This is another common West 
habit Florida. Mettenius, whg referred it to Aspidium on account 
of a barely perceptible rudiment of an indusium, recognized four 
varieties: cordata, hastcefolia, radicans and asplenioides. Captain 
Smith's specimens represent the first and third of these forms, which 
are often found on the same plant, and cannot properly be separated 
even as varieties. 
54. Adiantum tenerum, Swz.— Fine specimens from the same 
station, a new locality. 
55. Aspleniumfirmum, Kze. — The same station. 
56. AspIemuinrhizophyUum,¥s.z^.— Y:h^^2.\^^%lzX\oxi, These fronds 
are over a foot long, and have much coarser segments than the 
plants heretofore separated under the name of A. myriophylhmi. The 
intermediate forms now sent in by several collectors show that the 
latter can not be kept distinct, and that, with Mr. Davenport 
(Catalogue, Supplement, March, 1883, p. 46), we must be content with 
the older name for both. 
. 57. Aspidium trifoliatutn, Swz.— The same station. Several 
other well known Florida ferns are in Captain Smith's collection of 
the present year, and are represented by fine specimens, as usual. 
Plants New to the Connecticut Flora.— Mr. Charles Wright, 
the veteran botanist, has found the following plants additional to 
the Berzelius catalogue : 
Ludtvigia polycarpa, Short & Peter. — Abundant in wet places in 
Hartford. 
Crantzia lineata, Nutt.— Salt marshes at Fenwick, near the railway 
station. 
Alopecurus geniculatus, L.— Common in wet places about Wethers- 
field. 
Mrs, Emily J. Leonard, of Meriden. has nnfirpr! a f^w n^-vvlv in- 
troduced plants : 
Sarothamnus scoparius, Wimmer. — Near Meriden, some ten square 
rods of it by the roadside. 
Phacelia Furshii, Buckley*— At Short Beach, Branford. 
Fhacelia viscida, Torrey. — Spontaneous with Impaiiens fulva and 
other brook-plants, in a spot on which muck had been deposited. 
To these I add : 
Glycyrrhiza lepidoia, Nutt.— Established and spreading on a 
roadside in New Haven. 
Cydoloma 
Hamden, Miss Edwards. 
ChcBtomorpha melagonium, Kutzing. — On rocks at low water mark 
on Black Point, East Lyme ; an alga not before noticed south of 
Cape Cod.
