DORA xviii. 147, 1916. There is no specimen to verify the report of 
S. stellaris at Amesbury (J. H. Sears, RHODORA x. 43, 1908) but it is 
probably this plant also. 
S.campanulata (L.) Torr. (S. gracilis (Michx.) Salisb. See 
Fernald, RnHopona xvii. 145, 1916.) Pembroke (W. L. Foster, 
Sept. 10, 1884). Specimen in Gray Herb. In Rnopona i. 224, 1899, 
A. W. Hosmer records this as found at one station in Concord, 1897. 
This record is doubtful, for no specimen exists. The plant may have 
been introduced by Minot Pratt, whose work in introducing plants 
can be read in RHODORA j. 168, 1899.
