about two and one-half miles south of Brownstown. A tree is still 
standing on a ridge about two and one-half miles south of Bedford 
in Lawrence County. This tree was evidently very rare in our arez 
since many inquiries about it resulted in negative answers. This 
tree is so conspicuous that if it had existed the pioneers would have 
remembered it. In both places where it is found I was told by old 
men that the fruit put into whiskey was used for medicine. This 
fact alone would have stimulated a search for it and left historical 
evidence of its existence. 
Maius ioensis (Wood) Britton. Wuiitp Cras. I now have this 
species from Huntington County on the high bluffs of the Salamonie 
River about a half-mile west of New Lancaster; from the bluff of 
Tippecanoe River in Tippecanoe County about a half-mile south of 
the White County line; and from high land in Vigo, Sullivan and 
Knox Counties. 
Crategus. Rep Haws. The species of this genus can be recog- 
nized only with difficulty. Several species new to Indiana have been 
collected, but they are shrubs of little economic importance, and 
discussion of the genus is reserved for future publication. 
Iiex decidua Walter. This species was found along Cypress Creek 
in Warrick County. 
Aesculus octandra Marshall. Buckryr. I have found specimens 
in beech woods back of the bluffs of the Ohio River at Leavenworth 
in Crawford County. 
Tilia heterephylla (Ventenat) Linneus. I have taken specimens 
of this species in Dearborn County near the Ohio River; in Ripley 
County along Laugherty Creek near Versailles and westward through 
Perry County. 
Oxydendrum aboreum (Linnzeus) DeCandolle. Sour woop. <A 
few trees were found June 3, 1918, near the base of a beech slope in 
Perry County about eight miles southeast of Cannelton. The 
largest tree of the group measured about six inches in diameter and 
was about forty feet high. 
Fraxinus biltmoreana Beadle. Wuirr AsH. BrurmMorr AsH. The 
known range of this species has been extended to include the southern 
part of Wells County, where it is associated with white ash and equals 
it in size. In Indiana it is usually found in dryer situations than 
white ash and becomes one of our tallest forest trees. The best 
examples seen are located in the Water’s woods about two miles 
north of Owensville in Gibson County. The terminal bud scales of 
the white and Biltmore ash are as broad or broader than long and
