4- Cryptantha flaccida (Dougl.) Greene (no. 45 of list in 

 Torreya 18: 225. 1918) reported from Salem, has also been 

 found in gravel along the railroad-track at Tonquin, Washington 

 Co., appearing as if introduced at both stations. 



5. Cynoglossum officinale L., reported from Mill City (no. 

 103 of list in Torreya 18: 29. 1918) is now abundant in low- 

 woods and pastures along the Santiam for a distance of 20 

 miles below Mill City, and threatens to become as troublesome 

 a pest as it is in the Eastern States. 



6. Nicotiana attennata Torr., previously reported in these 

 lists only from the shores of the Columbia, was found in gravel 

 in the State Fair Ground at Salem. 



7. Mimulus pilosus (Benth.) Wats., a species of the interior, 

 reported from west of the Cascades only from Vancouver Island 

 (Fl. N. W. Coast 324) was collected on the sandy shore of the 

 Columbia at Columbia Beach, Multnomah Co. 



8. Bidens frondosa L. (no. 137 of the list in Torreya 18: 31. 

 1 91 8) seems to be 5. vulgata Greene as far as the plant so common 

 along the Willamette at Salem is concerned ; but true B . frondosa 

 occurs on the shore of the Columbia on Hayden Island, according 

 to the determination by Dr. E. E. Sherff. 



9. Artemisia ludoviciana Nutt. (no. 85 of the list in Torreya 

 20: 44. 1920) seems as far as the North Santiam plant is con- 

 cerned to be ^. Tilesii Ledeb.; but the Portland plant is true 

 ludoviciana. 



My sincere thanks are again due to all the botanists named 

 above who have so kindly assisted me in the determination of 

 difficult and unfamiliar specimens. Specimens of most of the 

 above have been deposited either in the Gray Herbarium or that 

 of the Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences.

SHORTER NOTES 

 AN UNRECORDED WEED IN BERMUDA 



While Professor H. H. Whetzel was studying the plants of 

 Bermuda with especial reference to fungi in 1922, he collected 

 some flowering plants and handed the specimens to Professor 

 L. H. Bailey, who gave me some of them. Among these was a 

 crucifer collected in an onion field in Paget, March 6, 1922, (No.
