C. rosea, Schk. Lake Winnipeg, and Carlton House. 
C. stipata, Muh. Norway House. 
C. multiflora, Muh. Canada and Cumberland House. Large 
and excellent. 
*C. chordorrhiza, L. Columbia River. Exactly the European, 
but not before found in our country. 
*C. stenophylla, Wahl. Rocky Mts. and Carlton House. This 
is a small species withandrogynous spikes which are staminate at the 
apex. It isa’well characterized species, now first found in America. 
C. teretiuscula, Gooden. Rocky Mts., Norway House and Cum- 
berland House. These are mostly small, but distinct specimens. 
C. Muhlenbergii, Schk. Hudson’s Bay. A fine large speci- 
men. 
C. disperma, Dewey. Norway House, Rocky Mts. and Cum- 
berland House. Many specimens, some small, and some of the size 
found in the northern States. 
C. Deweyana, Schw. Rocky Mts. Canada, Cumberland House, 
and Carlton House. There were many and large specimens, exactly 
like those of the northern States. 
C. trisperma, Dewey. Rocky Mts. fine and large. This has 
been supposed to be the following, but the present specimens settle 
the matter against such a supposition. 
C. loliacea, LL. Cumberland House. This is also C. gracilis, 
and C. tenella, as well as C. loliacea, in Schk. It greatly resembles 
C. disperma, but the fertile flowers are differently situated, being in 
C. loliacea at the base of the spikelets, as on C. trisperma. But 
the fruit is shorter and rounder and more obtuse than on C. disper- 
ma, and far more so than on C. trisperma. One can scarcely see 
this plant without being convinced of its being identical with that de- 
scribed in Schk. I have not before seen one that belonged to this 
Species in our country. 
C. scoparia, Schk. Carlton House and L. Winnipeg. 
*C. leporina, L. Rocky Mts. and Norway House. This is the 
C. ovalis of Gooden., and the C. Jeporina found in Sweden and Nor- 
way. It has not before been brought to light here ; although credited 
by Mx. and Ph., who doubtless intended the preceding. No one 
however can compare these species with those from Sweden, with- 
out feeling confident that the true C. Jeporina of Lin. has at length 
been found in the Northern regions of America.
