Hi Ian & All, May 19, 2014
I think you meant Inverness county. Most of the records are in =
Inverness Co. near the coast .=20
Lindsay (1875) listed it from Mahone Bay so I wonder if all or any =
of the Mahone Bay stands you mention are transplants. It is a swamp =
plant and conspicuous only when in bloom so a small patch could be =
easily missed.=20
Also swamps can change over time as a result of natural infilling, =
changes in upslope drainage or water use and migration of nutrients. =
Consequently so called stations may be relatively transient.=20

Hi all:
=20
This is what Ian Manning has come up with for me. =20
I ran this through my Roland's Key. My best guess is Marsh Marigold =
(Caltha palustris). The range map in the book (which is due for a =
revision) states it's only found in Cape Breton County. But upon a =
further search, it looks like there has been some introduced populations =
seen in Mahone Bay, and other locations in Lunenburg Co. I think it's =
safe to assume that if this is C. palustris, that it's origin is likely =
human caused. I'd like to hear what others think. =20
=20
I also would like to hear your comments on this species. =20
