Vol, VI., BunLeTin oF THE ToRREY Botanica Cxus. 
Note.—In printing the second number of Vol. VI. there. was an 
error in the paging, that No. beginning with p. 12, instead of p. 9. 
To fill up this lacuna of four pages, we now print four pages of our 
local Catalogue, numbering them 9-12. The date of the Catalogue 
is not very material, most of the stations having been determined 
long ago. We stopped at the Carices, hoping that some one of the 
Cius would devote himself to that difficult genus. As no one came 
forward, we have compiled the list from such reports as we had, be- 
ing careful to put in nothing without good authority. Nevertheless, 
some errors may be found, which we hope will be corrected, and 
we doubt not considerable additions can be made before the end of 
1879, when we® purpose to publish a complete index to our local 
catalogue. 
We have given a few of the Gramineae, but prefer to wait for 
the rest,and for the Cryplogams, till we receive further communica- — 
tions. We trust that all the members of the Club will furnish us at 
once with specimens of their Grasses from the various stations, to 
be submitted to the eminent authority of their President. Each 
specimen should be clearly labelled with the name of the collector, 
of the station, and with the habitat, and the date of collection, as 
far as possible.
