ANNOTATED LIST OF PLANTS FROM BUCKEYE 



LAKE. 



The following list is based on the plants collected at Buckeye 

 Lake by myself and others. It is as yet incomplete as but few 

 of the Thallophyta have been listed. This is due to the lesser 

 prominence phytogeographically of this group and also to the 

 want of adequate means of identifying them. It is hoped in the 

 near future to greatly extend the list especially among the 

 Thallophyta. Gill fungi are quite abundant in the forest zone 

 •of the shore and larger islands but few have as yet been identi- 

 fied. The plants are given in order beginning with the most 

 primitive, the name of the series, class and family as well as 

 the technical name of each plant is given.
