8 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM 



Specimens were contributed from the counties of Fulton, Her- 

 kimer, Monroe, Oneida, Onondaga, Queens, New York, Richmond, 

 Washington and Wyoming. 



Correspondents have contributed extralimital specimens collected 

 in Alabama, Canada, California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of 

 Columbia, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New 

 Jersey, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah, Washington, 

 Wisconsin, Wyoming, and Porto Rico and Germany. 



The number of species of which specimens have been added to 

 the herbarium from current collections and contributions is 837, 

 of which 55 were not before represented in the State herbarium. 

 Of these, 6 are considered new or hitherto undescribed species. 



In addition, 2622 specimens have been placed in pasteboard 

 boxes, labeled and promptly incorporated into the herbarium from 

 the stored material. The following synopsis shows the number 

 of such specimens now added to the herbarium, but heretofore 

 stored away in bundles and not easily accessible : 



NEW YORK EXTRALIMITAL 



Agaricaceae 1160 293 



Polyporaceae 333 205 



Boletaceae 260 140 



Other families 118 113 



Total 1871 75i 



The total number of specimens added to the herbarium, from all 

 sources, is therefore 3459. This large addition is made possible 

 by the enlarged space now available in the new quarters. 



A list of the names of the added species (not including those 

 added from the stored material) shows which species are new and 

 which are not new to the herbarium. 



The number of those who have contributed specimens of plants 

 is 33. This list includes the names of those who sent specimens 

 for identification only, if the specimens were of such character as 

 to make them desirable additions to the herbarium. 



The number of identifications made is 830; the number of those 

 for whom they were made, no.
