84 TWENTY-EIGHTH REPORT ON THE STATE MUSEUM. 
ARIS@MA TRIPHYLLUM TZo77. 
This plant with us is quite constantly dicecious. During 
two or three successive seasons I have examined scores of 
plants in various localities in the vain effort to find a speci- 
men with moncecious inflorescence. Can it be that the 
moneecious character is giving way, under altered climatic 
conditions, to a dicecious one ? 
TRILLIUM ERECTUM V. ALBUM Pursh. 
Ithaca. Prof. Prentiss. 
ALLIUM CANADENSE Aalm. 
Alluvial banks of the Hudson. North Greenbush. June. 
SCLERIA VERTICILLATA Juhl. 
Near Woodside, Long Island. Avuger. Mr. Kruger 
observes that the fresh plant has a pleasant vanilla-like 
odor. Rev. J. A. Paine also speaks of its fragrance. 
ORYZOPSIS CANADENSIS TZorr. 
Sandy soil near Center. 
POA ALSODES Gray. 
Shaded banks. Catskill Mountains. 
MILLIUM EFFUSUM JL. 
- Stony Clove, Catskill Mountains. 
PANICUM AGROSTOIDES Spreng. 
Near Northampton, Fulton county. 
ASPIDIUM NOVEBORACENSE V. FRAGRANS. 
New Pond, Essex county. Mrs. L. A. Millington. Mrs. 
Millington observes that the fronds are very tall, “some- 
times three feet high,” that the sori at length spread over 
the whole under surface and that there is a marked vanilla- 
like odor which persists even in the dried specimens. 
LYGODIUM PALMATUM Sw. 
Hunter. This, so far as I know, is the only New York 
station for this rare fern. The credit of its discovery 
belongs, I believe, to Wiss WM. C. Reynolds. Fertile speci- 
mens have been sent me by Mr. J. 7. Lockwood.
