108 THIRTY-EIGHTH REPORT ON THE STATE MUSEUM. 
and in Canadice, Ontario county, it was found by Mr. D. Byron Waite 
growing on the “tops and sides of bare dry and sterile hills, and where 
low shrubs and moss abound.” 
HyDRANGEA ARBORESCENS, L. 
Wellsburg, Chemung county. #. A. Burt. 
POTAMOGETON Rossinsu, Oakes. 
Hudson river near Rhinebeck. H. Andrews. The plants were sterile 
as usual. 
HABENARIA ROTUNDIFOLIA, Rich. 
Turin, Lewis county. July. R. &. Hough. This is the second sealer 
in the State for this rare plant. Mr. Hough informs me that it is difficult 
to obtain perfect specimens of this plant, most of the flowers being 
injured, apparently by some insect. 
TRILLIUM GRANDIFLORUM, Salisd. v. VARIEGATUM, 
This interesting variety or form has the leaves petiolate and the petals 
variegated with green, which is usually in the form of a broad longi- 
tudinal stripe through the middle. It was discovered in dense woods 
near Jamesville, Onondaga county, by members of the Syracuse Botan- 
ical Club, and specimens were contributed to the Herbarium by Mrs. 
L. L. Goodrich and Mrs. 8S. M. Rust. It has also been found on 
Goat Island by Hon. G. W. Clinton. In the Jamesville locality it was 
associated with Trillium erectum and typical 7. grandiflorum. In one 
specimen communicated by Mrs. Goodrich the petioles originate near 
the ground, the stem being very short. They are about three and a half 
inches long and the peduncle is five inches long. In other specimens 
these parts are less elongated and the form appears to be merged into 
the type. The specimens indicate a coincidence between the petioles, 
peduncles and green color of the petals. Generally the longer petioles 
are accompanied by longer peduncles and broader green stripes on the 
petals. This coincidence between form and color is remarkable.

Juncus TriFiIDus, L. 
Sam’s Point, Shawangunk mountains. Prof. V. L. Britton. Probably 
this is the most southern station for this Juncus in our State. It occurs 
at Lake Mohunk and also on the high summits of the Adirondack 
mountains, 
SCIRPUS POLYPHYLLUS, Vahl. 
Catskill. G. W. Clinton. A rare species in our State. 
Scirpus syLvatTicus, L. 
Wet places about half a mile south-east of Loudonville. 
GLYCERIA FLUITANS, L. 
Caroga lake. The form with long flat linear floating leaves, suggestive 
of the specific name, is not rare in the lakes of the Adirondack region, 
but it is not always fertile. 
Asura caspitosa, L. 
Wet ground. Caroga. It was growing in company with 4. flexwosa 
which usually inhabits dry, rocky, sterile hills.
