Forma Candida, n. f., lobis corollae albis, macula basilari nee 

 brunneo-marginata. — At scattered stations throughout the range. 

 Type: Weymouth, Massachusetts, August 8, 1905, Miss Underwood 

 (Gray Herb.). 



Of the Weymouth station Mrs. Clark wrote in Riiodora, vii. 38 

 (1905): "there are hundreds of the plants none of which show the 

 slightest tinge of pink in the flowers. No typical pink Mowers can be 

 found nearer than at a pond in South Weymouth, fully three miles 

 away, where .... all ... .have borne pink flowers. The white form 

 shows no constant differences from the type except in color. The 

 petals are not greenish nor creamy, but a very pure white, and the 

 brown markings usually found at the 'eye' of the pink flowers are 

 wanting in the white form the centre of which is a delicate green or 

 yellow color. The plants seem larger and more vigorous than those 

 of the type. . . .On two sides of the large pond the white flowers are 

 massed so closely together that when seen from the street they bring 

 to mind a field of daisies in early summer." 



The very striking albino of 8. campanulata seems not to have had a 

 convenient designation and it may be called 



S. campanulata (L.) Torr., forma albina, n. f., lobis corollae albis. 

 — Occasional throughout the range of the species. Type: peaty 

 margin of Small Pond, Barnstable, Massachusetts, July 31, 1913, 

 Fernald, no. 10,224 (Herb. New Engl. Bot. CI.).
