THE SYSTEMATIC CONSTITUENTS OF THE FLORA. 



The following list deals only with the area discussed iu the previous 

 pages, aud uulike most lists of this uature, which after all are only 

 approximate to the truth, it may be accepted as representing the true 

 composition of the flora of the Leribe plateau aud its environs. I do 

 not think there is a single species of Phanerogams or Ferus from this 

 locality that has not been collected by Madame Dieterleu.
