AsAruM LEMMONI Wats. Imnhabits rock clefts and shady 
nooks. Sierra valley and northward, where also it was collected 
by Mrs. Austin, another zealous student of our native plants, to 
whom later I had the pleasure of having dedicated a fifth species 
of Astragalus from the top of Mt. Stanford near the Central Pa- 
cific railroad, as Astragalus Austinae. 
Oakland, California. 
POLYPODIUM SCOULERI 
This species occurs on a certain lone rock six miles south 
of Westport, Washington, in a fringe of timber along the beach; 
also on Alnus oregana. 
In his Fern Flora of Washington, in Fern Bulletin 11: 79, 
Professor Flett gives Gray’s Harbor, Piper, as locality and col- 
lector. Perhaps the above is the identical location. Professor 
Piper cites Pt. Granville, Conard; Fort Canby, Bruner, Octo- 
ber 29, 1881. Mr. M. W. Gorman reports another station at 
Tilamook Head, Oregon. The writer saw a potted specimen 
taken near Seaside, Oregon, in 1904. 
This makes five costal stations, the extretnes of which are 
about 150 miles apart. This is the costal analogue of P. hes- 
pertum Maxon, the mountain polypody.—A. S. FosTEr, West- 
port, Washington.
