 860. P. grandidentata, Michx. (H. andC.)

 low the bridge. Near Six Mile Creek. Near Renwick, and fre- 

 quent along Negusena Cr., and on the shores of Cayuga Lake. 



562. P. balsamifera, E. Balsam Poplar. (H.) Fl. May 1-10. 

 Bank of Taughannock ravine, on the steep, wooded slope at the 



top of the north bank, north of the Falls. The trees are near the 

 . great curve of the ravine bank, and are probably indigenous, re- 

 sembling in habitat and appearance those seen at Niagara and else- 

 where. The trees are small, seven of the larger being only 15-20 

 cm. in diameter, but appearing like old trees. Wild, but apparent- 

 ly introduced, 011 the high bank above the C. S. R. R., south of 

 Willet's Sta. Cultivated trees, (staminate and pistillate) in front of 

 Mr. Mead's, E. of Jueld's Falls ; in meadow near White Church 

 Sta., and elsewhere. 



563. P. BALSAMIFERA, L>, var. CANDICANS, Gr. I'.AI.M OF GlLEAD, 



(C.) 



Planted occasionally. May 15-30. 



On Heustis St., Ithaca. Danby. McLean. Myers Point. At 

 Round Marshes, about the borders of Pond Meadow, are thirty or 

 more trees from % to over ^ of a meter in eliam. From their rela- 

 tive position it is altogether probable that they were planted next 

 to an old elitch made many years since. But this is only evident 

 after close inspection, as considerable undergrowth at present sur- 

 rounds them. The trees are all pistillate. Young trees near, have 

 probably sprung up from windfall twigs. 



864. * P. DILATATA, Ait, EOMBARDY POPLAR. (H.) 



E. of State St., opposite Spring St., Ithaca, but apparently spon- 

 taneous, (perhaps from floating twigs,) on Cayuga E. at Mycr's 

 Point, Lake Ridge Point, and near Willet's Sta. (Plants all pistil- 

 late.) 



P. ALBA, E. (THE AbELE,) near the Cayuga St. bridge over Six Mile 

 Cr., and on South Hill near the R. R., suckers freely from the 

 spreading roots. (Plants staminate.) 



P. TREMULA, L. EUR. ASPEN, is occasionally planted, on the Campus.
