has chiefly been followed in the arrangement and nomenclature 

 of the list, and the territory covered is described as the Susque- 

 hanna valley and adjacent hills of Tioga county. This territory 

 includes the greater part of the southern half of the county. It 

 is apparently rich in species, the list containing a remarkable 

 number for such a limited region. It has therefore seemed to me 

 desirable that this list should be published. It, with the Flora 

 of the Upper Susquehanna by W. N. Clute, will give a very fair 

 knowledge of what species of flowering plants and ferns occur 

 in the southern central part of our State and will be an aid in 

 determining the range of little known and rare species. It has 

 therefore been added to this report as appendix F.
