FERNS OF THE YOSEMITE AND THE NEIGHBOR- 

 ING SIERRAS. 



By Alice Eastwood. 



A recent gift to the Herbarium of the California Academy 

 of Sciences, from Miss Cosy Hutchings, of a collection of 

 ferns from the Yosemite Valley, has drawn my attention to 

 the incompleteness of the list published by Mr. Burnham 

 in the Plant World, i, 8. To permit such a list to pass with- 

 out drawing attention to the omissions would mislead many. 



Mr. Burnham thinks that Mrs. Lemmon's list, published 

 in Hutching's " In the Heart of the Sierras" is probably too 

 full. This collection of Miss Hutching's to some extent 

 verifies Mrs. Lemmon's list. The three lists are as follows:
