REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST FOR 1921 49 



Oswego County 



Carex scoparia var. tessellata Fernald & Wiegand 



(Rhodora, 12: 135. 1910) 



Kasoag marsh. Dr C. H. Peck. This has been labelled by Peck 



as " C. scoparia minor Boott," which is C. Crawfordii 



Fernald. The plants are but 2 to 3 dm high, the 2 to 6 spikes 



crowded into a dense inflorescence, which makes the plant resemble 



C. Crawfordii. The scales, however, are brownish and 



narrower than the body of the perigynia.

 Lily marsh, South New Haven. House 8147, June 22, 192 1. 



Carex incomperta x interior

 Lily marsh, South New Haven, growing on the turfy surface of 

 a peat bed. House 8 448, June 22, 192 1. New to this section of the 

 State. 



Limodorum tuberosum L. 

 The leaves of this orchid are usually 5 to 15 mm broad and vary 

 exceedingly in length, those in more exposed situations usually 

 being shorter. In Oswego county occurs a rather remarkable 

 extreme in which the leaves are exceedingly narrow (2 to 4 mm 

 broad), long and grasslike, exactly simulating those of the southern 

 L. graminifolium (Ell.) Small. This form maybe desig- 

 nated as forma linariifolium, forma nova.
