SOME CONNECTICUT PLANTS. 
R. W. Woopwarp. 
Panicum oricola. Old Lyme, frequent on banks of tidal streams 
and along the shores of Long Island Sound. Orange, abundant on a 
salt marsh coated with sand. Specimens from these stations have 
been verified by Mrs. Agnes Chase. 
Agrostis alba aristata. Old Lyme, frequent in rocky pastures. 
Alopecurus geniculatus aristulatus. Franklin, abundant in a 
swampy depression in glacial gravel. 
Puccinellia paupercula alaskana. This plant, reported from the 
Blackhall river, Old Lyme by Dr. C. B. Graves, occurs in the same 
town along the shore of Long Island Sound. At the latter station, 
on some of the plants, a few of the spikelets have noticeably- longer 
glumes and lemmas, with the second glume 5-nerved and the lemma 
7-nerved, which suggests a tendency to approach the var. longiglumis 
of Fernald and Weatherby. 
Juncus dichotomus. Old Lyme, shore of Long Island Sound. 
Luzula campestris bulbosa. Old Lyme, in hard dry soil. This 
station is of interest, as being north of the ordinary range of this 
variety, and also because the plants exhibit little of the caespitose 
character commonly associated with varieties of Luzula campestris. 
Of the hundred or more plants seen by the writer, the majority had 
only a single culm. The var. multiflora, growing on the edges of the 
station, was strongly caespitose, and showed no tendency to develop 
bulblets. 
Spergularia canadensis. Old Lyme, fairly common along Blackhall 
river and on muddy shores near Long Island Sound. It occurs in 
colonies, and also associated with S. leiosperma. Groton is the only 
station reported in the Connecticut Catalogue. X 
Parnassia caroliniana. In eastern Connecticut, an essentially 
non-calcareous region, this species, which is commonly classed among 
the lime plants, is abundant in many places, as, for instance, at 
Franklin, where it is a common fall flower on wet meadows. 
Lechea Leggettii. Plentiful about Wintergreen Lake, New Haven. 
The writer collected the plant at this station in 1903, and has seen it 
there many times since.
