(359) (?) ; in the same situation, very minute. 



(360) Three small plants in a bad state, found on dry rocky 



places ; shrubs. 



(361) Hordeum sp., annual ; in dry plains ; common. 



(362) Tritieum sp., perennial ; a strong plant, 6 to 10 feet high, in 

 the plains and edges of rivers. 



(363) Juncus sp., perennial ; in moist soils, mountain springs ; 

 abundant. 



(364) Juncus sp., perennial ; this I think will agree with one collected 

 some time since in the low grounds ; this can only be an alpine. 



(365) Alopecurus sp., perennial; same place. 



(366) - (?) Gramineae, perennial ; a very strong grass, in all alluvial 

 soils ; 4 to 8 feet high. 



(367) Gramineae, perennial ; in moist grounds. 



(368) Gramineae, perennial ; on the dry sandy plains, near the Great 

 Falls. 



(369) Gramineae, perennial ; in the same place. 



The above seventy-three species are what I collected during my 

 journey of ten days up the river ; my time I consider well spent. Keturned 

 on the 6th of July, and from this time to the 19th employed putting into 

 order what were collected, writing, and making journeys in the neigh- 

 bourhood of my residence. 



July 6^-19^, collected the following : 



(370) Stachys sp., perennial ; flowers purple ; edges of woods, rivers, 

 pools, and moist soil, in shady places ; plentiful. 



(371) Lithospermum sp., annual; on the sandy banks of rivers, 

 among bushes ; 2 to 4 feet high ; flowers white. 



(372) Apocynum sp., perennial ; flowers white ; stems red ; leaves 

 opposite, sessile ; the bark of this plant affords the flax from which the 

 natives make their nets, &c. ; probably this will be A. cannabinum ; 

 the flax is collected from the withered stems in autumn ; 2 to 5 feet high ; 

 abundant in rich soil ; grows luxuriantly in a low moist place. 



(373) Sambucus sp. ; flowers yellowish-white ; a large shrub ; fruit 

 not yet ripe ; plentiful in all low woods, near the outskirts and sides of 

 pools. 



(374) Meniha sp., perennial; in all low grounds; flowers white, 

 tinged with red. 



(375) Orchis or Satyrium sp. viride 1 (?) ; flowers greenish- white ; in 

 dry subalpine plains, under the shade of individual trees ; has a fine effect. 



(376) Gramineae, perennial; on all moist low fields and woods; most 

 animals are very fond of this grass. 



(377) Campanula sp., perennial ; flowers white ; teeth of the corolla 

 reflexed after a few days' expansion ; a small curious species ; in thick 

 shady woods, among moss ; plentiful ; plant reclining. S. 



(378) Didynamia, Gymnospermia, perennial; calyx five-cleft, cam- 

 panulate ; corolla bilabiate, upper lip two segments, lower three ; flowers
