FLORA OF NEWFOUNDLAND — WAGHORNE. 361 



tion those of Professor Macoun's, the only exception, perhaps, 

 being in the case of plants named by specialists since his volume 

 •came out. 



My Labrador limits are those which mark the jurisdiction of 

 Newfoundland, the northern extremity being Cape Chudleigh, 

 and the southern, Blanc Sablon, in the western part of the Straits 

 of Belle Isle. But no doubt several plants, found south of my 

 range, have been included in those cases where no definite locality 

 lias been adduced. 



It will be seen that in \ny notes the Newfoundland plants 

 come first, then those from Labrador, lastly, the plants of the 

 Flora Miguelonensis. 



As I am unable to supply adequate and reliable notes as to 

 •dates of flowering and habitat, I have judged it wise to append 

 notes on these subjects from the various authorities quoted. 



As to localities and tJie distribution of the plants of this 

 flora, it may be stated that, at least as far as definite places men- 

 tioned are concerned, wnth the exception of the plants I collected 

 in September, 1891, in White Bay and adjacent places on the 

 north-east coast, very nearly all the plants are from southern 

 Newfoundland. My own parish of New Harbor, in Trinity Bay 

 (where most of my Newfoundland plants were found), is on the 

 south-east coast. Then the St. John's neighborhood — as was to 

 be expected — has received some attention as to its flora Travel- 

 ling west on the southern coast we come to Placentia Bay, where 

 I have collected a little. About midway on this coast lies For- 

 tune Bay, where I was located for nearly a year in 1888. Just 

 off Fortune Bay are the French possessions of St. Pierre et 

 Miquelon. As far as my information goes, the western part of 

 the southern coast has not been explored. Turning the S. W* 

 •extremity of Newfoundland, Cape Ray, we come upon the field 

 of the researches of Messrs. Bell and Reeks, for the last-named 

 gentleman, I believe, chiefly explored about Cod Roy. So that 

 tiie districts which have been the most closely examined are the 

 middle of the southern coast, and the southern extremities of the 

 western and eastern coasts. 



As to the Labrador plants, the field of our own collections was
