Khantaak Island, July 27 (No. 78), on a bluff along the western side of the island. 
Erigeron salsuginosus (Richards.) Gray, Proc. Amer, Acad. xvi, 93 (1881); Aster 
salsuginosus Richards. App. Frankl. Journ. 748 (1823). Type locality, the Salt

250 meters. 
Antennaria margaritacea (L.) Hook, Fl. Bor. Amer. i, 329 (1834); Gnaphalium 
margaritaceum L. Sp. Pl. ii, 850 (1753); Anaphalis margaritacea Benth. & Hook. Gen.

Along the banks of a river flowing into Disenchantment Bay, at a point southeast 
of Haenke Island, August 11 (No. 106), in sandy soil. 
Achillea millefolium L. Sp. Pl. ii, 899 (1753). Type specimens from Europe. 
At Ocean Cape, July 18 (No. 69), abundant on the sandy beach; at Point Manby and 
in Disenchantment Bay, both along the beach and on the hillsides to an altitude of 
135 meters. The specimens belong to the boreal type of the plant, which has a 
darker-colored involucre than the weed of more southern range. 
Artemisia norvegica pacifica Gray, Syn. FI. 1, pt. ii, 871 (1884). Range given 
as from the Aretic coast to the Aleutian Islands, ete. The name of this plant 
unquestionably must be changed. 
Disenchantment Bay, August 8 (No. 93); abundant, occurring from sea level to an 
altitude of 200 meters. Some of the specimens are very large and robust, reaching 
60 cm. in height, the petioles of the basal leaves sometimes 25 em. long and their 
blades 13 cm. Its place of growth, on a grassy bank near the beach, undoubtedly 
accounts for this unusual development. 
Arnica latifolia Bong. Veg. Sitch. 147 (1833). Type specimen collected at Sitka 
by Mertens. 
Yakutat Bay, near the Mission, July 30 (No. 79), and at Dalton Landing (No. 122); 
in the former locality common in open swampy places in the forest, in the latter 
growing in abundance among the sand dunes along the beach. 
Tussilago frigida L. Sp. Pl. ii, 865 (1753). Type locality European. 
Disenchantment Bay, August (No. 105); growing in wet, sheltered spots from sea 
level to an altitude of 75 meters. Our specimens, as well as others from Alaska, do 
not conform with the typical plant of Europe. The flowering stems reach 40 em. in 
height, and the petioles 25 em.; while the leaf blades, which are usually more nearly 
reniform than deltoid, with sinuses reaching one-third or one-half the way to the 
base, attain a breadth of 15cm. The ligules of the ray flowers are minute and incon- 
spicuous in both kinds of anthodia. 
Hieracium triste Willd.; Spreng. Syst. iii, 640 (1826). Type specimen from the 
Aleutian Islands. 
Disenchantment Bay, August 12 (No. 107); at an altitude of 1,000 meters. It 
oceurred sparingly on grassy slopes from this altitude down to sea level, at the lower 
points bearing mature fruit.

Fl. Bor. Amer. i, 294, t. 102 (1834). Type locality, Fort Vancouver, Washington.
