Adnotation: The marine biological station of Misaki is situated on the 

 southern termination of the peninsula Miura in the province of Sagami. 



The details of the station is to be read of the account given by Prof. 

 K. Mitsukuri, the director of the station, in the journal of the College of 

 Science, Vol. I. P. 383. One point to be noticed is that the station was 

 afterward removed, and the present station stands on the promontry of 

 Koajiro half a mile west of Misaki harbour. The ground is of arenaceous 

 tuff of pliocene and is covered by a luxuriant vegetation. 



The collection of plants in the above list has been made in this res- 

 tricted area around the station. The total number of species is 178, i. e. 

 Pterydophytes and Conifers 11, Monocotyledons 35 and Dicotyledons 132. 

 Among the collection, we have two noteworthy plants, viz. Halophylla 

 ovalis and Oldenlandia paniculata, the former being a littoral species extend- 

 ing from British India to our Lutchu, but hitherto unknown to the further 

 north. My specimen has been obtained last summer by dredging from the 

 bottom of the small inlet Aburatsubo. The chief distribution of the Olden- 

 landia is British india, Malay, Polynesia and our Shikoku, and is also to 

 be met with here on the -mmy r.'cks ot' the shore. 



We may add here that the present vegetation of the environs of the 

 station would naturally undergo in course of time a gradual but c-'U-id.-ral V 

 change, and the comparison of the lists of the complete flora of a locality 

 so frequently visited by us as this biological station made in different inter- 

 vals of years will be a matter of interest and is desirable one.
