A new Locality for Nelumbium.— In a swamp a few miles to the 
west of Osterville, Mass., a village on the southern side of Cape Cod, 
Nelumbiu7n luteum, Wild., grows more or less abundantly. Probably 
this is the most eastern locality of the species. One cannot say 
whether it originally grew here, because the swamp is near the reser-

east was, as far as I can ascertain, unsuspected by our botanists.
