the southeastern coastal plain, while the plant with pubescent, 

 flat leaves is the only one represented in the north, it seems best 

 to consider these two geographically correlated races as sub- 

 species. 



Carex cumulata (Bailey) Mackenzie. Fulton Co. : Glovers- 

 ville, Ollson. Ulster Co.: bog near IVIaratanza Lake, 1935, M & 

 Cu 5164. Cited by Mackenzie (1922) from Albany, Dutchess, 

 Oneida, and Washington Counties. 



Cyperus ferax Rich. Bronx Co. : sandy beach, City Island, 

 1918, A. Gershoy, Greene Co.: on sand bar in Hudson River 

 between Hudson and Athens, 1935, AI & C 4366. Montgomery 

 Co.: Yosts, 1935, M & C 4605. Onondaga Co.: Salina, G. W. 

 Clinton; Syracuse salt marsh, 1902, K. M. Wiegand 16. Queens 

 Co.: wet sand in salt marsh, Jamaica, 1929, W. C. Ferguson 

 8058. Reported by House (1924) only from Suffolk Co., but by 

 Wiegand and Eames (1926) as locally frequent in the Cayuga 

 Lake Basin. 



Eleocharis obtusa var. jejuna Fernald. (See Svenson in 

 Rhodora 31: 215-216. 1929.) Tioga Co.: edge of small, muddy 

 pool near Spencer Lake, 1935, C 2050. 



As Svenson (1. c.) states, this appears to be an ecological 

 phase of the species and probably does not merit nomencla- 

 torial recognition. The collection cited is apparently the first 

 for New York. 



Stexophyllus capillaris (L.) Britton. Cayuga Co. : Far- 

 leys, 1938, C & S 3521; Willets, 1927, M & P. R. Burkholder 

 16925. Cortland Co.: Chicago (Gracie) Station, 1929, K. M. 

 Wiegand 17359. Tompkins Co.: Varna, 1935, C 2048. Although 

 reported from only one locality by Wiegand and Eames (1926), 

 this species has greatly increased in recent years and now is 

 widespread and fairly common in the cinders along railroads 

 throughout the Cayuga Lake region. 



Xyris MONTANA H. Ries. Sullivan Co.: floating sphagnum 

 bog. Amber Lake, 1935, M & Cu 5175. Not recorded from south- 

 ern New York by Taylor (1915) or House (1924). 



Uvularia perfoliata L. Ontario Co. : Bristol Springs, 1938, 

 C 3432. 



This collection is interesting because it represents a varie- 

 gated foliage variety. All of the plants in a large patch on the 

 south slope of the ravine south of Bristol Springs were varie-
