CATALOGUE OF PLANTS. 77 BERBERIDACEÆ. BARBERRY FAMILY. BERBERIS, L. BARBERRY. 14 B. vulgaris, L. Common Barberry. Escaped from gardens, or rarely spontaneous. Roadside north of Seal Harbor,—this station now destroyed (Rand, Redfield);— clearing, Canada Valley (Rand); — roadside near Norwood Cove (Rand, Annie S. Downs); — Ox Hill, Seal Harbor (Redfield). NYMPHÆACEÆ. WATER-LILY FAMILY. BRASENIA, Schreb. WATER SHIELD. 15 B. peltata (Thunb.), Pursh. Abundant in Witch Hole (Rand, Redfield, F. M. Day);— Somes Pond (R. & R., M. L.

78 FLORA OF MOUNT DESERT. FUMARIA, L. Fumitory. F. OFFICINALIS, L. Waste ground, Great Cranberry Isle (R. & R.). Adventive from Europe. CRUCIFERÆ. MUSTARD FAMILY. CARDAMINE, L. BITTER CRESS. C. hirsuta, L. Frequent in brooks and on pond shores. So far as known the Island plants are all glabrous, and in other respects do not correspond to the typical European plant. Whether our common American plant is not specifically distinct seems to be an open question. That it is so distinct, see N. L. Britton, Bull. Torr. Bot. Club, xix. 219. As, however, there appear to be intermediate forms, perhaps it would be wiser to give it only varietal rank. The Mt. Desert forms can perhaps be classified under the three following heads for convenience, although apparently there are no well defined dividing lines between them. (a) Forma Pennsylvanica. C. Pennsylvanica, Muhl. Glabrous; large and leafy; few, if any, radical leaves; pods linear; pedicels somewhat divergent. Roadside ditch between Town Hill and Northwest Cove; near outlet of Great Pond; Intervale Brook (Rand). (b) Like the last, but with widely divergent pedicels, and thicker, much shorter pods. The most common form. Brook, Clark Valley; Cold Brook; Intervale Brook (Rand);— Doctors Brook; Stanley Brook (Redfield); — Deer Brook (R. & R.). (c) A form more nearly corresponding to typical C. hirsuta. Glabrous; radical leaves rosulate; pedicels erect or somewhat spreading; style short and stout; pods variable in length and thickness. Shores of Northwest Arm, Great Pond (Rand, M. L. Fernald). C. parviflora, L. Leaflets mostly linear; radical leaves few or none; pods linear, erect on spreading pedicels. In dry ground, or among moist rocks; rare. Little Duck Island; Flying Mt. (Rand).

RAGWEED. A common weed in waste places. Many people suppose its pollen an effective cause of hay fever, and find relief on the Island owing to the supposed absence of this plant. This relief however, it seems, must be attributed to some other cause, as the plant in question grows everywhere,—even on the Cranberry Isles,—in more or less abundance, and is spreading with the increasing settlement of the Island. RUDBECKIA, L. CONE FLOWER. 291 R. hirta, L. YELLOW DAISY. BLACK-EYED SUSAN. Naturalized in grass fields from the West. Very common about Somesville and Bar Harbor, and more or less abundant all over the Island. A fastigiate form, Seal Harbor (Redfield).

Very variable. A form from Sea Wall (Rand), having extremely small flowers with corolla scarcely spreading, and leaves less toothed and cut and more crenate, corresponds fairly well to the description of var. Tatarica, Benth., but does not agree with herbarium specimens. It appears to be intermediate between E. curta, Fries, and E. gracilis, Fries. The species, however, is so variable, and has been so subdivided, that it is impossible to name with any certainty its subspecies and varie- ties without a careful study of the type specimens.

A form from mud flats, Somes Pond (Rand), closely approaches U. biflora, Lam., and may perhaps prove to be that species. “The flower has the spurs of U. biflora very decidedly, but the foliage and the bladders are those of U. gibba. The spur here is oblong, narrow, not curved but projecting straightwise, and the perianth is somewhat larger than is gen- erally the case in U. gibba. Other specimens with foliage and bladders better represented might show this to be U. biflora, but at present it is safer to call it ‘U. gibba verging towards U. biflora in flowers.’” Dr. Thomas Morong in litt. 407 U. intermedia, Hayne.

