PLANT NOTES FROM TEMISCOUATA COUNTY 241 



aptly called "La rouge." Driving back from the lake, five or six ranges 

 of hills are crossed in as many miles. In the valleys are lakes bordered 

 with cedar swamps of Thuja occidentalis. The lakes are shallow and 

 have a muddy bottom. Cassandra calyculata, Kalmia angustifolia, 

 Ledum latifolium, are common on the borders. 



The road from Notre Dame du Lac to Riviere du Loup runs 

 partly through scattered farms and partly through woodland. The 

 land, where cleared and neglected, is covered with a dense growth of 

 Pteris aquilina and Epilobium spicatum. 



From Riviere du Loup I drove to Cacouna, a distance of four miles 

 down the St. Lawrence. The beach at Cacouna is rocky in some places 

 and at others sandy. On the sand Cakile Americana, Lathyrus mariti- 

 mus, Mertensia maritima, and Arenaria peploides were collected. On 

 the rocky points Plantago maritima was found abundant. 



The plants of the following list were mostly collected during the 

 month of August, at Notre Dame du Lac. A few are from Grand 

 Falls, N.B., where a stay of a few days was made. 



Dr. N. L. Britton has kindly annotated the list, and many thanks 

 are due him for his assistance and for suggestions in regard to nomen- 

 clature.
