36 Thirty-sixth Eeport on the State Museum. 



Carex flaccosperma, Deiv. - 



South Hill, Ithaca. Dudley. A stout form of Carex laxifiora 

 var. intermedia sometimes occurs about Albany, which resembles 

 this species in general aspect but it is readily distinguished from 

 it by its much longer scales and different perigynia. 



Asplenium ebenoides, R. R. Scott. 



Near Saugerties, Ulster county. Growing on limestone rocks 

 in company with the walking fern, Camptosorus rJiizophyllus. C. 

 Lown. Mr. Lown had previously found a few specimens of this 

 extremely rare fern about four miles south-east of Poughkeepsie. 

 In this case as in all others it was associated with Oamjitosorus 

 rJiizopliylhis and Asplenium eheneum, the three growing within a 

 foot of each other. In the Saugerties locality the Asplenium 

 ehejieum, though present, was several feet distant. 



Sedfm acre, L. 



Roadside, Petersburgh. Escaped from cultivation and spar- 

 ingly naturalized. 



Sagittaria pusilla, Nlltt. 



In the New York Flora this species is recorded as occurring on 

 " muddy banks of the Hudson where the water is brackish, as at 

 West Point and Peekskill." The habitat attributed to it in the 

 Manual is, "inundated shores, from eastern New Jersey and 

 Philadelphia southward near the coast." It was recently detected 

 by Mr. H. N. Johnsoji along the river shore at Ooeymans, a few 

 miles below Albany. This is a long distance from the usual sta- 

 tions of the plant and far above the reach of brackish water. 



Thalictrum anemonoides, Mx. 



Ooeymans. Johnson. This species manifests a strong disposi- 

 tion to produce double flowers. A few years ago Mr. Johnson 

 took some of the plants from their native habitat and set them in 

 his garden. The past season they developed double flowers. The 

 exterior sepals are green and bract-like, but the inner, which are 

 numerous, are white and petal-like. No stamens exist in any of 

 the flowers and no pistils in some, thus indicating that the sta- 

 mens have been transformed into petals. 



Altssum caltcinum, L. 



University grounds, Ithaca. Introduced. Dudley. 

 Draba arabisans, Mx. 



Esty Glen and shore of Cayuga lake. Dudley.
