Dipsacus laciniatus L. 



Near Beaver park, Albany. August. This is a recently intro- 

 duced species but it appears to be well established here but being 

 w^ithin the city limits it may not persist many years. It may be 

 distinguished from the common teasel, D. sylvestris, by its 

 laciniate or pinnatifid leaves. Its flowers are paler than in that 

 species. 



Eocronartium typhuloides Atk. 



Living moss, Anomodon attenuatus. Cascadilla 

 woods near Ithaca. July. G. F. Atkinson. 



Falcata pitcheri (T. & G.) Kuntze 

 North Greenbush and West Albany. This species is not very 

 unlike F. comosa, (Amphicarpaea monoica of the 

 older botanies) with which it was formerly united. It is chiefly 

 distinguished by its larger leaves and the tawny villosity of its 

 stem.
