400 FLORIDA GEOLOGICAL SURVEY SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT. 



LIST OF TREES 



The following list comprises all the native trees (including many small 

 trees) mentioned in the foregoing pages (and a few additional ones too rare 

 to appear in any of the regional lists), with their percentages of abundance 

 for northern Florida as a whole, their technical and coinmon names, and a few 

 words about their distribution and habitat. The percentages are given only to 

 the nearest tenth of one per cent, and therefore those less than .05% are rep- 

 resented by o. In the case of the small trees, which have been estimated on a 

 smaller scale than the large ones, as explained on pages 178 and 186, the per- 

 centages are not given, but are replaced by interrogation points. None of them 

 would exceed 1% even if they were given. Evergreens are indicated by heavy 

 type, as before. The sequence is very nearly the same as in Small's Trees of 

 Florida (1913), in which can be found the names of several species which are 

 not mentioned here because they are confined to the southern parts of the state, 

 or are not native, or have not been identified by the writer, or are too small to 

 be 4-egaided as trees.
