Notes oN AMERICAN FERNS 3 
It may now be reported from ‘‘meadows in the sand 
dune region, Coos County, Oregon.’ The specimens, 
in the National Herbarium, were collected September 8, 
1912, by H. D. House (No. 5001). 
Tue DiIstTRIBUTION OF LycoPpODIUM SABINAEFOLIUM 
Wi.ip.—The characters of this species having become 
fairly well understood in recent years, it was to be ex- 
pected that its known range would be somewhat ex- 
tended and filled in. Of more than ordinary interest, 
however, is the receipt of excellent specimens from Dr. 
J. V. Haberer, collected by him (No. 2550), October 28, 
1911, in the vicinity of Hinckley, Oneida County, New 
York, in a small ravine, in the shade of spruce and hem- 
lock. This station, which is at the edge of the Adirondac 
region, seems to be a new one, the only other New York 
locality apparently being on Staten Island (Buchheister), 
mentioned in the seventh edition of Gray’s Manual. 
The species is not listed by Gilbert, in his article upon 
the fern flora of New York State.! 
The unfortunate confusion of this species with L. 
sitchense Rupr. makes many of the earlier records unreli- 
able, unless substantiated by specimens, even from ac- 
cessible localities, so that unusual importance attaches 
to records which may be regarded as authentic. In 
their revision of 1900 Lloyd and Underwood? list speci- 
mens, which they had studied, from Maine, Ontario, 
Vermont, and Prince Edward Island. The several Maine 
and Vermont records are, of course, well known and 
have received frequent mention in recent literature. 
Fernald and Wiegand? list it from Westfield, New 
Brunswick, stating that it was “previously known 
from the upper St. John.” It has been found also in 
1 Fern Bull. 11: 98-105. 1903. 
2 Bull. Torrey Club 27: 164. 1900. 
3 Rhodora 12: 133. 1910.
