434 Tayvtor: LocAL FLORA NOTES 
22. Listera cordata (L.) R. Br. New Durham, N. J., and 
Wayne Co., Pa. are the only places within the range from which 
the plant has been collected, and it is apparently not known to 
the writers of local floras that bear on our region. The new 
Connecticut list makes no mention of the plant. The Pennsyl- 
vania flora has only the Wayne Co. station. A general range of 
from Labrador to New Jersey would argue a more extended rep- 
resentation than our limited collections show. It should be found 
in the Catskills. 
23. Listera australis Lindl. A single specimen from a swamp 
southwest of Camden, N. J., is all there is to show for the range 
of this species. The New Jersey and Philadelphia lists both give 
another station, at New Brunswick, N. J. Otherwise, the dis- 
tribution of the plant is unknown save for one station in Chester 
Co., Pa. The general range of from New York and New Jersey 
to Florida is scarcely borne out by our scanty material. 
24. Gyrostachys stricta Rydb. No specimens from the range. 
General works credit it to our area, but apparently the only specifi- 
cally recorded station is Norfolk, Conn. It is probably to be found 
in the adjacent mountains along the eastern edge of Columbia Co., 
N. Y., and perhaps also in the Catskills. 
25. Gyrostachys plantaginea (Raf.) Britton. Our only speci- 
men is from Flatbrookville, Sussex Co., N. J. Other recorded 
stations seem to indicate that so far as our local flora range is 
concerned the plant is confined to the Delaware River Valley, 
or its branches. Is this a correct assumption? 
26. Peramium ophioides (Fernald) Rydb. So far as the speci- 
mens show, this plant is confined to the higher Catskills and the 
mountains of Pennsylvania. So far as known, it has never been 
reported from New Jersey but might be looked for in the northern 
hilly part of the state. P. tesselatum (Lodd.) Rydb. has a similar 
range and is restricted in the same way. Can either of the plants 
be found at an elevation less than 1,000 ft.? 
27. Achroanthes monophylla (L.) Greene. With the single 
exception of Sam’s Point, Ulster Co., N. Y., for which there is a 
specimen, the only recorded station for this species is Wayne Co., 
Pa. It is curious that the plant should not have been found in 
Delaware and Greene counties, N. Y.
