CATALOGUE OF PLANTS. 



plants of New England, and our mutual 

 knowledge of each other's species, deri- 

 ved from long intercourse and inter- 

 change of specimens, 1 believe that very 

 few if any mistakes have occurred as to 

 the species received from him. 



I have received specimens from Dr. 

 Chandler of all the plants given on his 

 authority, and Dr. Robbins saw and ex- 

 amined the species derived from Drs 

 Branch, Burge, and Reed, in the herba- 

 ria of those gentlemen. 



1 have also seen specimens from Mr. 

 Macrae, of nearly all the species given on 

 his authority. 



I have seen only a few specimens from 

 Mr. Carey, but have not hesitated to de- 

 pend on his known accuracy, and intimate 

 intercourse with Drs. Torrey and Gray. 



In preparing the Catalogue, I have gen- 

 erally followed, especially as to the nom- 

 enclature of the species, the truly excel- 

 lent North American Flora of Torrey and 

 Gray, now published as far as Vol. 2, No. 

 2, which corresponds with the first part 

 of the Catalogue as far as the genus Bi- 

 de7is, inclusive. As to the remaining part, 

 I have preferred such names and syno- 

 nyms as are most certain and familiar to 

 American Botanists, not always follow- 

 ing my own opinions, as such a catalogue 

 affords no room for their explanation and 

 support. Owing to the excellent mate- 

 rials at my disposal, tlie Catalogue is 

 doubtless as complete as that of any state 

 of the Union yet published, and I hope 

 that it will be found useful and accepta- 

 ble to Botanists.
