folk County was later confirmed by Messrs. E. 8. Miller and H. 
W. Young.* It was collected some years ago by Mr. W. H. 
Leggett near Rossville, Staten Island,f and in July of last year I 
found it growing abundantly on the yellow drift along the 
southern shore of the Raritan River near Sayreville, Middlesex 
Co., N. J., and on Sandy Hook. It seems to replace J. dichoto- 
mus, E\l., of southern New Jersey in the northward extension of 
the Pine Barren Flora.
