nogams 1185, Aerogens 60, Musci 190, Hepaticae 45, Characeae 7. 

 Lickeus 240, Fungi 1200. Making a total of over 2900 species, these 

 figures being in round numbers, as the species are not numbered con- 

 secutively, an unfortunate lack, in an otherwise very satisfactory work. 



" Catalogue of the Phaenogamous and Acrogenous Plants of Suffolk 

 County, Long Island,'" by E. S. Miller, Wading River, and H. W. 

 Young, Aquebogue, P. 0., Long Island.'''' This contains Phaenogams

" Catalogue of plants growing without cultivation in the State of New 

 Jersey, with a descHption of all the species of Violet found therein, cVv. ," 

 by Oliver R. Willis, Ph. D." This catalogue, covering so wide and 

 varied a domain, enumerates, about 1390 species of Phaenogams, 40

 value. It is well printed, and will be a great assistance to any one 

 making a trip to the Pine Barrens.

 enumerated 1670 Phaenogams, 50 Aerogens, 220 Musci, Hepaticae and 

 Lichens, 90 fresh water Algae ; making 2030 in all. He accounts for 

 this large number by stating what the catalogue clearly shows, that 

 alike from the North, the South and the West, many peculiar species 

 of those regions have migrated to Nebraska, while the general charac- 

 ter of the flora is that of New England and the Northern tier of States.

 plants, prepared bx J. C. Arthur, Charles City." This enumerates 

 979 species, which are largely identical with those of the Eastern States. 

 Ericacae and Orchidacae are conspicuously lacking in representatives.
