116 Rhodora. [JUNE 
HIERACIUM FLORENTINUM AT WELLESLEY HiLLs, MASSACHUSETTS. 
— On October 22, 1912, I found an unfamiliar plant growing rather 
abundantly in dry sandy soil by the side of Cliff Road, Wellesley 
Hills. Prof. K. M. Wiegand identified this as Hieracium florentinum 
All. The American range of this plant is given in Gray’s Manual as 
"eastern Quebec to northern New York." There is, however, a 
sheet of it in the Gray Herbarium collected by Mrs. Ella L. Horr 
on June 11, 1911, at Worcester, Massachusetts, “in a pasture, well 
established," and a sheet in the Herbarium of the New England 
Botanical Club, collected by Mr. F. F. Forbes, June 16, 1912, in 
Brookline, Massachusetts, where found in abundance in * dry sandy 
ground off Pond Ave." With these three Massachusetts stations the 
range is extended far to the south and east of that given in the 
Manual.— Ruru S. Ropman, Wellesley College. 
THE NINETEENTH ANNUAL MEETING OF THE JossELYN BOTANICAL 
Society will be held at Thomaston, Maine, August 12-16, with head- 
quarters at the Knox Hotel. Further notice, with program, will be 
sent to members, and to any persons interested, on request, at least 
two weeks previous to the meeting.— Dana W. FELLOWS, Secretary, 
Portland, Maine. 
Vol. 15, no. 173, including pages 81 to 100, was issued 19 May, 1913.
