ADDITIONS TO THE FLORA OF SOUTHERN 
CALIFORNIA. 
BY.-S.. B.. PARISH, 
Since the completion of the Botany of the Geological Survey 
a considerable number of plants have been detected which were 
not then known to grow within the limits of the State, and the 
range of others has been found to be much more extensive than 
is indicated in that work. Probably these additions and exten- 
sions have been more numerous in the southern counties than 
elsewhere. Owing to the premature discontinuance of the 
survey the botanical exploration of these counties was less 
thorough than in the upper part of the State, which then 
contained a far larger proportion of the total population than at 
present. With a single notable exception the South was also 
entirely without local botanists, Mr. Daniel Cleveland having 
been for years the only resident cultivator of the science. It 
was not until near the completion of the second volume that a 
few records are made based on the collections made by Rev. J. C. 
Nevin and Mr. W. G. Wright, and the explorations of Parry 
and Lemmon. Since then the knowledge of the southern flora 
has been greatly enlarged by others who have become residents 
of the region, among whom may be mentioned Mr. W. S. 
Lyon, Mr. C. R. Orcutt, Dr. H. E. Hasse, Dr. A. Davidson and 
Prof. A. J. McClatchie. 
: This botanical activity has resulted in the discovery of a 
‘number of new species, and the extension to this region of others.
