JUNCUS DICHOTOMUS IN RHODE IsLAND.— The species occurs at 
Westerly, where I collected it among the sand hills near the beach, on 
September 9, 1912. Professor M. L. Fernald, who has kindly verified 
my specimens, writes that the species has not been reported previously 
from the State. Specimens from Westerly have been deposited in 
the Gray Herbarium.— R. W. Woopwarp, New Haven, Connecticut. 
AN ALBINO KALMIA ANGUSTIFOLIA.— In August, 1911, Professor 
Wiegand and the writer found on the hills south of St. John’s, New- 
foundland, a considerable colony of Kalmia angustifolia with white 
corollas; and recently Miss Martha Louise Loomis has sent to the 
Gray Herbarium fresh specimens of the same albino form from Sher- 
born, Massachusetts. As this form is conspicuous in the field and 
one which it may be desirable to refer to by name it may be called 
KALMIA ANGUSTIFOLIA L., forma candida, n. f., corolla alba.— NEw-
