It is truly astonishing that, in spite of the enor- 

 mous quantity of salt, which (according to approxi- 

 mative calculations) the waters of Carlsbad pour into 

 the Teple, viz. U. 786,884 of carbonate of soda, and 

 n. 1,132,92.3 of sulfate of soda, we do not find in 

 their vicinity any saline plants, except the Spergu- 

 laria marina, whilst near Franzensbad and several 

 wells of bitter waters, near Seydschitz, we meet 

 with saline and sea -shore plants. 



The numerous turfy grounds about Carlsbad offer 

 many rare plants. 



In the following List, the Genera are ranged 

 according to the natural method. In order to give a 

 more complete idea of the vegetation of the country, 

 we have not only included the plants peculiar to 

 forests, but the rarer ones, which this Flora offers, 

 though foreign to them. The knowledge of the cel- 

 lular or cryptogamic plants found about Carlsbad 

 (mosses , hepatics, lichens and algs) being hitherto 

 very imperfect, we must differ their enumeration 

 to another opportunity.

 Ranunculus nemorosua.
