TO IB O T _A_ NISTS. 
I take pleasure in sending these lists of interesting pints to the Botanists of the U. S. and of Europe. 
The same cure has been taken to keep the present collection up to the standard of that of 1878, in point of quality; and in 
quantity much move material has been added to make the sets fully equal to those of our best collectors. To those who have 
secured my large Colorado collection of 187S these plants will prove valuable additions. The 150 additional species of this year 
will bring the whole Colorado list up to 1100 species. To these I now add over 500 species of Utah plants. Both lists (of 1879) 
contain nearly 15 new species and about 150 not reported from those sections before. 
I have left but two tull sets ot the Colorado collection of 1878, containing 800 species. The Utah plants arc put up in sets 
of 400 species, and the additional Colorado plants in sets of about 100 species. 
All plants starred are not in the sets, from lack of enough material, there being from 1 to 10 specimens each. Of these 
as well as the rest botanists can muke selections, and their Wants will he supplied as far as possible. 
All specimens are first-class, except those otherwise noted in the list. It is probable that most of the doubtful plants 
will prove to be new species. Proh Watson has not yet reported on the pints sent him, and therefore some are still in doubt. 
But notice will be given it corrections arc made. I have followed, the latest and best authorities in the arrangement of species 
in their natural order. 
The additional Colorado species were secured during May, June, and a part of July. The Utah plants between July 18th 
and Sept. 1st. I am very greatly indebted for the unusually large and interesting list of Utah and Colorado plants to the 
courtesy and generosity of the Supt. of the Union Pacific R. It., to Mr. A. A. Ball Genh Ticket Agt. of the Colorado Central 
R. R„ to John Risley of the D. & R. G. R. R.. to Mr. Sharp Supt. of the Utah Central ami Utah Southern R. R,„ and to J. 
G. Kennedy and (j. M. Young ot the Walls itch and Bingham Canon R. R. Had it not been for the interest which the mana¬ 
gers of these railroads take in the exploration and development of the far West, its natural resources would still be, to the world 
at large, unknown and valueless. And I am glad to bear testimony to the liberality which they are ever ready to extend to 
scientists seeking !o make known the resources of the West. 
It is my intention to give another full season to the elaboration of the plants of the little known section of southern Utah; 
and I expect to add 1000 species to the present Utah list. Moping that these lists, will interest you, 
I am respectfully yours, MARCUS E. JONES, A. M..
