8 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM 
Specimens were contributed from the counties of Fulton, Her- 
kimer, Monroe, Oneida, Onondaga, Queens, New York, Richmond, 
Washington and Wyoming. 
Correspondents have contributed extralimital specimens collected 
in Alabama, Canada, California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of 
Columbia, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New 
Jersey, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah, Washington, 
Wisconsin, Wyoming, and Porto Rico and Germany. 
The number of species of which specimens have been added to 
the herbarium from current collections and contributions is 837, 
of which 55 were not before represented in the State herbarium. 
Of these, 6 are considered new or hitherto undescribed species. 
In addition, 2622 specimens have been placed in pasteboard 
boxes, labeled and promptly incorporated into the herbarium from 
the stored material. The following synopsis shows the number 
of such specimens now added to the herbarium, but heretofore 
stored away in bundles and not easily accessible:

The total number of specimens added to the herbarium, from all 
sources, is therefore 3459. This large addition is made possible 
by the enlarged space now available in the new quarters. 
A list of the names of the added species (not including those 
added from the stored material) shows which species are new and 
which are not new to the herbarium. 
The number of those who have contributed specimens of plants 
is 33. This list includes the names of those who sent specimens 
for identification only, if the specimens were of such character as 
to make them desirable additions to the herbarium. 
The number of identifications made is 830; the number of those 
for whom they were made, IIo.
