Records:

(1) In a pine woods, likely west of Holly Farms Road (off Benfield Road) by Plitt & Weber 3/28/1903. Fessenden's 1955 extract misplaces the site near Robinson Station. The herbarium specimen [See Steiber, 1967: "Near Binfield, in a pine woods" 3/28/1903, C. C. Plitt (US)] has led some to search the end of Benfield Boulevard, near the skating rink; the 1909 forest map shows no pine woods at that location.

(2) Benfield. Sipple (1999, p.353) suggests that on 4/19/1919, Plitt and Burner found thousands of plants at a station near Severn Run and Veterans Highway. Sipple also suggests that collections of 1938, 1939, & 1941 labeled "Benfield" or "near Benfield" are from that site.

(3) Woodwardville, at a farm 4/21/1912, M. B. Waite (US) (Stieber 1967). Probably the same as records for Patuxent and Conway Station.
