This specimen is one of the those mentioned by John Torrey,
in his Flora of the State of New York (FI. N.Y.) Vol. 1,
p. vii (1843), where he stated that a reference herbarium
was presented to the Cabinet of Natural History at Albany
(now, NYS) and six additional sets were to be presented to
public institutions. The specimens at NYS bear the pale
blue-gray label like this specimen and represent material
collected in the State of New York. None bear collection
localities or dates.
