74 Rhodora [April 



In the following summer, 1909, I had the pleasure of revisiting 

 this station, in the company of our fellow member, Mr. Charles 

 Schweinfurth, and in finding the trees in full bloom. Specimens were 

 collected by each of us. I cite the one preserved in my herbarium, 

 with corrected data: woods, one mile west of Chase Farm, Albany, 

 Carroll County, New Hampshire, July 26, 1909, //. St. John, no. 170. 



Chase Farm is most easily accessible from Conway, lying about two 

 miles southeast by east from that village. This station for the 

 Rhododendron is worthy of record not simply because it lies about six 

 miles to the northeast of those recorded by Prof. Farlow, but because 

 the trees were in such thriving condition and so thoroughly at home. 

 It lies in the valley of the Swift River, in the township of Albany, 

 instead of Conway, as I supposed at the time, and iust within the 

 boundaries of the new White Mountain National Forest. 

 Cambridge, Massachusetts.

In the recent parts of Rabenhorst's Kryptogamen-Flora, Miiller 

 treats the genera Scapania, Radula, and Porella (or Madotheca). He 

 not only gives full descriptions of the various species represented in the 

 European Mora but appends interesting remarks on geographical dis- 

 tribution. Many of these remarks relate to North American records, 

 and among the species which he cites from New England the following 

 may be particularly noted: Scapania Oakesii Aust. (from New Hamp- 

 shire), S. paludicola Loeske & K. Mull, (from Connecticut), and 

 Radula Lindbergiaua Gottsche (from Vermont). These species do not 

 appear in the writer's Revised List of New England Hepatieae, 2 

 although S. Oakesii is really included under S. dentata Dumort. and 

 S. paludicola under S. irrigua (Nees) Dumort. The reasons for con-
