mountains of North Carolina and Arethusa bulbosa from 
Louisiana. Spiranthes Romanzoffiana is represented (in 
the Gray Herbarium) by a single plant mounted on a 
sheet with a plant of S.cernua var. odorata. The name 
on the label, in M. A. Curtis’ handwriting, is Spiranthes 
cernua. 'The occurrence of this species in South Carolina 
is most unusual, if not doubtful, since the nearest station 
is in New York. 'I'wo collections of Listera convallarioides 
were seen from the southeastern states. hese were a 
specimen from ‘‘Mts. Carol.’’ in the Gray Herbarium 
which was collected by Asa Gray and a specimen in the 
herbarium of the New York Botanical Garden labeled 
‘Southern Flora’? by A.W.Chapman. The occurrence 
of this widely ranging Canadian and Northwestern spe- 
cies in the mountains in North Carolina isvery interesting. 
Arethusa bulbosa is represented from Louisiana by a soli- 
tary specimen in the herbarium of the Missouri Botanical 
Garden mounted on a sheet with plants of Pogonia ophi- 
oglossoides which were collected by Josiah Hale at Alex- 
andria, Rapides Parish, Louisiana. 
In studying the Orchidaceae of the southeastern 
United States, [ have arrived at certain conclusions con- 
cerning the status of some of the so-called species in the 
genera Calopogon and Spiranthes. In a conservative treat- 
ment of these two genera, it is necessary to recognize 
some of the material under the following new combina- 
tions. 
Calopogon barbatus ( Walt.) Ames var. multi- 
florus ( Lindl.) Correll comb. nov. 
Calopogon multifiorus Lindley Gen. & Sp. Orch. PI. 
(1840) 425. 
Tyrer Locality: ‘Hab. in Florida, /. Cozzens.’’ 
Limodorum multiflorum Mohr in Bull. Torr. Bot. 
Club 24 (1897) 23.
