Aster concinnus, Willd. 



A specimen of this rare Aster was sent to our herbarium 

 by Mr. Eugene A. Rau in December, 1890. The label 

 reads thus : " ]\Ioraviantown (formerly called New Fair- 

 field) near railroad station, Bothwell, Ontario, Canada. 



•Collected by Robert Rau, Sept. 30th, 1872. Identified 

 by Prof. Porter." Specimens collected by Jas. M. Macoun, 



-at Point Edward, Ont., in 1884, have been doubtfully 

 referred here. They differ very slightly from Mr. Rau's 



.specimen, and are not referable to any other species.
