374 BICKNELL: FERNS AND 
Hypoxts hirsuta (L.) Coville. A second station is near Long 
Pond where a solitary flowering plant was found June 1, 1909. 
Gymnadentopsis clavellata (Michx.) Rydb. A second station, 
for this orchid is ‘‘‘near the Cliff, 1888,’ Miss Mary Foster Coffin 
and Leroy Schumacher,” F. G. Floyd. 
Blephariglottis ciliaris (L.) Rydb. ‘‘‘Not far from the first 
station, about twenty-five plants, 1897,’ Lorin L. Dame,” F. 
Floyd. 
Liparis Loeselii (L.) Richard. ‘‘Near the Cliff, one plant, 
1888, and Monomoy, about a dozen plants, 1891,’ Miss Mary 
Foster Coffin,” F. G. Floyd. 
Salix tristts Ait. On the north side of the island observed 
only near Capaum Pond, a single patch. 
Salix petiolaris Sm. A second locality is Trot’s Swamp, I910. 
SALIX BEBBIANA X CINEREA? A willow collected in Tom 
Never’s swamp, June 3, 1908, growing with other willows, includ- 
ing the tree of Salix cinerea that is established there, and also 
Salix Bebbiana, quite unmistakably, I think, shows in combina- 
tion leaf and branch characters of both these species as well as 
other evidences of being a hybrid. 
Another ambiguous willow collected near Gibbs’ Pond, Septem- 
ber 19, 1899, is strongly suggestive of a cross between Salix erio- 
cephala and S. Smithiana, both in the shape of the leaves and 
their dense velvety pubescence. 
Myrica Gale L. A second station is by a tidal pond near 
Abraham’s Point where a thick cluster six feet across and three 
feet in height was observed June 7, 1911, no specimens being taken. 
In specimens collected at the Capaum Pond station, September 12, 
1907, the leaves are either wholly glabrous beneath or with some 
obscure pubescence on the midrib near the base. But specimens 
in the herbarium of Miss Gardner collected at the same station, 
August 2I, 1915, are more or less evidently pubescent on the 
lower surface. I do not know, therefore, whether an exact deter- 
mination of the Nantucket plant would place it with the typical 
form of the species or with var. subglabra (Chevalier) Fernald 
(Rhodora 16: 167. 1914).
