GENERAL REMARKS. 13 



The following species of the Pacific region, 8 in number, extend through the Mexican into the Atlantic region : 



Eysenhardtia orthocarpa. Acacia Greggii. Chilopsis saligua. Juniperus occideutalis. 



Prosopis pubescens. Fraxinus pistacisefolia. Juglans rnpestris. Juniperus pachyphloea. 



Juglans rnpestris and Juniperus occidentalis reach their greatest development in the Pacific Coast region, and 

 extend through the Pacific- Mexican region into western Texas ; no other species are common to the Pacific Coast 

 forest and the Atlantic-Mexican region. The 6 remaining Pacific-Atlantic species belong to the Pacific-Mexican 

 region, just reaching western Texas. 



The following species of the Southern Pacific region extends into the Atlantic region : 



Salix amygdaloides. 



The following species of the Pacific forest, 12 in number, endemic to the interior arid region, do not extend 

 beyond its limits : 



Acer grandidentatum. Cratiegus rivularis. Populus angustifolia. . Pinus monophylla. 



Robinia Neo-Mexieana. Fraxiuus auoinala. Pinus flexilis. Picea pungens. 



Cercocarpus ledifolius. Quercus undulata. Pinus edulis. Yucca brevifolia. 



A detailed examination of the distribution of the arborescent species composing the North American forests

 region.

 the Atlantic region.

 rare and local.

Ptelia is represented by a single arborescent species of wide distribution in the Atlantic, reaching also the 

 Pacific region, where a frutescent species occurs, and by a second frutescent species of the south Atlantic region.

Simaruba, Amyris, Swietenia, Ximenia, are each represented by a single semi-tropical species. 



Bursera is represented by a single semi-tropical species and by a second frntescent species of the Pacific- 

 Mexican region. 



Ilex, an Atlantic genus, is represented by four arborescent and several frutesceut species, with its center of 

 distribution in the southern Atlantic region. 



Cyrilla and Cliftonia are each represented by a single species of the southern Atlantic region. 



Euonymus is represented by a widely-distributed arborescent species in the Atlantic, and by a frutescent species 

 in both the Atlantic and the Pacific regions. 



Myginda, Schcefferia, and Reynosla are each represented by a single semi-tropical species. 



Condalia is represented by one semi-tropical and by one species of the Atlantic-Mexican reaching the Pacific- 

 Mexican region. 



Rhamnus is represented by one arborescent and by one frutesceut species in the Atlantic, by two arborescent 

 and one frutesceut species in the Pacific region, and by one frutescent species common to the two regions. 



Ceanothus is represented by a single arborescent species in the Pacific Coast region and by several frutescent 

 species widely distributed through the Atlantic and the Pacific regions. 



Golubrina is represented by a single semi-tropical species. 



jfflsculus is represented by two arborescent and by three frutesceut species in the Atlantic, and by an arborescent 

 species in the Pacific region. 



Ungnadia, an endemic genus of the Atlantic-Mexican region, and just reaching the Pacific-Mexican region, is 

 represented by a single species.

 Pacific region, and by one semi-tropical species.
