STOCK THE AQUARIUM. 



163 



Callilriche vcrna I have obtained along with a few other 

 plants at Hastings on the Hudson, about twenty-one miles 

 from New York City. The Ccratophyllwm is to be procured 

 at Oyster Bay, Long- Island, and in Crystal Lake (Statcn 

 Island) where the white water lily and Brasema are also 

 found with Nitella jlexilis. 



Duckweed I have received from still ponds in the inte- 

 rior of New Jersey and from Oyster Bay (Long Island). 



Brief and unsatisfactory as these short notes of locali- 

 ties are, yet I am in hopes that they may prove of some 

 use to the amateur when searching for stock for his 

 Aquarium, and that they may lead him to find 



"Books in the running brooks, 

 Sermons in stonc3, ami good in everything."
