§ 108. Negundo aceroides in New York.—An important addition 
to the flora of New York has recently been made in the discovery 
of Negundo aceroides, Moench, in a small piece of woods on the bot- 
tom land of the Inlet valley, about two miles south of Ithaca. 
There are a dozen or more plants, the largest being 30 to 40 feet in 
height. They were first observed by one of our botanical students, 
Mr. J. C. Branner, while out collecting. So far as I am able to 
learn, this tree has never before been recorded as growing spontane- 
ously within the limits of the State. A. N. PREnNTIss.
