Taxodium distichum (L.) Richard 

 Seen in several river-swamps in and adjacent to Southampton 

 County, Va., especially along the Blackwater, Chowan and 

 Mehenin rivers. Almost always associated, here as in Georgia, 

 with Nyssa uniflora, which has nearly the same range. 



Taxodium imbricarium (Nutt.) Harper 

 My hopes of seeing this species in Virginia were not realized, 

 but I noticed some fine specimens of it in a swamp at the southern 

 edge of Moore County, N. C, near Keyser, about 125 miles from 

 the coast. 



SCIRPUS ATROVIRENS Muhl. 



In ditches and meadows near Cary, Wake County, N. C, in 

 the Piedmont region. 



Hicoria aquatica (Michx. f.) Britton 

 Along the Mehenin River on the line* between Southampton 

 County, Va., and Northampton County, N. C. Stations for this 

 species so far north are probably rare enough to be worth men- 

 tioning. 



Quercus Catesbaei Michx. 



Common on the driest sand-hills of North Carolina, from 

 Walnut Grove southward. In Richmond County this with 

 Pinus palustris forms almost the only arborescent vegetation for 

 miles. Probably not reported so far inland in North Carolina 

 before. 



Quercus minor Margaretta Ashe 



With the preceding but less common. Noted especially be- 

 tween Vass and Niagara, Moore County, N. C. Very little has 

 been published concerning the exact distribution of this oak, so 

 the above record may be of some service. 



Sarracenia flava L. 



This species is so conspicuous and easily distinguished that I 



rarely fail to make a note of it wherever I see it. There is a little 



of it between Margarettsville and Seaboard in the coastal plain of 



North Carolina, a few miles south of the Virginia line, also near
