Salix balsamifera, Barratt. Stillwater River, near bank. 
* Narcissus poeticus, L. This plant has grown wild in a field 
quite remote from buildings, ever since I can remember. 
It is constantly increasing, new plants springing up many 
yards away from others. 
Funcus Greenit, Oakes & Tuck. This is very abundant in an 
alder swamp. Of special interest, as it has hitherto been 
considered a coast plant, while Orono is nearly forty miles 
from the nearest salt water. : 
* Juncus Canadensis, J. Gay, vars. longecaudatus and subcauda- 
tus, of Engelmann, are both common, the former growing in 
swamps and the latter on the sandy shores of a small pond, the 
procumbent form being very plenty. Coralline tubers were 
found on many plants of var. subcaudatus. 
* Carex aquatilis X stricta, Bailey. This new form occurs ina 
meadow on the college grounds. It is strange that it has never 
been noticed before, as it grows on both sides of the main 
driveway to the college buildings. | 
* Carex communis, Bailey, var. Wheeleri, Bailey. In dry woods, 
but not common. 
* Carex chordorhiza, Ehrh. (See Bull., Oct., 1890). 
* Carex echinata, Murray, var. angustata, Bailey, and a form 
approaching var. cephalantha, Bailey. Both quite common. 
* Carex straminea, Willd., var. alata, Bailey. Not uncommon 
along the line of the M. C. R. R. between Orono and Veazie. 
Other Carices of note found here are: pauctflora, Lightf., Pseudo- 
cyperus, L., Houghtonii, Torr., lenticularis, Michx., Magel- 
lanica, Lam., limosa, L., flava, L., Vars. graminis and viridula 
of Bailey, wmbellata, Schk., deflexa, Hornem, var. Deanet, 
Bailey, canescens, L., var. polystachya, Boott., common in 
ditches, tenuiflora, Wahl. tribuloides, Wahl., vars. turbuta and 
reducta of Bailey, together with sixty others. 
Panicum xanthophysum, Gray. Scarce. 
* Danthonia compressa, Aust. Not rare in dry woods. 
Sporobolus cuspidatus, Torr. I found one plant of this in dry 
soil. Previously recorded from Northern Maine. 
Apera spica-venti, Beauv. Not infrequent in dry or cultivated | 
ground. ;
