absence of oak, sycamore, hickory, walnut, hackberry, elm and 

 basswood. 



Headquarters were established at the State Forest Camp on 

 Barber Point, Cranberry Lake, about seven miles from Cranberry 

 Village and some eight miles from Wanakena. The collections 

 covered a diversity of locations and the paper is based on records 

 of three summers, collections being made at odd times by Drake 

 in 1917 and 1919 and the past summer (1920) by Osborn and 

 Drake together. 



For convenience the list of species follows the excellent cata- 

 logue by Van Duzee,* but in many cases the authors do not con- 

 sider the sequence of genera or species as representing the most 

 probable lines of evolution of the groups or the natural affinities. 

 No synonomy or specific bibliography has been included since these 

 are so admirably covered by the above mentioned author. Only 

 references to the more recent papers or to such as are especially 

 desirable for the accommodation of readers of this paper are cited. 



LOCATION OF COLLECTING STATIONS 



1. State Forest Camp (Fig. 2) : The principal collecting sta- 

 tion was the state forest camp and other of the more favorable 

 areas in the immediate vicinity. In fact about 95 per cent of the 

 species herein listed were recorded for the Barber tract. The 

 different associations of this area are quite representative of the 

 Cranberry Lake region and includes forests, swamps, marshes, 

 bogs, hills, flows, tote-roads, trails, burns, and streams.
