REMARKS AND OBSERVATIONS. 
Viola Selkirkii, Pursh. Plentiful in a pine grove near West Al- 
bany. The large pale blunt spur is a conspicuous feature in the 
flowers of this species. 
Hypericum mutilum, Z. A tall form, 12 to 15 in. high, with 
straight branches, occurs near Riverhead. Its cyme is leafy, and thus 
connects the variety gymnanthum with the typical form. 
Linum striatum, Walt. Wet banks near Newburgh. July. 
Hieracium yenosum var. subcaulescens, Gr. A form of this plant 
with the veins of the leayes uncolored was found near Wading River. 
It was in full flower in September. 
Lycopus Europeus var. sessilifolius, Gr. Near Riverhead. 
Convolvulus arvensis, 2. Fields near Newburgh. 
Polygonum Hartwrightii, Gr. Flowering specimens were found 
on the shore of the ‘‘ Green Lake” west of Jamesville. In all the 
specimens seen the peduncle was axillary, not terminalas in P. am- 
phibium. 
Quercus Phellos, Z. ‘Tottenville. Britton. 
Potamogeton amplifolius, Zuckm. Thompson’s Lake, Helderberg 
mountains, and near Warwick, Orange county. 
Potamogeton gramineus var. heterophyllus, /r. Thompson’s Lake, 
also “Green Lake” near Jamesville. In low muddy places east of 
the latter lake it forms a dense carpet over the surface of the ground. 
Potamogeton, Robbinsii, Oakes. Ballston Lake. July. Though the 
plants were abundant and the flowering spikes numerous, the stems 
being sometimes excessively branched above, no good fruit could be 
found. ‘The plants grow at the head of the lake in company with 
Potamogeton™ lonchites, P. perfoliatus, P. compressus, P. hybridus, 
P. Claytonii, P. pectinatus and Lidens Beekii.

Center. : 
Hemerocallis fulva, Z. Banks of streams in fields. Guilderland, 
Escaped from gardens, but thriving without cultivation. 
Juncus maritimus Lam. This rush was found some years ago on 
Coney Island. Specimens were collected there again the past season by 
Mr, N. L. Britton, thus showing that it is still maintaining its foot- 
hold amid the march of improvement on that island. 
Carex tentaculata var. altior, Boott. (C. Purshit Olney.) Charlton 
and North Greenbush. 
Carex intumescens, Rudge. Helderberg mountains. A starved form

by Pursh in 1807, Specimens *collected in this locality by Mrs. 
Leavenworth were kindly contributed by Mrs. MU. J. Myers. It we
