Fifth, those plants that have followed in the wake of culti- 

 vation, usually considered as weeds. Of these arc: 

 Panicum sanguinalt . 

 Lepidium Virginicum. 

 Sida spinosa. 

 Burnt .'■ vi rticillatus. 

 Amarantus albidus. 

 Amarantus spinosus. 

 Special mention should be made of Tamarix Gallica, which 

 flourishes both on the sandy beach and in situations on the 

 jetties, where it is often more or less submerged in salt water, 

 and has its lower branches encrusted with species of shells. 



Very little can be said of the cryptogamous Flora. Two 

 species of Aigse were taken from the salt water pools along the 

 jetties. Mosses were represented by seven species, all common in 

 other parts of the State. Six lichens were collected along the 

 beach front, and a few species of fungi, which have not yet been 

 identified. 



As it almost certain that many plants have been overlooked, 

 it is hoped that students visiting the station, especially in the 

 spring or late autumn, will communicate to the writer any plants 

 they find, nol included in this list, in order that they may be later 

 added as a supplement. 



The question of nomenclature lias been very hard to decide. 

 In the main, this list conforms to Heller's 1898 Catalogut of 

 Xofllt American Plants. If the plant is described in Chapman's 

 Fh>ra. his name is also given. Names not included in Heller's 

 Catalogue, or in Chapman, are taken from Small, or from what- 

 ever author the writer obtained the description.
