following list, and most of them, with a few additional forms, 

 occur also on the shore of the Bay of Fundy. 



No examination, so far as I am aware, has yet been made of 

 the salt springs in this and the neighboring province of Nova 

 Scotia, for maritime plants. Perhaps a few of the species which 

 once grew around these springs, when they were at the margin of 

 the sea, may yet linger there. Ranunculus Cymhalaria was 

 collected at Fredericton by the late Dr. Robb, as appears from a 

 specimen in the Herbarium of the University of that city, which 

 is now distant 80 miles from the salt water.
