A certain boggy meadow in a sag near the western edge of Table- 
top Mt. is, perhaps, the most notable of these bog-areas. This 
particular meadow, which lies southeast of the crest of the limy 
northwestern escarpment upon whose cliffs are found many of the 
plants of Group II, is so situated as to receive the drainage from 
various directions. From the northwest the drainage is directly off 
the calcareous slope and in part from a granitic slope; from the 
southwest comes a general seepage from a small area of serpentine; 
and from the southward the drainage is off the edge of the great 
granitic tableland. On account of the strong contrast between the 
flora of this small meadow and the extensive meadows of the strictly 
granitic district, the area was designated by Professor Collins and the 
writer ‘‘the Caleareous Meadow,” and it has been so indicated upon 
many herbarium labels. Yet the flora of this notable meadow con- 
tains many plants besides those of the calcareous alpine cliffs. The 
detailed list of alpine plants there recorded includes the following:
