, Campanula rapunculoides L., the Creeping Bellwort, was re- 

 cently located at the old Smith chemical works, in the park. Of 

 course, it is an adventive, originally coming from Eurasia. 



Claytonia virginica L., Cardamine Douglassii (Torr.) Brit- 

 ton., Carex pedunculata Muhl., and Erigeron pulchellus Michx., 

 are four species which seem to have been overlooked in the com- 

 pilation of the park flora list. This fact is readily explainable 

 because few if any botanically-minded persons have visited the 

 park during the very early spring. 



Antennaria plantaginifolia (L.) Richards, was located during 

 June 1934 in two places in the park. 



Equisetum limosum L., the Swamp Horsetail, may now be 

 considered as a shore-line floral component of the artificial Red 

 House Lake. 



Arisaema Dracontium (L.) Schott., the Green Dragon, is in- 

 teresting because, as far as the records go, it was not relocated, 

 until recently, along the Allegany River since David F. Day 

 found it in 1882. At the present time, we know it from a number 

 of stations from Salamanca southward. 



Acer saccharum Marsh, var. nigrum (Michx. f.) Britton., is 

 represented by three or four known specimens in the park. 

 Whereas the bark, lenticels, and the shape of the leaves are 

 characteristic of the Black Maple, the pubescence on the leaves 

 is not as dense as ordinarily encountered. 



One of the big features of a game management plan, recently 

 inaugurated in Allegany State Park, is the planting of game 

 food plants in various parts of the area. In this connection, a 

 number of species have been put out which are not native to 

 this park and it is thought highly desirable to mention these to 

 avoid confusion arising in anyone's mind when finding these 

 strangers way back in some valley slashing or meadow. 



These plants are: Juglans nigra L., Aronia arbutifolia (L.) 

 Ell., Cornus stolonifera Michx., the variety incisifolia of Sam- 

 bucus canadensis L., Betula alba L. var. papyrifera (Marsh.) 

 Spach., and Cephalanthus occidentalis L. 



Some herbaceous plants introduced on the nature trail, near 

 the Administration Building and around the margins of Red 

 House Lake are; Valeriana uliginosa (T. & G.) Rydb., Brasenia 

 Shreberi Gmel., Mitella nuda L.; Parnassia caroliniana Michx., 

 Viola renifolia Gray., Nymphaea advena Ait., Peltandra vir-
