June 24. It is reported that many years ago a cargo of apples was wrecked 
there. Lonicera hirsuta Eaton and Ribes lacustris (Pers.) Poir. were fre- 
quent. A large bunch of Ribes prostratum L’Her was noticed on Sugar 
Island and at North Point Vaccinium canadense Kalm. At the upper end 
and on the west side of Thunder Bay Island were found Carex setifolia (Dew.) 
Britton, C. sartwellii Dew., C. crawei Dew., C. lanuginosa Michx., C. scir- 
poidea Michx., C. aurea Nutt., C. aquatilis Nutt., C. capillaris L., and C. 
marcida Boott., the last perhaps new to the state. Triglochin maritima L. 
was frequent. In the most shady parts were found a few specimens of Lyco- 
podium annotinum L., L. obscurum L., Calypso bulbosa (L.) Oakes, Coral- 
lorhiza corallorhiza (L.) Karst., and Trillium cernuum L. More in the 
open fine specimens of Corallorhiza striata Lindl. were frequent. Iris lacus- 
tris Nutt, in damp places on the island and at North Point, just coming 
into bloom, covered the ground. Fragaria canadensis Michx. and Primula 
farinosa L. were common, the latter just going out of bloom. Houstonia 
ciliolata Torr. was plentiful in open grassy places. At the north end along 
the edges of slightly projecting lime rock, and about little pools of water, 
where the rising waves often cover the rocky shore, was noticed the slimy- 
leaved Pinguicula vulgaris L., its first appearance reminding one of a violet. 
On the west side in rich shaded ground were noticed in abundance small 
specimens of Washingtonia divaricata Britton, new I think to the state. 
At North Point growing on sandy ridges, were found thrifty and abundant 
specimens in one place of Adlumia fungosa (Ait.) Greene, Capnoides aurea 
(Willd.) Kuntze, and Leucophyllis grandiflora (Hook.) Rydb. Anemone 
hudsoniana Richards, Coreopsis lanceolata L., Rubus odoratus L., Arabis 
holboellii Hornem. and Quercus rubra were common on sand ridges. 
There seems yet to be ample room for botanical research in that part of 
Michigan.
