APPENDIX. 



We will conclude these comparisons with the floras of extra- American regions with 

 an exposition of the extensions southward through the Andes and the Antarctic Islands 

 to Australia and New Zealand. The examples are not numerous, but they are unmis- 

 takable, consisting almost entirely of plants undoubtedly indigenous in the various 

 widely sundered areas.

 is made to include American plants not extending northward to Mexico *. The most
