WEST X'IRGINIA GEOt-OGICAL SUR\'EY 9 



(43'; Edward SCtrieby) Steele spent the latter half of August and 

 t^he first half of September, 1898, collecting, with the aid of 

 ivirs. Steele, in the neighborhood of Aurora, Preston County. 

 He secured about 325 numbers, the first set of which he de- 

 posited in the U. S. National Herbarium. 



In 1903, and again in 1905, he collected near Old Sweet 

 Springs, Monroe County; in 1906 he spent one day at White 

 Sulphur Springs, Greenbrier County, searching particularly for 

 plants of the genus Laciniaria. In 1910, while collecting in 

 Garret County, Maryland, he utilized a small part of his time 

 gathering specimens across the line in Grant County, W. Va. ; 

 this he also did in 1911, in Hardy County, while occupied prin- 

 cipally on the Virginia slopes of North Mountain, near Orkney 

 Springs. Those later collections are also deposited in the U. S. 

 National Herbarium, Washington. 



(44) Pollard & Maxon.. Charles L(ouis) Pollard and William R(alph) 



Maxon collected during the latter part of August, 1899, in 

 Fayette County, near Quinnimont and in Summers County, 

 near Lowell. Of the 125 numbers they secured about 30 were 

 new to the Flora of the State as known at that date. Their 

 plants are deposited in the U. S. National Herbarium, Wash- 

 ington, D. C. (See "Proceedings of the Biological Society of 

 Washington, Vol. 14:161-163). 



(45) E(dward) L(yman) Morris, Curator, Brooklyn Institute Museum, 



while engaged in field work for the U. S. Fish Commission in 

 1900, made a collection of plants in that region of the State 

 Ij'ing south of the New, Greenbrier and Kanawha' Rivers in 

 Summers, Monroe, Jlercer, McDowell, Raleigh and Wyoming 

 Counties. His collection of 397 numbers was made in July and 

 August of a particularly dry season ; it is deposited in the 

 National Herbarium, Washington, D. C. (See his "Some 

 Plants of West Virginia" in the Bulletin of the Biological So- 

 ciety of Washington, Vol. 13:171-183 (1900). 



(46) Henry C(urtis) Beardslee spent the Summer of 1900 collecting 



principally fleshy fungi, in the neighborhood of Brookside, Pres- 

 ton County. His collections, numbering about 600 specimens, are 

 in his private herbarium at Asheville, N. C. (See his "Notes 

 on the Boleti of West Virginia" in "Torreya." Vol. 1:37-39). 



(47) Captain K. D. Walker, of Fairmont, West Virginia, contributed 



a few plants of his collecting to the West Virginia. Experiment 

 Station, in 1891. They are from Little Falls, Monongalia County, 

 and are deposited in the herbarium of the Station. 



(48) C(urtis) G(ates) Lloyd, of the Lloyd Herbarium, Cincinnati, 



Ohio, collected for about a fortnight at Eglon, Preston County, 

 in 1901. His specimens, principally fungi, are preserved in the 

 Lloyd Herbarium, Cincinnati, Ohio. 



(49) Prof. W(illiam) A(shbrook) Kellerman, late professor of 



Botany in the University of Ohio, collected, principally fungi, 

 at Durbin and Marlinton, Pocahontas County, in August, 1902. 

 I am unfortunately unable to establish the extent of or locate his 

 specimens at this time.
