Harper : Coastal plain plants in Georgia 689 



/ 



acquainted with grows sparingly in the Meansville flatwoods. At 

 the known stations for it in the coastal plain it is associated with 

 a good many species which range as far inland as this, and there 

 is no known reason why it should not do likewise. 



A. 



Tkiadenum petiolatum (Walt.) Britton. 



In a creek swamp about two miles north of Zebulon, Septem- 

 ber 19. Professor F. S. Earle reports it from Tallapoosa County, 

 Alabama (which is mostly in the metamorphic region), but with that 

 possible exception it seems to have been known only from the 

 coastal plain before. 



ASCYRUM STANS Michx. 



t 



In the Meansville flatwoods, also in a sort of natural meadow 

 about two miles east of Senoia, Coweta Co., which I visited on 

 September 22. Rare at both places. I had previously seen it in 

 Marshall and Clay counties, Alabama, but not in the Piedmont 



+ 



region of either state. 



Ilex glabra (L.) A. Gray. 



This is common in nearly all parts of the coastal plain in Georgia 

 and frequent in southern Alabama, but it had apparently never 



- 



been seen in the highlands of either state by a botanist until Mr. 

 C. L. Boynton found it near Carrollton, Ga., several years ago. 

 Last year I found many small bushes, some with fruit, around the 

 edges of the low pine woods or flatwoods near Meansville (;/<?. 

 22^/). I have heard some rumors of its occurrence in Coweta 

 County also. 



CyRILLA RACEMIFLORA L. 



On the banks of Big Potato Creek where it cuts through the 

 Pine Mountains in Pike County, which is probably a little farther 

 above the fall-line than this species had ever been seen before. f 



? Nymphaea FLUViATiLis Harper (Bull, Torrey Club 33: 234- 

 236. /. 2. 1906). 

 What seems to be this species occurs in Line Creek on the 



* See Ann. N. Y. Acad. Sci. ij : 209, 1906. It cannot be very common there, 

 for in January, 1904, I walked out from CarrolUon a few miles in several different 

 directions, bearing this species in mind, but I could not find a trace of it, though I 

 did see a good many species which commonly associate with it*
