perigynia collected May 9 and June 13, 1921. Nos. 3546 and 3717. 
Rather rich neutral soil of mixed hardwood upland. One station. 
Not reported north of South Carolina on the Atlantic slope. 
*ERIOCAULON PARKERI Robinson. Chickahominy River near 
Lanexa, July 30, 1921. No. 4136. In shallow water at edge of river. 
Reported from Washington, D. C., in the second edition of Britton

*JuNCcUS ASPER Engelm. (J. caesariensis Coville). Nos. 3992, 
4616. First collected July 13, 1921; mature capsules collected Aug. 
15 and Oct. 16. Found at a number of stations west of Williamsburg 
in sphagnum-magnolia swamps, in heavy, strongly acid soils. This 
local species has heretofore been supposed to be confined to southern 
New Jersey. The Virginia specimens seem to have fewer heads and 
slightly smaller inflorescence than those from New Jersey. Deter- 
mined by Mr. F. V. Coville. 
LuzuLa SALTUENSIS Fernald. Near Williamsburg, April 9, 1921, 
No. 3400. Rich neutral soil of white oak and beech woods, associated 
with L. campestris, var. bulbosa, but preferring rather more fertile

comparatively near the coast in Georgia (Harper).