Whatever may be the fact in re- gard to the specific rank of S. anceps and S. mucronatum, all the Island forms must be referred to S. angustifolium. A specimen with a single spathe, collected by F. M. Day, in 1882, probably in the vicinity of Bar Harbor, has been somewhat doubtfully marked S. anceps in the herbarium. A recent and more careful examination, however, seems to show that it is nothing more than S. angustifolium with smaller, probably immature seeds. It is worthy of remark that not a specimen of the true S. anceps form has yet been found on the Island, although S. angustifolium is so very abundant. This fact is evidence that these forms of the plant merit at least varietal distinction. LILIACEÆ. LILY FAMILY. HEMEROCALLIS, L. DAY LILY. 538 H. FULVA, L.

C.B, A coarse leafy grass, 2°-4° high, with a diffuse ample panicule and oblong, somewhat turgid spikelets. Sheaths scabrous, the lower exceeding the internodes. Ligule about 1" long, thin, lacerate. Leaves 8'-15' long, 3"-4" wide, very rough-scabrous, both sides tapering to a sharp point or the lower ones abruptly sharp-pointed. Panicle 7'-9' long, the main axis and branches strongly scabrous, lower branches in twos or threes, the upper solitary, the longer and usually widely spreading lower ones 3'-5' long. Spikelets oblong or broadly ovate, 3-5-flowered, about 2" long, much exceeding the pedicels, and from 1"-1½" wide. Empty glumes unequal, scarios-margined, the larger second glume about one half the length of the first floret. Flowering glumes rounded on the back, 1"-1¼" long, broadly obovate, obtuse, with a narrow scarious margin above, 7-nerved, nerves not prominent. Palea nearly equalling the glume, the keels smooth, strongly curved above. Closely allied to G. Canadensis, but the smaller spikelets are green or purple tinged, and the more obtuse floral glume scarcely exceeds the narrower palea. F. Lamson-Scribner in Bull. Torr. Bot. Club, xxi. 37, sub nom.

Specimens from High Head, Great Cranberry Isle, Little Cranberry Isle, and Thompson Island, may be referred to var. genuina, Hack. A specimen from Indian Point road, Somesville, appears to be var. fallax, Hack. "In F. rubra the leaves of the culm and sterile shoots are similar, the ligules in the latter are not auriculate, and the shoots themselves are extra-vaginal; i. e. the buds of the branches at the base of the culm burst through the base of the leaf sheath in the axil of which they are formed. In F. ovina the leaves of the flowering culms and sterile shoots are unlike, the ligules on the latter are auriculate and the shoots themselves are intra-vaginal; i. e. the buds in the lower leaf axils grow up out of the sheaths and do not break through them below. F. ovina is strictly tufted, while F. rubra extends more or less by rootstocks." F. Lamson-Scribner. 755 F. DURIUSCULA, L. F. ovina, L., var. duriuscula, Koch. Gray, Man., 6th ed.

190 FLORA OF MOUNT DESERT. CLASS II. BRYOPHYTA. DIVISION I. MUSCI; MOSSSES. ORDER I. SPHAGNACEAE. PEAT MOSSES. List prepared by Edward L. Rand, assisted greatly by Edwin Faxon and Prof. Daniel C. Eaton, and arranged mainly in accordance with the writings of Dr. Carl Warnstorf, of Neuruppin, Germany. The plants catalogued in the following list have been collected mostly by Edwin Faxon and Edward L. Rand; the determinations are by Dr. Carl Warnstorf. In view of the great difficulty of finding descriptions of the various species and varieties, it has been thought wise to give freely references to Lesqueureux and James's "Mosses of North America," and to Dr. Warnstorf's articles on North American Sphagna, to be found in Coulter's Botanical Gazette, Vol. XV., in the numbers for the months of June, August, September, and October, 1890,—both of which works can be consulted with little trouble. In cases, furthermore, where descriptions are not there given, they have been either translated or specially prepared for this list by Prof. Eaton and Mr. Faxon. It has not seemed best to include forms and sub-forms herein, since most of them have little value except for the critical student. Very many of them are, however, represented in the Mt. Desert Herbarium. On the other hand, all varieties are given, without regard to the distinctions on which they are founded. The value, however, of most of the so-called color varieties is very doubtful, since careful observations seem to prove beyond question that the color of Sphagnum varies greatly with the season. It is even a matter of doubt whether a given plant of any species may not quickly vary through the influence of temporary external conditions, assuming at one time the form of one variety, at another time the form of another. This doubtful value of varieties of Sphagnum furnishes an additional reason for the exclusion of mere forms and sub-forms from a local catalogue of plants.
