but generally in little or no shade. I have specimens from open, wooded 

 slopes, crevices of cliffs, roadsides, fallow fields, interdimal flats, marshes, 

 and right of ways of railroads.

la. Fragaria virginiana var. illinoensis (Prince) Gray. (Frag aria 

 Grayana Vilmorin of Britton and Brown, Illus. Flora, ed. 2.) Large 

 Virginia Strawberry. Map 1147. This variety, no doubt, is found also 

 in all parts of the state but it is more frequent in the lake area. The 

 habitat is similar to that of the species. 



Western N. Y. to Minn., southw. to Ala., La., and Mo.

 cultivated strawberry often persists for a few years where it has been cul- 

 tivated but does not become established. 



My Montgomery County specimens were found on a wooded sandstone 

 bluff of Sugar Creek in the "Shades." My Wells County specimen was

 roadside by a woods. This is a European species but it may be also a 

 native of America. 



Newf. to Ind., southw. to Pa. and Ky.

 I found this species to be common in one place at the base of the sandstone 

 bluff along the Ohio River in Rockport, Spencer County. I reported it 

 from a marsh in Porter County but later discovered that my specimen was 

 Rubus pubescens Raf. Peattie also reported it from the same place in 

 Porter County, no doubt basing his report upon mine and overlooking the
