PLANTS OF KENTUCKY. 



[From the Transylvania Journal of Medicine, <$c, No. XXXII.] 



_^__ 



During the past season of 1835 our attention has still been 

 directed to an examination of the plants of Kentucky, and we 

 are now enabled to add nearly two hundred species to the num- 

 ber contained in our preceding catalogues, published in the 

 XXIV and XXVIII numbers of this Journal. To this addition 

 many species have been contributed by our friend Mr. Griswol 

 from the immediate neighbourhood of Louisville, his presen 

 residence — a locality especially rich in paludal and aquatic 

 plants; and a few have been added from the borders of the 

 Ohio river, opposite the mouth of the Scioto, where they were 

 observed by Mr. Riddell, of Cincinnati. For accurately deter 

 mining a number of the Carices contained in this supplement, 

 we are indebted to Professor Dewey, of Pittsfield, Mass. who 

 has made this difficult genus the object of hi? particular study. 



Those species marked with the asterisk (*) are either new 

 or have not been introduced into any of the systems of Amer- 

 ican Botany.
