Sir—Since the date of my last report specimens of two 
hundred and forty-six species of plants have been mounted 
and placed in the State Herbarium. A list of these is 
marked (1). : 
Specimens have been collected in the counties of Albany, 
Essex, Rensselaer, Hamilton and Sullivan. These represent 
one hundred and twenty species new to the Herbarium, and 
one hundred and eighteen species new to the State. Ninety- 
seven are fungi, of which thirty-nine are considered new 
or undescribed species. A list of plants collected is 
marked (2). 
Specimens of thirty-one. species new to the Herbarium and 
notamong my collections of the past season have been received 
from correspondents. These were collected in the counties of 
Dutchess, Erie, Onondaga, Oneida, Saratoga, Ulster, Suffolk 
and Westchester. If these be added to those of my own col- 
lecting, the total number of additions to the Herbarium, the 
past season, becomes one hundred and fifty-one species. This 
does not include extra-limitat species, specimens of a con- 
siderable number of which have been received. A list of con- 
tributors and their contributions is marked (3).
