the Ohio River near New Albany, but at present there is not an oak 
tree along the Ohio River bottoms for thirteen miles below New 
Albany. 
Quercus marilandica Muenchausen. Buiack Jack OaKk. Trees 
have been seen in Knox County that were sixty feet high and over a 
foot in diameter. 
Quercus Michauxii Nuttall. A tree five feet in diameter was 
noted in Shawnee Park just below Louisville, Ky. It was noted in 
the flat woods north through Clark and Scott Counties and extending 
through the southwest corner of Jennings County into Jackson County 
to north of White River. A tree in a field near the roadside in the 
White River bottoms about three miles east of Medora is 139 inches 
in circumference, breast high. Between Seymour and Jeffersonville 
this species is usually in low beech woods, and in many places is quite 
frequent. 
Quercus Prinus Linneus. CHESTNUT Oak. This species reaches 
its northern limit in Indiana on the south side of Salt Creek in Brown 
County. Its western limit is the ridge just east of Tell City in Perry 
County and the knobs of the west side of Martin County. Two 
large trees on the bluff of the Ohio River at Marble Hill in Jefferson 
County is its known eastern limit. 
Ulmus alata Michaux. Wanoo Fim. The size, range and habitat 
of this tree has been studied with the following results: When found 
on rocky bluffs in sterile soil it is quite a small, straggling tree, but 
when it grows in other situations it becomes a large tree. A tree 
was found in a black and white oak woods four miles south of Marengo 
in Crawford County that measured forty-nine inches in circumference 
breast high. It is to be noted that as yet this species has been found 
only in the unglaciated area of the state, although in three places it 
has been noted to reach this line and not found beyond it. It has 
not yet been reported east of Harrison County. It is found as far 
west as the hills of the western part of Martin County associated 
with chestnut oak and chestnut. Going south I have found it on‘a 
chestnut oak ridge about one mile north of West Baden. In Dubois 
County it is found on the bluffs of the Patoka River near Jasper. 
Many of the shade trees of Jasper are of this species. In Perry County 
it is frequent along the rocky bluffs of the Ohio River. It was noted 
on a sterile oak knob about nine miles north of Rockport in Spencer 
County, associated with post oak. In Warrick County along Pigeon 
Creek, about six miles west of Boonville, a tree was noted that 
measured eighty-five inches in circumference breast high, and was 
twenty-five feet to the first branch. The tree was growing in a low
