Suringar visited Bonaire from Febr. 19—25 and made the follo- 

 wing expeditions: 



Febr. 19 Fontein. 



„ 20 Rincon, Goto Baai, Slagbaai, Brandaris. 



„ 21 Slagbaai. 



„ 22 Boca Onima, Klein Bonaire (Molengraaff). 



„ 28 Playa. 



„ 24 Bolivia. 



„ 25 Witte pan. 



„ 26 Playa, Klein CuraQao. 



Suringar's collections are preserved in the State Herbary et Leyden , 

 the plants bear no numbers, no more than those from the other 

 islands. Since the sites are only indicated by a single word and 

 consequently nothing can be concluded about the frequency of 

 occurrence, I did not attempt in the Systematical part of this 

 Flora to cite all these plants, as I did in the first part of the 

 Flora of the W. I. Islands. In this latter case Suringar's notes 

 sufficiently indicated the place, tliese islands being so much smaller 

 and easier to survey. It seemed sufficient in the second part of 

 the Flora to mention whether the plants had been collected by 

 Suringar in the islands or not. 



The circumstance that I could not get the whole of Suringar's 

 plants at my disposal during some time, rendered an extensive 

 account of his expeditions impossible and, in my opinion, super- 

 fluous, since nearly all parts visited by him were also studied by 

 myself, as will appear when his expeditions are compared with mine. 

 The labels of a great part of the Aruba plants show that many 

 of them were collected by Pastor v. Koolwijk, so that Koolwijk 

 is not a site, as the Symb. Antill. wrongly mentions in a few places.
