8 REPORT ON TWO BOTANICAL COLLECTIONS FROM 
of the Orchidace:e comes first, Melastomaceze second, Composite third, and Rubiace:e 
and Graminez bracketed fourth. 
It is unfortunate that all the plants collected on the upper parts of Roraima have 
been gathered in the last three months of the year. February brings to Roraima a few 
bare trees (Appun, * Unten den Tropen," ii. p. 226): March brings copious Gesnerads into 
flower, at least at the foot of the mountain (Boddam-Whetham, * Roraima’); and April is 
a month producing more flowers than November (Siedel fide im Thurn in Trans. Linn. 
Soc., ser. II. ii. p. 250); but I am unable to record anything collected above 5000 feet 
during these months. 
In conclusion, my thanks for help are due to Messrs. McConnell, Quelch, and C. B. 
Clarke, to my colleagues, and also to Professor T. McKenny Hughes and Dr. William 
Pollard. 
The Flora of Roraima above 5000 feet, as now known, with the Geographical 
Distribution of each Species.
