About Hudson's Bay and on high mountains of New 

 York and Pensylvania. tj . May. v. v. The Red 

 Larch resembles the preceding, and both have been 

 considered as one species by Michaus ; but they are 

 specifically and constantly different ; I never saw them 

 both growing in the saiv.e place, or even near one an- 

 other. Mr. Lambert likewise observes that they have 

 always kept distinct, when raised from seed.
