COMPARISON WITH OTHER FLORAS. 



It will be instructive to compare the results of our explorations with 

 those exhibited in other, similar catalogues. For this we have se- 

 lected several catalogues of certain representative sections of the State 

 of New York, and a few well-known catalogues of more distant re- 

 gions, where the work has been measurably thorough. Those selected 

 from N. Y. are: 1. ll Plants of Oneida Co. and Vicinity;" by John 

 A. Paine, Jr., 1864; printed in the 18th Annual Report on the State 

 Cabinet. This was a valuable catalogue, but covered in reality nearly 

 the whole State, excepting the southeastern and the Adirondack re- 

 gions. 2. "Plants of Buffalo and Vicinity;' 1 '' by the Buff. Soc. of Nat. 

 Hist., 1882. It includes the plants within a radius of thirty miles of 

 Buffalo. 3. " Plants growing without cultivation wilhiti five miles
