CAMPANULACEZ. 
Campanula rotundifolia alaskana Gray, Syn. FI. ii, pt. i, 395 (1886). The range 
given with the description is from the northern Aleutian Islands to Kadiak and Sitka. 
Disenchantment Bay, July 10 (No. 56) and August 10 (No, 102); the latter nearly 
past flowering. The name here used can not properly be applied to this plant under 
the present principles of nomenclature, but an examination of type specimens is 
necessary to ascertain its proper designation. No. 56 was found on the side of a 
steep, rocky bluff, about 25 kilometers north of the Mission. Where No. 102 was col- 
lected the species occurred abundantly on the grassy mountain slopes at an altitude 
of 350 to 675 meters. 
ERICACES.. 
Vaccinium ovalifolium Smith in Rees, Cyel. xxxvi (1819). Type specimen, 
“brought by Mr. Menzies from the west coast of North America.” 
At the Mission, May 31 (No. 8). The plant at this date had nearly ceased bloom- 
ing. Mature fruit was collected August 27, For notes on the distribution and uses 
of this plant, see page 329, 
Cassiope stelleriana (Pall.) DC. Prodr. vii, 611 (1839); Andromeda stelleriana 
Pall. F1. Ross, ii, 58 t. 74 f. 2 (1790). 
Disenchantment Bay, August 12 (No. 110); oecurring at an altitude of 300 to 1,000 
meters. On the summits of the mountains it 1s often the only plant to be found. 
The thick leaves of this plant have thin edges, which character, as is suggested by 
their position in unfolding, may be due to the pressure of the parts in the bud, 
Bryanthus glanduliflorus (Hook.) Gray, Proc. Amer, Acad. vu, 368 (1868); Men- 
ziesia glanduliflorus Hook, V1. Bor. Amer, 1i, 40, t. 182 (1854). Type specimens 
collected by Drummond in the alpine woods and mountains north of the Smoking 
River. 
Disenchantment Bay, August 12 (No. 109); on the mountains at the altitude of 
from 350 to 1,000 meters. The leaves of these Alaskan specimens, which seem to be 
from the highest latitude in which the species has ever been found, are thinner and 
more serrate than in specimens from the southern portion of the range of the species. 
The densely glandular, hirsute corolla and calyx, the short-pilose but not glandular 
filaments, and the lemon-yellow color of the corolla, distinguish it from the related 
species. The serrations of the leaves are tipped when young with glands which, 
like those of the calyx and corolla, afford a resinous-glandular protective covering 
for the exposed nascent parts of the plant. 
Menziesia ferruginea Smith, Ic. Ined. t. 56 (1791). 
Khantaak Island, June 10 (No. 26); common in the lowland forests on the main- 
land and extending to 550 meters on Mount Tebenkof. The filaments in these 
specimens are conspicuously short-pilose near the base. 
Pyrola minor L. Sp. Pl-i, 396 (1753). Type locality European. 
Disenchantment Bay, August 14 (No. 86); found at only asingle point, in the shade 
of a clump of alders near the beach. 
Pyrola secunda L. Sp. Pl. i, 396 (1753). Type locality European. 
On the eastern shore of Yakutat Bay about 30 kilometers north of the Mission, 
July 14 (No. 57). It was found, but not frequently, at several points in the forest 
area growing in the moist moss. 
Moneses uniflora (L.) Gray, Man. 273 (1848); Pyrola uniflora L. Sp. Pl. i, 397. 
Type locality Kuropean. 
Ocean Cape, July 9 (No. 54), growing in the moss of a dense. forest, and in the 
mainland forest near Mount Tebenkof.
