  In 
  the 
  Catalogue 
  

   of 
  the 
  Flora 
  of 
  Minnesota, 
  by 
  Warren 
  Upham, 
  1884, 
  this 
  

   species 
  is 
  noted 
  as 
  "an 
  immigrant 
  from 
  the 
  plains 
  west 
  of 
  

   Minnesota," 
  and 
  is 
  reported 
  only 
  from 
  the 
  southwestern 
  

   corner 
  of 
  the 
  state. 
  It 
  is 
  a 
  common 
  plant 
  in 
  the 
  neighbor- 
  

   hood 
  of 
  White 
  Sand 
  lake, 
  three 
  miles 
  west 
  of 
  Brainerd, 
  

   where 
  it 
  appears 
  to 
  have 
  been 
  introduced 
  first 
  along 
  the 
  line 
  

   of 
  the 
  Northern 
  Pacific

  Arenaria

  — 
  Never 
  before 
  reported 
  from 
  

   Minnesota. 
  Undoubted 
  specimens 
  of 
  this 
  plant 
  were 
  col- 
  

   lected 
  on 
  the 
  north 
  shore 
  of 
  White 
  Sand 
  lake, 
  where, 
  bow- 
  

   ever, 
  it 
  is 
  by 
  no 
  means 
  abundant. 
  The 
  range

   given 
  in 
  the

  Va. 
  to

  Kan, 
  and 
  southward." 
  Its 
  presence, 
  therefore, 
  in 
  Cass 
  

   county, 
  Minnesota, 
  is 
  somewhat 
  remarkable. 
  It 
  does 
  not 
  

   have 
  the 
  appearance 
  of 
  a 
  recent 
  introduction.
