says, "It is allied to B. sijiia)-rosiis, but lias a more loose and open panicle. 

 It is not described in tbe manuals, as it seems to lie introduced in only a 

 few places in this country."

 ■of the Genus Ilromns," published as bulletin 28 of the Division of 

 Agrostology. 



The plant seems to lie well esta!)lished in this locality. 



6. Hordeum piisilliim Nut. Tippecanoe County. 



This species was collected along the Wabash Railroad, east of La- 

 fayette, where it seems to be well established. 



It was first collected in 1!X)0 and specimens have been taken each 

 succeeding year. 



This species was pi'olialily introduced in refuse, tlirown out from 

 <-attle-cars. 



7. Tnuh'HCdntid hrciicdiilis Raf. Tippecanoe County.

 then show that it has become well established and is slowly spreading. 



10. Geratiiiim pvsslUinii Burm. f. Tippecanoe County. 



In the summer of 1!J(!2, tliis was found growing among the grass on 

 the Eslierlment Station grounds. 



This one collection, however, without any additional observations is 

 hardly enougli to admit it to the State flora. 



11. Aii<I)-osarc occidcntalis Pursli. Tippecanoe County. 



Found growing somewhat abundantly in lowland near Wea Creek. 



This is listed on page 600, of the Catalogue of the Flowering Plants 

 of Indiana, by Prof. Coulter, as a doubtful member of the State flora. 



Specimens of all the plants listed above have been deposited in the 

 herbarium of Indiana plants at Purdue University. 



In conclusion, the writer wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness to 

 Prof. Stanley Coultei-, for much kind help in his work, and to Prof A. S. 

 Hitchcock, of the Department of Agriculture, for help in the determina- 

 tion of the grasses.
