While the above are the most oonspiciuni'^ romponents of the flora, 

 they are ]\v no means confined to thi.s area. 



The followinfi list includes the peculiar Tine Barren species and 

 those which occur southward along the Atlantic coastal plane, Init 

 which find their northern limit in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. A 

 few of them do occur, it is true, on Long Island , in colonies which seem to 

 constitute northern pine barren islands, A few also occur in such 

 spots in West Jersey, but in the main these species are absent from 

 both West Jersey and the eastern coast strip, and in any case may be 

 regarded as typical Pine Barren species.
