56 Rhodora [Marcu 
ORCHIDS FOUND IN THE REGION OF ASQUAM LAKE. 
ALBERT EDGAR LOWENSTEIN. 
In the following list are enumerated the Orchidaceae found by the 
members of Camp Algonquin, Holderness, New Hampshire. The 
region explored was bounded roughly as follows: on the north by 
Mt. Israel, on the east by Red Hill, on the south by the town of 
Ashland, and on the west by Mt. Prospect. This district includes all 
of Asquam Lake. The Squam Range runs from southwest to north- 
east through the central part of the region. 
During the last five years the boys of the camp have scoured this 
section thoroughly, and have made up a list of some 750 plants. A 
list of animals has also been made. Of the orchids here mentioned a 
practically complete series has been contributed to the herbarium of 
the New England Botanical Club.
