Director s Annual Report. 5 



the plants reported from here wavS collected, which has been con- 

 siderably augmented by a set collected by Mr. G. C. Miinro, who 

 obtained a few not in fruit or flower during my visit. Before this 

 year there was little or nothing from this island in our herbarium. 

 For courtesies extended we are indebted to Messrs. Cecil Brown, 

 George C. Munro, Charles Gay and William Dickson. 



"During a month's vacation in September a few notes were 

 made on the vegetation of Kauai. A few short trips have been 

 made on Oahu at various times, mainly to study the ecology. 



"The following list shows the number of specimens added to 

 the herbarium during the year. All contributors should be 

 thanked for their generous interest in this department.

From the Curator of Pulmonata I quote as follows: 



"The last year has been an extremely interesting and valu- 

 able one. Probably more specimens have been added to the 

 collection than in any other year, but fewer specimens have been 

 catalogued owing to the time spent in studying and in the field.
