rated by the purple hairs of the stem, though these are sometimes 

 few and scattered and easily oyer looked. The plants of the 

 Keene locality grew on a moist, partly shaded bank near the 

 Willey house and are larger than the others. 



Antennaria petaloidea Fern. 

 In a recent clearing. North Elba, Essex co. June. 



Plantago halophila Bickn. 



Sandy soil near Eastport, Suffolk co. and near Saranac lake, 

 Franklin co. September. This plantain has generally been con- 

 sidered a form of P. m a j o r, but it may be distinguished by its 

 pubescence, its smaller, thicker leayes with petioles shorter than 

 the blades and by its curyed scapes. 



Lycopus communis Bickn. 

 Near Port Jefferson, Suffolk co., and in the Adirondack region. 

 This is closely related to L. yirginicus, with which it has 

 been confused and from which it may be separated by the tuber- 

 ous base of the stem. 



Arisaema pusillum (Pk.) Nash 

 Fine specimens of this plant, which was formerly considered 

 a yariety of A. t r i p h y 1 1 u m , were found near Highland, Ulster 

 CO., in June, by C. J. Elting and contributed by him to the 

 herbarium. 



Limnorchis media Rydb. 



Swamps and wet places near Jordanville, Herkimer co. July. 

 This and the next species were formerly thought to be forms of 

 Habenaria hyperborea, which they closely resemble. 

 State Museum report 50, 1:126. 



Limnorchis huronensis (Nutt.) Rydb. 



Wet places and swampy ground about Jordanyille. July. Also 

 in Petersburg, Rensselaer co. A much smaller plant than the 

 preceding. L. dilatata linearifolia Rydb. is represented 

 in the herbarium by a specimen collected many years ago by 

 Rev J. A. Paine near Hidden lake, Herkimer county.
