A somewhat extended review of the principal variations of 

 Lycopodiiim clavatuni in North America north of Mexico. Besides

 gon; var. hrevispicaturn Peck, a peculiar form known onty from 

 Mt. Wallace, New York; var. inonostachyon Grev. and Hook., 

 mainl}^ Canadian but extending to Mt. Washington, New 

 Hampshire; and var. megastachyon Fernald and Bissell, var. nov., 

 extending from Quebec and Cape Breton Island to Vermont, 

 Massachusetts and Connecticut, and locally westward to 

 Michigan. The last variety is said to be dosest related to v^r. 

 monostachyoiij from which it differs especiall}'' in its longer pedun- 

 cles and in its thicker and very much longer (single) strobiles.
