About 85% of the trees and 95% of the shrubs are evergreen. 

 As in many other regions with mainly non-calcareous soils, 

 Ericaceae are relatively abundant and Leguminosae rather scarce. 

 The species that are more abundant in the lime-sink region than 

 here* probably prefer more calcareous or potassic or phosphatic or 

 ferruginous soils, while those with an opposite tendency t are more 

 characteristic of acid soils, swamps, bogs, marshes, etc. 



A few of the plants in the list, such as Pcrsca Jiinnilis, Pntnus 

 geniciilata, and Eriogonuni Floridanum, and possibly fifty other 

 less abundant species not listed are confined to the lake region, or 

 nearly so, while probably an equal number occur in other regions 

 but not outside of Florida; the lake resfion beingf far ahead of other
