Salix Hookeriana and Baccharis pilularis were found on 
the margins. 
The sand dune region is doubtless the most interesting local- 
ity in this region. The small lakes contain a noteworthy flora, 
the most conspicuous plant being Vymphaea polysepala (Engelm) 
Greene, while a great variety of grasses and species of Carex 
and Juncus line the shores, with thickets of M/yrica californica, 
Gaultheria Shallon, Arctostaphylos tomentosa, Azalea occiden- 
talts, Vaccinium ovalifolium and Menziesia ferruginea. 
The principal sand.loving plants observed at this season 
of the year were: 
Polygonum paronychia C. & S. Godetia quadrivulnera Spach 
Abronia latifolia Esch. Gaertneria bipinnatifida Kuntze 
Cakile californica Heller Tanacetum huronense Nutt. 
Fragaria chiloensis (L.) Duch. Anaphalis occidentalis Heller 
Lupinus littoralis Dougl. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi Spreng. 
Glehnia littoralis (Gray) Schmidt 
It is, however, in the moist inclosed meadows of the sand 
dunes that one finds the richest flora, only a few characteristic 
species of which can be noted: 
Lycopodium inundatum L, Ranunculus flammula unalasch- 
Eriophorum Chamissonis Mey. ensis (Bess.) Ledeb. 
Carex pansa Bailey Argentina anserina (L.) Rydb. 
Carex mirata Dewey Hosackia parviflora Benth. 
Carex magnifica Dewey Trifolium fimbriatum Lindl. 
Carex Hindsii Clarke Viola adunca Smith 
Juncus falcatus EK. Meyer Gentiana sceptrum Griseb. 
Juncus oreganus Wats. Mimulus Langsdorfit Donn 
Hookera pulchella Salisb. Plantago maritima L. 
Hydastylus brachypus Bicknell Orthocarpus castilleoides Benth. 
Ibidium Romanzoffianum House Aster Douglasi Lindl. 
The high headlands south of the bay, like the sand dunes, 
are swept almost continuously by the cold dense fogs that blow 
in from the ocean, and that may account in part for the element 
of Canadian flora found in the sphagnum bogs and thickets not
