Primula Americana, Rydb., Bull. Torr. Bot. Club, vol. 28, p. 500, 



P. farinosa is apparently confined to northeast America 

 if it occurs on this continent at all. All the western references 

 to P. farinosa in previous Canadian publications should be 

 placed here.

Described from specimens collected by Prof. John

A^. parviflora Dougl. under the number 667. This is an 



abundant species near Victoria and has been distributed from 



the herbarium of the Geological Survey under the numbers

 in Canada.

 Wisconsin, and one collected in waste places at Cam- 

 bellton, N.B., July 29th, 1876, by R. Chalmers. It was 

 probably introduced from Europe in both places.
