and finally in 1878, Asa GRAY published the remaining part of the Gamo- 
petalae. For notices of Newfoundland plants, besides the volumes mentioned 
above, we are indebted to Dr. JoHn BELL who published.a list of plants 
collected by him on the west coast of the island in 1867, which plants are 
in the herbarium of McGill University. WAGHORNE (1893—95) published a 
paper on the Flora of Newfoundland, Labrador and Saint Pierre et Miquelon. 
In addition to the last mentioned paper, the flora of Labrador is re- 
presented by a number of publications. MEYER in 1830 issued his De plantis 
labradorieis, at Leipzig. JOHN RICHARDSON published in the Annals of the 
Canadian Botanical Society a list of plants collected on the island of Anticosti 
and the coast of Labrador. BUTLER in the Canadian Naturalist for September 
1870 has an article on Labrador plants. ROBERT BELL comes next with a 
paper published in the Geological and Natural History Survey of Canada, 
entitled Observations on the Geology, Mineralogy, Zoology and Botany of the 
Labrador Coast, Hudson’s Strait and Bay (1884). JOSEPH F. JAMES published 
the same year his Flora of Labrador, and the next year MACoUN in the 
Annual Report of the Geological and Natural History Survey of Canada his 
list of plants known to occur in the Labrador peninsula. Several other papers 
deal with the flora of Labrador, but two only of these can be mentioned here, 
namely, the chapter on botany in PACKARD’s book, entitled the Labrador 
Coast, a Journal of Two Summer Cruises to that Region (New York 1891) 
and the report of the BROWN-HARVARD expeditions to Labrador in 1900, where 
the botanic results of the expedition are given. 
Our knowledge of the Nova Scotian flora is derived chiefly from a list 
published in the Proceedings and Transactions of the Nova Scotian Institute 
of Natural Science for 1875—76 and to a Catalogue of the Flora of Nova 
Scotia by A. W. H. Linpsav with the ferns contributed by Rev. E. BALL and 
the fungi by ]J. SOMMERS, published in the fourth volume of the afore mentioned 
Proceedings, 
The New Brunswick flora is represented by a Catalogue of New Brun- 
swick plants published in the years 1878—79 by the Rev. JAMES FOWLER, 
professor of natural history, Queen’s College, Kingston, Ontario. The Bulletin 
of the Natural History of New Brunswick (1882—83) contains additional notices 
both of species and localities, while in the Botanical Gazette for 1885 appears 
an article entitled Botanical Features of New Brunswick by G. U. Hays. The 
same botanists published an account of the marine algae of New Brunswick 
in the fifth volume of the Proceedings and Transactions of the Royal Society 
of Canada and later lists of fungi and mosses noticed in the bibliography. 
Rev. JAMES FOWLER contributed to the last mentioned journal, an account of 
arctic plants growing in Brunswick and an additional paper on the same sub- 
ject published in the sixth volume. Prof. L. W. BaILEy in the first volume 
new series of the Canadian Naturalist furnishes some notes on the geology 
and botany of New Brunswick and Prof. W. F. GAnöNG studying the flora 
from the ecologic side is the author of a number of important DDR entitled
