ADDITIONS, KEMAEKS AND OBSEEVATIONS. 



The first fourteen species of the following list are additions to our 

 State flora, and have not before been reported. 



Hieraciimi Pilosella L. 

 Door yards. Aurora, Ca^^uga county. C. Atwood, M. D. 

 This plant has been introduced from Europe, and is yet scarce and 

 perhaps not thoroughly established. 



Atriplex horteusis L. 



Eoadsides. High Bridge, Onondaga county. Mrs. S. M. Rust 

 and Mrs. C. Barnes. 



Probably a stray from cultivation, and perhaps not permanently 

 established. 



Amanita pantlierina DC. 



Thin woods. Saudlake, Rensselaer county. July. 



According to the figure and description of this species the pileus 

 is brown or brownish, but in all our specimens it is white or merely 

 tinged with brown on the disk. In other respects they agree so well 

 with the description that there can be no d(Hibt of their specific 

 identity. They aftbrd a striking instance of the tendency in some 

 of our American forms to depart from the color of the European 

 plant. The difierent character of its volva will distinguish it from 

 white forms of A. muscarius, and the warts on the pileus and annu- 

 lus on the stem will separate it from A. nivalis. 



Clitocybe phyllophila Fr. 



Among fallen leaves in woods. Karner. September. 



Clitocybe pithyophila Fr. 



Among fallen leaves in woods. Saudlake. 



Collybia aquosa Bull. 

 Among sphagnum. Karner. October. 



In our specimens the lamelh\i, instead of being rounded behind 

 and free, according to the descri[)tion of the species, are adnato or
