ARCEUTHOBIUM PUSILLUM Pk. 
Kasoag, Oswego county; also Providence, Saratoga 
county, thus making five counties in the State in which 
_ this plant has been found. In all these localities it inhabits 
spruces in low grounds or marshes. At Kasoag there are 
a few dead trees giving evidence of having been inhabited 
by this parasite to which possibly their death is due. 
ABIES BALSAMEA Marshall. 
This occurs in the Stony Clove, Catskill Mountains, in a 
prostrate or ascending bush-like form resembling the com- 
mon juniper, the American yew and the prostrate form of 
the black spruce as it is found on the high Adirondack 
summits.
