HARPER: DISTRIBUTION OF PLANTS OF THE COASTAL PLAIN 603 
west of Newport News. Frequent the rest of the way through 
Virginia and Maryland, and in the Cretaceous region of New 
Jersey. 
PINUS GLABRA Walt. 
Observed only in the Savannah River bottoms near Garnett, 
South Carolina; the first time I had seen it northeast of Georgia. 
Very few South Carolina stations for it are known to botanists 
now living. It is interesting to note that Michaux saw what is 
probably this species in the vicinity of Parker’s Ferry on the 
Edisto on April 21, 1787, though it is not mentioned in his Flora 
Boreali-Americana. 
PINUS SEROTINA Michx. 
Common enough nearly everywhere south of Dismal Swamp, 
but seen only once in Virginia this time, that about two miles 
south of Fentress, Norfolk County. 
Pinus TAEDA L. 
Common in all the regions passed through, to a point in Caro- 
line County, Virginia, about 69 miles south of Washington, D. C. 
(Prof. Ward, in traveling southward over approximately the same 
route 24 years earlier, first saw it a little farther north, and pub- 
lished some interesting notes on it the following year.*) It has 
been reported from the District of Columbia and even from West 
Virginia,} but it does not seem possible that it could be indigenous 
in those places, especially the last, for if it was, its inland limit 
would trend northwestward,{ instead of northeastward like many 
other species in this latitude. 
Pinus Eviiotru Engelm. 
Last seen about thrée miles north of Sycamore, Barnwell 
County, South Carolina. There can be little doubt that this is 
its northern limit, or essentially so, for there is no tree whose 
range, in proportion to the area covered by it, is easier to map.§
