A Bermudian marine Vaucheria at Cape Cod. A. J. Bernatowicz.
Vaucheria nasuta Taylor and Bernatowicz, heretofore known only from Bermuda, is re-
ported from the salt marsh at Barnstable, Massachusetts. With this record the number of
marine Vaucherias known from northeastern North America is raised to ten, of which seven
occur on Cape Cod. Records of the earlier finds suggested that reproduction in local Vaucherias
may be confined to the winter months, but the present material was reproductive, although
sparsely, in August.
