Field Trip of June 1 



Interesting plants of Pine Barren, moist woods, and Leather- 

 leaf bog associations were seen by members of the Torrey Botanical 

 Club on Saturday afternoon, June i, on a field excursion led by 

 Prof. M. A. Chrysler, of the Department of Botany, Rutgers Uni- 

 versity, from Spotswood, N.J. 



In an area east of Spotswood, which is part of the "Pine Barren 

 Island," shown by Witmer Stone, in his map of the state in his 

 Flora of Southern New Jersey, the party found Prickly Pear Cac- 

 tus, Arenaria Caroliniana, Hudsonia tomentosa, in clumps quite 

 like those found on the seashore; the curious Euphorbiu Ipeca- 

 cuanhae, with its varied forms of -leaves and Lupinus perennis. 



Along the Manalapan river, both JVoodzvardia virginica and 

 areolata, seen for the first time together by many of the party, w^ere 

 found; with the handsome flowered Lyoriia niariaua, or Stagger 

 Bush, and Leucothoe raccmosa. Opportunities were excellent for 

 comparing Pinus rigida and cchinata. 



An unusual discovery was that of a hybrid oak, which had 

 characters suggesting the white oak in the lobation of the leaves, 

 or even such species as the Spanish, laurel or willow oaks, but 

 smaller chestnut oak, or the blackjack oak, in their size. Quercus 

 alba, stcllata, marilandica, and prinoidcs all grew within fifty feet 

 of this hybrid, and one might have several guesses as to its parents. 



In wet woods and a Chamaedaphne swamp near Helmetta, 

 which the party was able to reach quickly in automobiles provided
