Mr. A. J. Pieters, Assistant Botanist in the U. S. Dept, of 
Agriculture, has written an interesting and useful article* on the 
plants of western Lake Erie. This report should be read b) r all 
who are interested in the hydrophytes of Ohio, or in the flora 
and fauna of Lake Erie. I11 addition to some introductory 
remarks, the paper treats of the plants in Put-in-Bay, in Squaw 
Harbor, near Gibraltar Island, in Hatchery Bay and in the open 
lake, and the plants of East Harbor. The swamp vegetation is 
also discussed, including the plants in the Portage River swamps 
and in the swamps about Sandusky Bay. The ecological condi- 
tions and the ecological adaptations of the flora are treated quite 
fully, and at the end are given alphabetical lists of the plants 
studied, including angiosperms, stoneworts and desmids.
