1913] Norton,— Plants from Islands and Coast of Maine 141 
beth, Cushings and Green Islands, Casco Bay, Seguin, Pumpkin Knob 
near Damascove, Haddock Island in Bristol, have furnished herbarium 
specimens at hand at this writing; and it is in the herbarium of the 
New England Botanical Club from Kennebunkport, Cushing’s Island, 
Monhegan Island, Great Gott Island, and Great Head on Mt. Desert 
Island, but there are no specimens from farther east; while the Gray 
Herbarium shows specimens from the Isles of Shoals, but no stations 
between Mt. Desert Island and the Gaspé Peninsula of Quebec. 
POTENTILLA FRUTICOSA L. Crumple Island, near Jonesport, has a 
small colony. 
RUBUS CHAMAEMORUS L. Since this plant has received frequent 
notices in print, including the pages of Ruopora, the following sta- 
tions only are to be noted. Fishermans Island, near Great Wass 
Island Life Saving Station, Aug. 4, 1904. It has already been noticed 
from near Prospect Harbor, in Gouldsborough *. In Gouldsborough 
it is not confined to this vicinity but occurs also about Corea. The 
fruitis gathered here. In 1904 I was told by two young boys at Corea, 
that they had sold six quarts of the berries at fifteen cents per quart, 
and more had been preserved for home use. 
GERANIUM CAROLINIANUM L. Reported as a Maine plant in the 
early catalogues, but such of the early herbarium specimens as I have 
seen labelled G. carolinianum all have proved to be G. bicknellii Britton. 
In the seventh edition of Gray's Manual the range is restricted to 
Eastern Massachusetts southward and westward. The occurrence 
of G. carolinianum at the junction of the Presumpscot River with tide 
water in Falmouth, where it was collected by Edward B. Chamberlain 
and the writer in 1907 may be noteworthy. 
EUPHORBIA POLYGONIFOLIA L. A noteworthy eastern station is 
found at Matinicus Island. It is frequent from Long Island, in Casco 
Bay westward, and has been recorded from Phippsburgh and George- 
town.? 
EMPETRUM NIGRUM L. Common from Mt. Desert eastward. 
Westward it becomes local, and seems to disappear on the coast at 
the southwesterly entrance to Penobscot Bay. Abundant at Mati- 
nicus Seal Island, and occurs at Matinicus. Abundant at White Head, 
Knox County, and has spread to the adjacent Browns Islands. This 
station has been known to me for upwards of thirty years; here the 
1 Fl. Mt. Desert, 91.
