* we're still moving too fast to think about results, but I'll attach a 
listing of the Phragmites we've seen or collected in Nova Scotia so far. 
Some of them have been nonstandard for the invasive form, but none of 
them are the fully-featured European form.

Thanks to everyone for the locations of stands elsewhere in the 
province, we'll keep looking, and report further finds,
