2^2. FLORIDA GEOLOGICAL SURVEY SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT. 



dense hardwood forests with considerable humus can be seen, and 

 the branches and creeks are bordered by wet woods or swamps. The 

 lakes and ponds of course have their characteristic vegetation. 

 Finally, the old fields, roadsides, railroad rights-of-way, etc., which 

 cover a large part of the area, have a characteristic weed vegetation, 

 probably more conspicuous here than in any other part of Florida. 

 ■ Plants — The following list is based on obsei-vations made in 

 every month in the year except January and February, and it ought 

 to be fairly accurate as far as it goes.
