78 PRETZ: FLorA OF LEHIGH CouUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA 
Lycopodium annotinum L. This species has been collected by: 
the writer at an altitude of approximately 400 m., in a ravine on 
Broad Mountain, near Nesquehoning, Carbon County, facing 
south. Porter collected it in the Poconos, and its extension 
southeast along the Kittatinny Range is not unreasonable. 
Lycopodium tristachyum Pursh. There are apparently no 
records for this species in eastern Pennsylvania southeast of the 
mountains, but in the Flora Cestrica, under the species L. com- 
_planatum, occurs the following footnote: 
“Obs. My friend, Josaua Hoopss, finds specimens on our 
slaty hills, which he regards as almost specifically distinct,—having 
trailing stems mostly buried and rhizome-like, the branches of a 
brighter green, the ultimate branchlets not so coarse, and twice as 
numerous, while the spores are matured two or three months earlier 
than the common form.” 
What was this plant that Joshua Hoopes observed in Chester 
County, Pennsylvania? The seventh edition of the Gray Manual 
gives the range of this species as “Me. to Del., etc.’ Its occur- 
rence in the county would not be surprising. 
Selaginella rupestris (L.) Spring. Records show this species 
to occur in Pike, Monroe, Northampton, Berks, Chester, Lan- 
caster, and Bucks counties in Pennsylvania. There is as yet no 
record for Lehigh.
