He reports it in Buffalo not far from his home on Amherst 

 Street. It is interesting to note that at times it is the only 

 orchid in the station, again is on orchid banks where occur 

 Limnorchis hyperborea, Galeorchis spectahilis, the Cypripedia, 

 and Malaxis monophylla, which last has proved much more 

 common than was supposed, at least three stations having been 

 found, where it is not infrequent. 



We have an abundance of Cypripedium reginae, parviflorum, 

 puhescens, less of C. acaule {C. candidum was here but has not 

 been found by me), Galeorchis spectahilis, occasional Gymnadeni- 

 opsis clavellata (3 stations in this county), occasional Blephari- 

 glottis lacera and Lysias orbiculata, considerable Limnorchis 

 hyperborea, an abundance of Ibidium plantagineum, considerable 

 Corallorrhiza maculata. Once I have found Liparis Loeselii, 

 once Malaxis unifolia, and the present September three plants 

 of Corallorrhiza odontorhiza. Lysias Hookeriana is well estab- 

 lished in two places, over 50 plants in one station and about 

 40 in another, less than 6 in the third. Blephariglottis psycodes 

 is common. Collins is credited also with having B. peramoena 

 and B. fimbriata formerly, but I have not found them. Lim- 

 norchis dilatata has been found twice, but not recently, on the 

 Indian Reservation. 



Undoubtedly intensive search of the swamps would reveal 

 much more, as to date I have found three not hitherto reported 

 in Erie County, viz, Malaxis unifolia, Gymnadeniopsis clavellata, 

 Corallorrhiza odontorhiza; and Lysias Hookeriana which had 

 been lost to the County for many years. 



Ibidium Romanzoffianum, I. gracile and Ophrys australis are 

 credited to Erie County by Dr. House in his Annotated List, 

 published in 1924.
