Senecio RoBBINSI Oakes is known from East Auburn (E. D. 
Merrill, August, 1896) and from Great Diamond Island, Portland 
Harbor (Kate Furbish, 1887) and should be sought in the intervening 
territory. 
CIRSIUM PUMILUM (Nutt.) Spreng. The most northeasterly 
station represented in the Club Herbarium is Brunswick, but the 
plant undoubtedly extends on gravelly and more sterile areas con- 
siderably northeast of that region.
