6205. EPIGAEA L. 



1. Epigaea repens L. Trailing-arbutus. Map 1578. Very local and 

 limited in quantity at each station where I have seen it. In addition 

 to the counties indicated on the map it has been reported from Lake, 

 Marshall, and Montgomery Counties. In northern Indiana it grows in 

 moist and very sandy soil in protected places in woodland. In the southern 

 part of the state it grows in slightly acid soil on shady slopes on or close 

 to the sandstone outcrops, usually associated with black and white oaks.

6206. GAULTHERIA [Kalm] L. 



1. Gaultheria procumbens L. Wintergreen. Map 1579. Rare to fre- 

 quent in some of the northern counties. Southward it has been found in 

 only a few places in a few counties as relicts on sandstone outcrops. Its 

 preferred habitat in Indiana is rather moist and very sandy black oak flats. 

 It is also found on dry, sandy black and white oak slopes. The usual form 

 of the leaf is obovate to oval but plants with nearly orbicular and narrow- 

 elliptic leaves are found. The extremes in leaf form have been given botani- 

 cal names but I do not consider our plants as coming within the range of 

 the named forms.
