FANNY D. BERGEN. 
THE present paper embraces the common names of North Amer. | 
ican plants, from Ranunculacez as far as Umbellifers, that have been 4 
added to my list since the publication of a preliminary list in the 
Journal of American Folk-Lore for April-June, 1892. The names 
_ under the remaining orders of phanerogams and a few names of ; 
cryptogamous plants will follow at an early date. : 
I would like once more to call the attention of botanists and folks : 
lorists to the interest and value of a somewhat complete collection 
of the kind which has been made in England, and to request that 
readers who are interested in the matter will kindly forward to me 
any names which they may know. 4 
A large proportion of those which follow have been gathered e 4 
correspondents or by oral communications, though some ee | 
taken from published local floras which are not readily accessible ’ 
botanists in general. 4 
It is ieeniite publicly to thank every individual who has ia 
tributed to my collection of plant-names, but the following or 
have extended such substantial assistance that it would be + ake 
not to mention here their names in connection with the — i
