3SS Mr Goldie’s Account of some new and rare Pla/nts 
Betiila glandulosa ? ; caule punctato-glanduloso glabro, foliis 
obovatis brevi-petlolatis glabris serratis basi integerrimis, 
amends cylindraceis pedunculads, squamis trifidis.

Hah. Swamps about Lake Simcoe. 
This plant quite agrees with the character of B. glandulosa of 
Michaux and Willdenow, but differs from that of Pursh in having 
* decidedly pedunculated leaves, and pericarps with as broad a 
margin as those of Betula pumila figured by Jacquin. 
€RYPTOGAMIA STACHYOPTERIDES. 
Lycopodium. 
Capsula. reniformes uniloculares bivalves polyspermse. Semi- 
na minutissima pulveriformia. 
Lycopodium integrfolium ; caule repente ramis adscendentibus, 
foliis sparsis iinearibus acuminatis integerrimis piliferis incur- 
vis, spicis pedunculads elongato-cylindraceis ternatis, squa- 
mis rotundato-acuminads dentads. 
Hah. About Montreal. 
Very closely allied to L. clavatum, but differing in the quite en- 
tire leaves, which, moreo^ er, are less densely imbricated, and in 
the rounder scales of the elongated ternate spikes. 
The L. tristachyum of Pursh, is, according to Nuttall, 
nearly allied to L. clavatum^ but with entire leaves.” Pursh 
himself, on the other hand, describes his plant as having erect 
stems, the branches compressed, the leaves lanceolate, acute, 
quadrifarious and appressed ; and he says that it is by him re- 
garded as intermediate between L. complanatum and L. sahiiKz- 
folium. It cannot consequently be what Nuttall takes for the 
tristachyum^ nor the individual now under consideration, which 
only differs from L. clavatum in the points which I have men- 
doned above. The true tristachyum^ I may also observe, is a 
native of high mountains in Vii’gipia.
