Primula Americana, Rydb., Bull. Torn. Bot. Club, vol. 28, p. 500, 



P. fariuosa is apparently confined to northeast America 

 if it occurs on this continent at all. All the western references 

 to P. Jarinosa in previous Canadian publications should be 

 placed here.

Described from specimens collected by Prof. John 

 Macoun near Victoria, Vancouver Island, and distributed as 

 A^. parviflora Dougl. under the number 667. This is an 

 abundant species near Victoria and has been distributed from 

 the herbarium of the Geological Survey under the numbers 

 666, 667, 16,250 and 16,248. 



Onosmodium Virginianum, DC. 



The specimens credited to Ontario in Macoun's catalogue 

 of Canadian Plants, vol. i, p. 343 prove to be O. Carolinianum. 

 We have no authentic record of O. Virginianum being found 

 in Canada. 



Echinospermum deflexu.m, Lehm. 



Mr. M. L. Fernald writes that the only American speci- 

 mens of true E. deflexum in the Gray herbarium are one from 

 Wisconsin, and one collected in waste places at Cam- 

 bellton, N.B., July 29th, 1876, by R. Chalmers. It was 

 probably introduced from Europe in both places.
