 Many are new to the State while others are from beyond the previ- 

 ously known limits of distribution in Maine. Specimens of all these 

 plants have been submitted to Prof. !\I. L. Fernald of the Gray Her- 

 barium for identification, antl I am very sure we have jiresented him 

 with duplicates of all the species here recorded.
