Remarks

[“Sparganium Ramosum (?) with linear stigmas to the style -- sometimes more than equal -- Monroes & Dodds shore -- I have pressed the smallest specimen -- This is the tall one of the river -- The length of the stigma is very variable in this & I think it doubtful if there is more than one species! how long? some is gone to seed. Like the Sium & perhaps smallest of the N.[uphar] Kalmianas it is common in mid stream but ap.[parently] abortive there -- Lower third of the leaves convex, rest concave --” unpublished passage from the Journal]
