REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST I907 1 7 



SPECIES NOT BEFORE REPORTED 



Ajuga reptans L. 



In waste grassy places. Remsen, Oneida co. June. Introduced 

 from Europe and sparingly naturalized. 



Biatora prasina Fr. 



Bark of sugar maple, Acer s a c c h a r u m L. Shushan, 

 Washington co. March. Frank Dobbin. 



Biatorella simplex (Dav.) B. & R. 



Rocks. Helderberg mountains. July. S. H. Burnham. This is 

 Lecanora privigna ( Ach.) Nyl. 



Boletus niveus Fr. 



Sandy soil. Karner, Albany co. August. This has by some 

 been considered a white variety of Boletus scaber Fr. It 

 appears to us to be worthy of specific distinction, for it dififers from 

 that species not only in the color of the pileus but also in its smaller 

 tubes and in the character of the stem, which is adorned with mere 

 scurfy or appressed squamules instead of the conspicuous dotlike 

 fibrous scales of the stem of B. scaber. 



Centaurea solstitialis L. 



Linden, Genesee co. August. W. E. Harding. This plant was 

 introduced from Europe into California many years ago. Whether 

 the plant has come here from the west or is the result of a more 

 recent introduction from Europe is uncertain. 



Cetraria glauca (L.) Ach. 



On dead hemlock, Tsuga canaden-sis Carr. Panther 

 mountain, Essex co. June. J\Irs C. W. Harris. 



Chaetomium sphaerospermum C. & E. 



Bottom of a barrel standing in a damp cellar. Menands, Albany 

 CO. September. The spores in our specimens vary from globose 

 to broadly elliptic and from .0003-.0004 of an inch in diameter.
