ADDITIONAL NOTES FROM WILLOUGHBY. Willoughby has its sur- 

 prises even for one who has studied its Flora carefully, and in the 

 last ten days of the present month I have collected some new plants 

 and found stations for other rare ones and I therefore print this note. 



Equisetum pratense, Ehrh. In wet pasture land, by the edge of woods, very 

 near the Hotel. This plant as noted by Eaton (RHODORA, vi. 92) is rare 

 in New England, having been found only in the Kennebec valley, Maine; 

 and its occurrence at Willoughby is an interesting extention of range. 

 Only sterile plants were found, but in considerable quantity and it may 

 have been overlooked by summer botanists in the luxuriant growth of 

 ferns and grasses. The rough ridges of the stem thickly set with fine 

 spicula under a lens are so different" from other New England Equiseta 

 as to render its identification comparatively easy. 



Carex dcflexa, Hornem., var. Deanei, Bailey. On the beach at south end of 

 the lake. 



Rosa CINNAMOMEA, L. Grows in wild abundance in pasture by an old 

 cellar wall. 



Rosa, blanda, Ait., which is very smooth without prickles when 

 growing on the slides, shows frequent spines and prickles when 

 gathered on the Lake roadside. 



Carex vaginata, Tausch, found by Pringle, and Smilacina trifolia, 

 Desf., collected by Churchill, and both plants unsuccessfully sought 

 for by other botanists, were found growing in a cedar swamp, quite 

 near the original stations below the Four Bridges. George G. 

 Kennedy.
