  Aris^ema 
  triphyllum 
  Torr. 
  

  

  This 
  plant 
  with 
  us 
  is 
  quite 
  constantly 
  dioecious. 
  During 
  

   two 
  or 
  three 
  successive 
  seasons 
  I 
  have 
  examined 
  scores 
  of 
  

   plants 
  in 
  various 
  localities 
  in 
  the 
  vain 
  effort 
  to 
  find 
  a 
  speci- 
  

   men 
  with 
  monoecious 
  inflorescence. 
  Can 
  it 
  be 
  that 
  the 
  

   monoecious 
  character 
  is 
  giving 
  way, 
  under 
  altered 
  climatic 
  

   conditions, 
  to 
  a 
  dioecious 
  one

  Mr. 
  Kruger 
  

   observes 
  that 
  the 
  fresh 
  plant 
  has 
  a 
  pleasant 
  vanilla-like 
  

   odor. 
  Rev.

  also 
  speaks 
  of 
  its 
  fragrance.

  Mrs. 
  

   Millington 
  observes 
  that 
  the 
  fronds 
  are 
  very 
  tall, 
  "some- 
  

   times 
  three 
  feet 
  high," 
  that 
  the 
  sori 
  at 
  length 
  spread 
  over 
  

   the 
  whole 
  under 
  surface 
  and 
  that 
  there 
  is 
  a 
  marked 
  vanilla- 
  

   like 
  odor 
  which 
  persists 
  even 
  in 
  the 
  dried 
  specimens,

  This, 
  so 
  far

  I 
  know, 
  is 
  the 
  only 
  New

   station 
  for 
  this 
  rare 
  fern. 
  The 
  credit 
  of 
  its 
  discovery 
  

   belongs, 
  I 
  believe, 
  to 
  Miss 
  M. 
  C.
