PLANTS NOT GIVEN IN COULTER's LIST.-" 



Dufing my collecting in Kosciusko County I have found seven plants not re- 

 ported in Coulter's List. On the sandy, low shore of Chapman's Lake, Kosciusko 

 County, I found, in 1894, (wo .'ipecimen.< only of Epilobium Adenocaulon Haussk. 

 Although growing very near each other they have a very different aspect, and so 

 far as I could judge from the manual description I had a specimen of E. glaiulu- 

 loaum Lehm., which Trelease says^^ does not occur in the United States. The 

 specimens were both sent to Dr. Trelease, and he writes me that they are both 

 E. adenscaulon, much as they appear different; and that E. adenscaulon is very 

 variable. So far as I can ascertain E. adenscaulon has never been found in In- 

 dians, with the exception of the two specimens I possess ; and it is interesting to 

 note that Beal & Wheeler- ^ do not list it from Michigan farther south than 

 Keewenaw County, the very northermost county of the Upper Peninsula. 



Anychia Capillacea DC, I have found in Kosciusko County in two places in 

 quite abundance — on the east shore of Tippecanoe Lake in woods, and in a simi- 

 lar situation in Winona Park, Winona Lake. The manuaF^ says, " More abun- 

 dant northward," but it is not given by Beal & Wheeler, as found in Michigan, 

 just north of us. Higley & Raddin** list it as found in Riverside, 111., Cook 

 County, but do not list it from Lake County, in their list of Cook County, 111., 

 and Lake County, Indiana, plants. 



Specimens of Bidens Beckii Torr. were found by me in 1893 in the slow waters 

 of the Tippecanoe River, near Warsaw, Kosciusko County. 1 could find no list 

 of any section in Indiana containing this species, and reported the same to Dr. 

 Jno. M. Coulter. Since then I have found it mentioned as rare in Lake County, 

 and by Bradner from Steuben County.-"' I failed to find it elsewhere, nor could 

 it be found in the same place the next year. 



I found, in 1894, a few specimens of Asclepias phytaloccoides Pursh. near 

 Chapman's Lake, Kosciusko County. It is not in Coulter's list, but I have since
