 PLANTS NOT BEFORE REPORTED 



GEUM MACROPHYLLUM, Willd. 



Adirondack mountains, near the inlet of Lower Ausable pond- 

 In the Manual this species is accredited to the base of the White 

 mountains, Northern Michigan, Illinois and north-westward. Our 

 newly discovered station is intermediate between the eastern and 

 western localities recorded in the Manual. Flowering specimens 

 were collected in June. 



LACTUCA SCARIOLA, L. 



Introduced, but apparently well established, in Clyde, Wayne 

 county. September. 



MIMULUS MOSCHATUS, Dougl. 



Introduced. "Well established in a bog near Locust Valley," 

 Long Island. Julius A. Bisky. August. 



AMIANTHIUM MUSC^TOXICUM, Gr. 



Valley Stream, Long Island. July. /. A. Bisky. This is 

 probably one of its most northern stations. 



JUNCUS MILITARIS, Bigel. 



Adirondack mountains. In Mud pond and Clear pond near 

 Long lake. July. The bayonet rush grows in shallow water in 

 these localities. Its panicle is not very conspicuous, and a 

 superficial observer might easily mistake the plant for the great 

 bulrush, Scirpus validus, which grows in similar situations. It 

 spreads by creeping rootstocks which give origin to new plants, 

 sometimes at less than an inch from the parent plant. The 

 capillary submersed leaver noticed by Dr Robbins in flowing 

 water were not seen in these stations, in which the plants grow in 

 quiet water. The whitish membranous scales that subtend the 

 reddish-brown or chestnut colored heads of flowers are noticeable by 

 reason of the contrast in colors.
