CATALOQITE OF CANADIAN PLANTS. 495 



referred to this species by Mr. Watson, but I cannot think they are 

 identical as our specimens do not agree with ITuttall's description, as 

 given on page 192. {Torr. & Gray.) At page 675, these authors refer 

 S. multicaule to S. Drummondii, " as a less pubescent and glandular 

 variety." Silene Drummondii is now Lychnis Drummondii, and I confess 

 my examinations place our form with the latter genus. (Mixcoun.) 



(2110.) S. NOCTURNA, Linn. Observed growing at Fort Erie, Oat., 

 in 1881. Ifot since detected. (David F. Day.) 



(2111.) S. Gallica, Linn. Abundant at Cedar Hill, near Victoria, 

 B.C. (Fletcher.)

 Hudson Strait from Cape Chudleigh to Digge's Island. {R. Bell.) On

L. apetcda, Watson, King's Rep. V. 26. 



This species is doubtful. The specimens collected had erect flowers 

 and slightly exserted petals. Better specimens are needed. Gathered
