Carex sparganioides Muhl. 
Jamesville. H.D. House. No. 1293. 
Cythera bulbosa (Linn.) House 
(Calypso borealis Salisb.) 
One of the rarest of our native orchids, occurring in but few 
localities. It was discovered at Jordanville swamp, Herkimer 
county, by J. A. Paine, jr, in 1866, and collected there many years 
later by Dr J. V. Haberer; near Rome many years ago by Mr 
Bingham and near Otisco, Onondaga county, several years ago by 
Samuel Cole. The other Onondaga county station is or was Lodi 
swamp near Syracuse (House, no. 1108, 1905). The latter station 
is probably now obliterated by the encroaching manufacturing dis- 
trict, and with its passing, which is sincerely regretted by many 
botanists, disappears one of the most interesting localities, botani- 
cally known in the State. It was the home of many rare species, 
among them being:
