Condition of the collections. With the aid of the assistant botanist, 

 Mr Louis Robbins, it has been possible to continue the rearrangement 

 of the material in the herbarium, making it more accessible for 

 study, and in addition to the mounting of the current collections, 

 exchanges and contributions, a large number of valuable specimens 

 of the Sheldon herbarium (presented in 19 14) have been mounted 

 and placed in the herbarium. Further progress in definitely marking 

 the many type specimens has been made. 



Additions to the herbarium. The number of specimens which 

 have been added to the herbarium from all sources during the past 

 year is 12 12. Of these, 901 were received in exchange or as con- 

 tributions; 311 specimens were collected by the staff in the counties 

 of Albany, Cayuga, Erie, Essex, Franklin, Hamilton, Madison, 

 Monroe, Nassau, Niagara, Oneida, Otsego, Ontario, Onondaga, 

 Rensselaer, Saratoga, Seneca, Queens, Wayne and Warren. The 

 number of species added which were new to the herbarium was 128, 

 which includes 33 specimens of ferns and flowering plants of the 

 northeastern states and 95 species of fungi. Of the latter, 18 species 

 are described as new.
