Hymenocallis arenicola, the latter growing luxuriantly on many of 
the sandy beaches of the former island. 
Among the interesting plants found on Andros that have not 
been reported from New Providence. are the following: Agave 
vigida, Casearia aetioides, Pithecolobium Hystrix, Peltophorum 
adnatum, Ichthyomethia Piscipula, Euphorbia cassythoides, Lucuma 
pauciflora, Voyria Mexicana, Ipomoea repanda, Petitia Domingensts, 
Vitex ilicifolia, Mimusops Floridana and Morinda Royoc. With 
very few exceptions the plants found on the savannas of Andros 
were wanting on New Providence and as they formed the most 
interesting feature of the Andros flora, it may be worth while to 
give the full list of plants found there. They were Saddatia cam- 
panulata, Eustoma exaltatum, Bletia verecunda, Euphorbia buxifolia, 
Dichromena colorata, Cladium Jamaicense, Merosphaerum pectina- 
tum, Gyrostachys tortilis, Flaveria linearis, Hypoxis juncea, Mitreola 
sessilifolia and М. petiolata, Pinguicula pumila, Buchnera elongata, 
Gerardia purpurea апа С. maritima, Polygala Boykinii and Р. - 
brizoides, Samolus ebracteatus, Limodorum tuberosum, Aletris 
bracteata, Chiococca alba parviflora, Buxus Bahamensis, Helio- 
tropium nanum, Crassopetalum coriaceum, Rhamnidium punctatum, 
and Terminalia spinosa. Of these only the first six were found 
on New Providence and in addition to Rhamnidium punctatum, 
were the only ones found on Andros.elsewhere than the savannas. 
On Andros itself, no Cactaceae were found in the northern 
part of the island, while Cereus Swartzii and two species of Opun- 
tia were quite common in the southern part, as they are said to be 
on the more southerly islands of the group. We also noticed that, 
whereas Vs alata was very common on the northern half of the 
island, below that it was replaced by the allied species Vitis tri- 
fohata. 
On both islands mosses, lichens, and fungi were noticeably 
infrequent, and of the few species of each that were found none 
were common.
