  Ilex 
  monticola 
  A. 
  Graij, 
  

  

  This 
  interesting 
  shrub 
  is 
  not 
  rare 
  about 
  Lake 
  Minnewaska. 
  It 
  

  

  also 
  occurs 
  at 
  Lake 
  Mohonk. 
  It 
  blossoms 
  in 
  June 
  in 
  these 
  localities. 
  

  

  It 
  has 
  been 
  reported 
  from 
  Cattaraugus 
  county 
  and 
  from 
  the 
  Catskill 
  

  

  mountains. 
  

  

  Solidago 
  rugosa 
  Mill. 
  

  

  A 
  peculiar 
  form 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  was 
  found 
  growing 
  near 
  Lake 
  

  

  Ampersand. 
  The 
  flowering 
  branches 
  are 
  very 
  short, 
  generally 
  less 
  

  

  than 
  an 
  inch 
  long 
  and 
  shorter 
  than 
  the 
  leaves 
  in 
  whose 
  axils 
  they 
  

  

  grow. 
  They 
  therefore 
  form 
  an 
  elongated 
  narrow 
  racemose 
  leafy 
  

  

  panicle.

  Abundant

  This 
  small 
  shrub 
  is 
  a 
  beautiful 
  sight 
  when 
  in 
  blossom. 
  The 
  

   flowers 
  precede 
  the 
  'leaves, 
  and 
  though 
  smaller, 
  they 
  are 
  similar 
  in 
  

   color 
  to 
  and 
  scarcely 
  less 
  showy 
  than 
  those 
  of 
  the 
  pinkster-flower, 
  

   Azalea 
  nudiUora. 
  They 
  assume 
  a 
  purplish 
  hue 
  in 
  drying. 
  A 
  single 
  

   flowering 
  specimen 
  was 
  collected 
  several 
  years 
  ago 
  near 
  Thirteenth 
  

   pond 
  in 
  Warren 
  county 
  and 
  contributed 
  to 
  the 
  herbarium 
  by 
  Mrs 
  

   I. 
  B. 
  Sampson. 
  Aside 
  from 
  this, 
  the 
  localities 
  on 
  the 
  Shawangunk 
  

   mountain 
  are 
  the 
  only 
  places 
  in 
  the 
  state 
  from 
  which 
  specimens 
  

   have 
  come 
  to 
  my 
  notice. 
  

  

  Plantago 
  major 
  L. 
  

  

  A 
  small 
  pubescent 
  form 
  is 
  not 
  rare

  streams 
  and 
  about 
  the 
  

   margins 
  of 
  lakes 
  in 
  the 
  Adirondack 
  region. 
  The 
  leaf 
  blades 
  are 
  

   I 
  to 
  2 
  inches 
  long 
  and 
  the 
  scapes 
  are 
  2 
  to 
  4 
  high. 
  The 
  number 
  of 
  

   seeds 
  in 
  each 
  seed 
  vessel 
  is 
  often 
  less 
  than 
  eight.
