Coelopleurum actaetfolium (Mx.) Coult. & Rose. — Dry hills facing the Sound, 

 Orient and East Marion; determined by Dr. J. N. Rose. Mr. 

 Latham wrote Dr. Rose, April 192 1, as follows. "The speci- 

 . mens were not very good as they were taken late in December 

 while collecting birds. The plants were quite common along 

 the top of the Sound bank in high rocky dry ground. At that 

 date, the basal leaves were green, and the dry fruiting stalks 

 were from 4-6 feet high. It was a stout plant. Ligusticum 

 scoticum is a very common plant at the borders of salt marshes 

 in Orient. It is different from this plant; it is not as stout, nor 

 so tall and never grows in such high dry grounds. " Mr. Latham 

 again collected it in June 192 1, and wrote Dr. Rose as follows. 

 " I am sending you today specimens collected the past summer 

 at Orient. There is quite a colony of this species growing on 

 a high bank of the Sound coast and about three miles east 

 another small colony on a low beach between the Sound and 

 Bay." Dr. A. W. Evans in Torreya, June 1917, reported 

 Coelopleurum actaeifolium from Fisher's Island, the only other 

 station known further south than Nantucket, Massachusetts. 



Comus alternifolia L. f. — Gardiner's Island, probably introduced; deter- 

 mined by Dr. Pennell.
