SPECIES NOT BEFORE REPORTED 



, Viola villosa Walt. 



Dry banks. Apalachin. May. F. E. Fenno. Its range extends 

 southward. 



Lychnis chalcedonica Z. 



The scarlet lychnis is cultivated for its flowers and as an ornamental 

 plant of gardens, but it sometimes escapes from cultivation, and is found 

 growing spontaneously by roadsides and in waste places. Clary ville and 

 North Elba. July. 



Rubus argutus Lk, 



This blackberry has long been regarded as a variety of our common 

 blackberry and has borne the botanical name, R. villosus var. 

 f r o n d o s u s , but it has recently been restored to specific rank. It is 

 found in many places, and in some it is quite plentiful. 



Antennaria canadensis Greene 

 Dry soil in pastures and by roadsides. Warrensburg and North Elba. 

 May. The species is recognizable by its small leaves with the upper 

 surface green and glabrous. 



Antennaria neodioica Greene 

 Near Saugerties. May. Our specimens were found growing in shaly 

 soil on banks along the roadside. They belong to a form which has 

 outer involucral bracts more pointed than in the type. This form has 

 been made a variety and stands as Antennaria neodioica 

 attenuata Fernald. Its basal leaves are similar in size and shape to 

 those of the preceding species, but the upper surface is more or less can- 

 escent with appressed webby hairs. 



Helianthus grosse-serratus Martens 

 In a cultivated field two miles north of Glens Falls. Probably intro- 

 duced from the west. September. S. H. Burnham. 



Juncus dudleyi Wiegd. 



Marl creek, Cortland co. July. Formerly considered a variety of 

 J. tenuis, but now separated as a distinct species.
