Secretary of the Board of Regents of the 
University of the State of New York: 
Srr.—The following report of work done during the year 1869, 
toward perfecting the State Herbarium, is respectfully submitted : 
Since the date of my last report, specimens of four hundred 
and twenty-two species of plants have been poisoned, mounted and 
placed in the Herbarium, three hundred and fifty-four of which 
were not before represented in it. Sixty-eight are varieties previously 
unrepresented, or better specimens than had before been obtained. 
A list of the names is given in a paper marked (1). 
Specimens have been collected in the counties of Albany, Rensse- 
laer, Saratoga, Warren, Hamilton, Lewis, Oneida, Otsego, Schoharie, 
Greene, Putnam and Orange, representing three hundred and one 
species new to the Herbarium, two hundred and ninety-nine new to 
the State and eighty-seven new to science, two of them representing 
two new genera. A list of these is given in a paper marked (2). 
Speciniens have been contributed, or obtained by exchange or in 
naming, which were collected in the counties of Suffolk, Richmond, 
New York, Westchester, Rockland, Ulster, Greene, Oneida, Onon- 
daga and Erie. Of these, seventy-eight are new-to the Herbarium 
and not among my collections of the past season, seventy-six are 
additions to the flora of the State and three are new species. If 
these be added to the collected species, the total becomes three hun- 
dred and seventy-nine new to the Herbarium, three hundred and 
seventy-five new to the State, and ninety new species.
