1922] Fernald, — Notes on the Flora of Nova Scotia 177 



AcEBEUBEUM I,., \ ar. TEIDENS Wood. Halifax Co. : mixed woods, 

 Armdale (Dutch Village). 



*A. Negundo L. Well naturalized on banks of Lahave River. 

 Bridgewater. 



Vitis labrusca X vinifer'a. A single vigorous vine of one of the 

 commonly cultivated grapes is growing in the gravelly thicket at the 

 foot of a railroad hank near Uniacke Lake; obviously sprung from 

 seed thrown from the train. 



Hypericum dissimulatum Bicknell. Additional stations in Digby, 

 Yarmouth and Lunenburg Cos. 



Elatine minima (Nutt.) Fisch. & Meyer. Many additional 

 stations in Annapolis, Lunenburg and Hants Cos. 



Hudsonia ericoides L. Shelburne Co.: dry rocky and sandy 

 barrens, Shelburne. 



Viola labradorica Schrank. The Nova Scotia material passing 

 as V. conspersa has the very small and nearly entire stipules of V. 

 labradorica. In foliage it is sometimes quite like the latter, at other 

 times like the former and its exact identification must await better 

 material. 



Daphne Mezereum L. Thoroughly naturalized and very handsome 

 in roadside-thickets and on clay banks in the gypsiferous or basaltic 

 regions from Annapolis Co. to Hants Co. 



Shepherdia canadensis (L.) Nutt. A single shrub, not yet destroyed, 

 on an open bank near gypsum quarries, Windsor. 



Decodon verticillatus (L.) Ell., var. laevigatus T. & G. 

 Additional stations; for Digby Co. : among granite boulders bordering 

 Cedar Lake, New Tusket. Shelburne Co.: quaking sphagnous 

 border of Western Lake, Birch town Brook; peaty margin of McKay 's 

 Lake, Middle Ohio. 



Rhexia virginica L. Additional stations, for Yarmouth Co.: 

 peaty and cobbly beach of St John (Wilson's ) Lake; very abundant, 

 peaty swale bordering Canoe Lake. Shelburne Co. : upper border 

 of cobbly beach, Welshtown (Birch town) Lake; upper border of 

 cobbly beach McKay's Lake, Middle Ohio. Lunenburg Co.: 

 upper border of gravelly beach, Feindel's Lake, west of Bridgewater. 



*Epilobium coloratum Muhl. Open spot with both native and 

 introduced plants near railroad station, Weymouth. Should be 

 sought in more natural habitats. First east of the Penobscot region, 

 the earlier records from eastern Canada resting on E. glandulosum 

 vars. adenocaulon (Haussk.) Fernald and occidentale (Trel.) Fernald. 



Oenothera hybrida Michx. Fl. Bor.-Am. i. 225 (1803); Blake, 

 Rhodora, xx. 51 (1918). 0. fruticosa, var. hirsuta Nutt. in T. & 

 G. Fl. i. 496 (1840). Kneiffia tetragona hybrida (Michx.) Pennell, 

 Bull Torr. Bot. CI. xlvi. 371 (1919).— Digby Co.: dry sandy open 

 soil of pastures and roadsides, Ashmore. Doubtless this is the plant 

 reported by others from western Nova Scotia as 0. fruticosa. 



Dr. F. W 7 . Pennell objects to the use of the perfectly identified and
