mung Co., but not in Broome. Prof. Dudley marks it “ fre- 
quent” in the Cayuga region, especially upon the east shore of 
the lake.) 
Tris pseudacorus, L. This beautiful, sparingly cultivated 
European flag, grows in a large patch (about 34 acre), remote 
from dwellings, about three miles up the creek, from whence it 
has become scattered down the stream, here and there, to its 
mouth, and thence on the right bank of the Susquehanna for 
about a mile. The farmers living near the original growth all 
assert, in answer to our questions concerning the origin of the 
station, that, as far as they knew, “it’s alwus ben thar.” (Marked 
“ scarce” in “Cayuga Flora,” where three stations are given ; 
not found in Chemung or Broome Counties.) 
Dioscorea villosa, L.. This plant was first detected here by 
Mr. F. V. Coville; we have since found it at his station and 
in a few other places along the creek banks. (Found also in a 
few localities in Broome and Chemung Counties, but not in the 
Cayuga region.) 
Hydrangea arborescens, L. Found in two places within the 
first four miles of the creek; also located here by Mr. Coville on _ 
his trip. (This is one of the plants that Dr. Torrey says “‘ prob- 
ably grow in the western district of the State of New York.” 
Dr. Lucy has met with it in one station, “ The Narrows” of the 
Chemung river, near Wellsburg, Chemung Co. ; it is not found 
in the Cayuga region, nor in Broome Co.) 
Arisema dracontium, Schott.; Flerkea proserpinacoides, 
Willd., and Wyssa multiflora, Wang., were located here ‘by Mr. 
Coville, whose stations we have not yet had an opportunity to 
visit. (Broome Co. affords only the last named; Cayuga has all, 
and Chemung the first and last.) 
Lobelia spicata, Lam., is quite plentiful on “ Spanish Hill,” 
where several individuals exist with pure white flowers. (Plen- 
tiful in Broome Co.; not found in the Cayuga region, and of 
Chemung we are uninformed.) 
Quercus ilicifolia, Wang., is found on the hills west of the 
creek, and north of Waverly near the creek. (Not found in 
Broome Co., nor in the Cayuga region; Chemung Co. ?) 
Campanula rotundifolia, L. One of the most beautiful plants
