276 Cyperaceae Carex 



27. Carex crinita Lam. var. gynandra (Schwein.) Schwein. & Torr. 

 Reported, as Carex gynandra Schwein., by Clark from Lake Maxinkuckee, 

 Marshall County. Clark's specimen upon which this report was based was 

 found in the National Herbarium and it is typical C. crinita. 



Newf. to Wis., southw. to Fla. and La. 



28. Carex pauciflora Lightf. Pepoon reports this species from the 

 Chicago region as common in bogs "southeast" (i.e. Lake or Porter 

 Counties, Ind.), and Peattie reports it from the Calumet District (Lake 

 County). No Indiana specimens could be found except a sheet in the 

 herbarium of Notre Dame University bearing the label "By Mineral 

 Springs (Porter County), Ind., J. A. Nieuwland, 1918." Since Dr. Nieuw- 

 land usually gave the exact collection date for his specimens instead of 

 merely the year, as well as a collection number, it seems possible that this 

 label may have been made out from memory, rather than from field notes, 

 at a date long after the actual collection. If this were so there could be 

 some question whether he was really certain that the specimen had been 

 collected in Indiana. The present evidence for the occurrence of the 

 species in the state is hardly sufficiently conclusive to admit it as a member 

 of the Indiana flora. 



Sphagnum bogs; Newf. to Alaska, southw. to Conn., Pa., and Minn., 

 and near the Pacific coast to Wash. ; also in n. Eurasia. 



29. Carex Baileyi Britt. {Carex lurida var. gracilis (Boott) Bailey.) 

 Reported from Clark, Marion, and Putnam Counties. Specimens were not 

 found but doubtless all Indiana reports were based upon incorrect determi- 

 nations. 



N. H. to N. Y., southw. in the mts. to Va. and Tenn. 



30. Carex comosa X hystricina var. Dudleyi. A hybrid reported from 

 Lake County by Higley & Raddin and by Peattie. No specimens could be 

 found.
