1913] Howe,— An additional Note on Nantucket Lichens 93 
smooth scales (somewhat inconstant characters relied upon to sepa- 
rate C. Deweyana from C. Bolanderi) the Gaspé plant belongs with C. 
Deweyana. In the large mass of specimens of this species examined 
occasional tendencies toward the Gaspé extreme are found but in all 
these cases the tendency to crowded spikes is confined to one or two 
culms on an otherwise typical plant of C. Deweyana. As a pro- 
nounced variation the Gaspé plant seems to be confined to that limited 
geographic area. It may be designated:— 
Carex DEWEYANA Schwein., var. collectanea, n. var., spicis con- 
tiguis.— Quebec: alluvial woods, Grand Cascapedia River, July 12- 
15, 1905, Williams, Collins & Fernald, TYPE in Gray Herb.; woods,
