CATALOGUE OF 



FLOWERING PLANTS. 



A FULL or descriptive catalogue of all the species of flowering 

 plants would occupy more space than can be allotted to this de- 

 partment of the natural history of the mountain. An enumeration 

 of the most prominent genera, or common families, with a number 

 of the most prominent species, will indicate something of the pre- 

 dominating influences grouped under the name of habitat of the 

 region, as shown by the plant. With the plants already named in 

 the text, we are presented with the following : *
