362a. Coreopsis trichosperma, Michx. — Found by the Misses Mohr 

 near Burnet Woods; afterwards by Mr. Spurlock on the canal near the 

 Work -house. This is a very western station, as it is mostly confined to the 

 coast. It is easily recognized by its finely dissected leaves and bright 

 yellow flowers. 



370a. Matricaria discoldea, DC. — This has been found near Love- 

 land, O., in one spot, and was doubtless introduced with some plants from 

 California. It has previously been recorded from only one or two locali- 

 ties in the eastern section of the country. 



371. Leucanthemum vulgare, Lam,, Ox-eye Daisy. — Is now referred 

 back by Bentham & Hooker to the old name of Chrysanthemum Leucan- 

 themum, L. 



392. Lappa officinalis, Allione, is now called Arctium Major, L. 



392a. Cichorium Intybus, L. — Cichory. Found by the Misses Mohr 

 on Elm Street Hill, apparently well established. The flowers are quite 

 large, bright blue, leaves minute and inconspicuous. 



LOBELIACEiE. 



410. Lobelia spicata, Lam. — This has been credited to Clark's cata- 

 logue, but three or four spe imens were found last year by the writer near 

 Branch Hill, 0. 



CAMPANTJLACEiE. 



412. Specularia Americana, Morgan (Campanula Americana, L). — 

 This common species is, I believe, a true Specularia. Wh le all the genu- 

 ine Campanulas have bell-shaped, drooping, pediceled flowers, the spe- 

 cies of Specularia have rotate, erect and sessile flowers. These last -points 

 are found in the C. Americana. In Hooker's Students' Flora of the Brit- 

 Islands, Specularia is a sub genus under Campanula. In the Genera 

 Plantarum they are kept distinct. As Mr. A P. Morgan first suggested 

 the change here given, he is credited with the new name. 



412a. Campanula rapunculoides, L. — Found by the Misses Mohr on 

 Elm Street Hill. Escaped and naturalized. 



ERICACEAE. 



415. Monotropa uniflora, L. - A large bunch of plants of this spe- 

 cies was exhibited before this Society on October 3, 1882. An examina- 

 tion of the cluster to see if any indication of parasitism could be found, 

 revealed no connection between its mass of roots and those of the trees 

 among which it grew. The mass resembled more the mycelium of a fun-
