138 FLORA OF MOUNT DESERT. LEONURUS, L. MOTHERWORT. L. CARDIACA, L. COMMON MOTHERWORT. Waste places and by dwellings; rare. Tarr Valley, near Fer- nald Point (Annie S. Downs);—Oak Hill; Sargent Cove (Rand). Adventive from Europe. GALEOPSIS, L. HEMP NETTLE. G. TETRAHIT, L. COMMON HEMP NETTLE. [illegible] A common weed in waste places and in cultivated grounds. Said to be naturalized from Europe, but appearing indigenous, at least in northern New England. STACHYS, L. HEDGE NETTLE. S. ARVENSIS, L. WOUNDWORT. Rare. Field, Bar Harbor (Mary Minot). Adventive from Europe. PLANTAGINACEÆ. PLANTAIN FAMILY. PLANTAGO, L. PLANTAIN. P. MAJOR, L. COMMON PLANTAIN. Fields and waysides; very common. Commonly naturalized from Europe. This plant, however, is found all over the Island in many places so remote from dwellings or cultivated grounds as to lead to the inference that it may be also indigenous. Thick-leaved saline forms are frequent on sea beaches. Little Harbor; Little Cranberry Isle (Redfield);—Great Cranberry Isle (Rand). P. LANCEOLATA, L. RIBGRASS. Waysides and grass lands; formerly rare, but of late years becoming more common. Mill Cove; Little Harbor; Southwest Harbor (Rand);—Bar Harbor (Rand, W. H. Manning). P. DECIPiens, Barn. SEA PLANTAIN. Very common in salt marshes, on beaches, and among rocks on the shore.
