in May. In appearance it resembles the western A. c a m - 



p e s t r i s Rydb. 



Boletus nebulosus Pk. 



In State Museum report 51, page 292 a description of this 



species was published, but it was derived from mature specimens, 



no examples of the young plant having at that time been seen. 



Young specimens were found near Lake Pleasant in August. The 



pileus in them is hemispheric, soon becoming convex and is dark 



gray becoming brown with age. The tubes are at first closed and 



pallid or brownish. The stem is sometimes pointed at the base 



and varied above with pale streaks. 



Cantharellus cibarius longipes n. var. 

 Pileus irregular, lobed or wavy on the margin, often centrally 

 depressed and rimose squamose; lamellae very narrow, crowded, 

 strongly decurrent, frequently anastomosing; stem long, its length 

 equal to or exceeding the diameter of the pileus. In groves of 

 spruce and balsam fir. North Elba. September. 



Cortinarius amarus Pk. 

 A form of this species was found having the stem 2-3 inches long. 

 It grows under spruce and balsam firtrees in North Elba, and is 

 easily recognized by its small, irregular, yellow, viscid pileus and 

 its very bitter flavor. 



Dalibarda repens L. 



Fine specimens of this pretty little plant were found by the 

 roadside between Minerva and Aiden Lair. These have several 

 short peduncles bearing mature seeds and one or two long ones 

 now, July 24, bearing flowers. The early flowers were evidently 

 clistogamic and very fruitful. 



Eriophorum alpinum L. 

 Along the roadside 2 miles south of Aiden Lair. This little 

 alpine cotton grass is rare in our State and it is interesting to 

 find it maintaining itself along the side of a much used public 

 highway. 



Hydnum graveolens subzonatum n. var. 



Pileus thin, nearly plane, slightly umbilicate, fibrously radiate 

 Rtriate, zonate with narrow, slightly darker zones, fuscous or 

 grayish brown ; aculei whitish.
