More Ferns from North Berkshire County 



I was much interested in E. J. Winslow's article, 



__ Northern Berkshire County, Mass.," which 



appeared in the January 1913 number of the American 

 Fern Journal; as I had also collected on Mount Grey- 

 lock July, 1908, last of May and early October, 1909, 

 and the latter part of May, 1910. The following species 

 of rare ferns were observed or collected, two or three 

 of which are not mentioned in Mr. Window's list. 



Polystichum Braunii: one fine plant in the Inner Hopper 

 also a few scattering plants along the stream In the Heart 

 of the Greylock, near the old Goodale house. Botn/ch- 



ium lancolatum angasti segment urn : two small plants 

 along the Hopper trail after leaving Bacon Park at base 

 of Stony Ledge. Lycopodium claratum monostachyon: 



not uncommon along the roadside from North Adams 



before entering the woods near the base of Mount 

 Williams; also in exposed places in the pasture on Stony 

 Ledge. Lycopodium selago: several fine plants on the 

 steep rocky mountainside descending to the Inner 

 Hopper from the North Adams wagon-road. Lyco- 

 podium tristachyon was also found. Selaginella opus: 

 in pastures near the old Goodale house in the Heart 

 of the Greylock.
