FAUNA AND FLORA OF WISCONSIN. 



The following Catalogues, prepared at the request of Albert C. Ingham, 

 Esq., the Secretary of the Wisconsin State Agricultural Societj^, include the 

 Animals, the Fossils in the rocks, and the Plants, heretofore observed in that 

 State. They are very far from being complete lists of our Fauna and Flora, 

 only such species having been included as have been actually observed by me, 

 or were communicated to me by competent persons. A few species are added 

 on the authority of naturalists who have formerly visited this country. They 

 embrace 62 Mammals, 287 Birds, 19 Reptiles, 14 Fishes, 90 MoUusks, 92 

 Fossils, and 949 Plants. TAT APHAAf
