The images appearing here are the best quality
possible considering the condition and legibility
of the original copy and in iteeping with the
filming contract specifications.

Original copies In printed paper covers are filmed
beginning with the front cover and ending on
the last page with a printed or illustrated Impres-
sion, or the bacic cover when appropriate. All
other original copies are filmed beginning on the
first page with a printed or illustrated impres-
sion, and ending on the last page with a printed
or illustrated impression.

The last recorded frame on each microfiche
shall contain the symbol -^ (meaning "CON-
TINUED"), or the symbol V (meaning "END"),
whichever applies.

Maps, plates, charts, etc., may be filmed at
different reduction ratios. Those too large to be
entirely included in one exposure are filmed
beginning in the uppei left hand corner, left to
right and top to bottom, as many frames as
required. The following diagrams illustrate the
method:

Les Images sulventes ont *t6 reproduites «vec le
plus grand soln, compte tenu de la condition et

POLYdONTM.

All our hei'burium specimenw of this gonus hiivo been ex-
amined by Prof. John K. Small, who has made several im-
portant (change- in our determinations. lie had not our
herbarium sheets at the time his revision of the Poly-
(jonacew was published so that the distribution ol' the Can-
adian species of Folyyonwii as given below will !.freatly ex-
tend the range of many North American species. I follow
Prof. Small's arrangement of the species throughout.

(1.) P. viviPARUM, Linn.

Throughout Canada. Our mo.st northern specimens are
from Lat. 64° 2G', Long. 100" 45', 1893. (Jas. W. Tyrrell.)
and Great Bear Lake llivei-. Lat. ilb'^, 1892. (Afiss E.
Taylor.)

(2.) P. Persicaria, Linn.

From Prince Edward Island to Vancouver Island.
Abundant throughout the settled parts of Canada.

(3.) P. Careyi, Olney.
Wet sandy banks, Moon River, Muskoka. Ont , 1878.
■(Burgess.) The oivly-Canadian-strrtiSn.

(4 ) P. hydropiperoides, Michx,

We hcve chis species from but one locality, Belleville,
Ont. Many of the references given by Prof Macoun (Cat.
Can. Plants, Vol. I, p. 411), probably refer to other species.
This plant is certainly not of as general distribution in
Canada as is supposed, or our herbarium wr,uld contain
specimens from more stations than one.

Of this species and var, strigosum Prof Small w'i'ites, " P.
hydropiperoides, as well as the var. strigosum, has an almost
invariable character which it seems, has never been re-
corded. The stem or branches -alwtiys produce, at the dis-

(7.) P. Pennsylvanicu.m, L.

(Jommori from Nova Scotia to Western Ontario.

(S.) P. LAI'ATIIIKOLUIM, L.

Common from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Prof. Small
thinks this species has been introduced wherever found.
While this may be so in most cases, we have specimens
from remote regions that are without doubt indigenous.

do not believe, tliat Ibis plant, " wberever found," in Canada,
lias been introduced. Prof. Small found among our wpeci-
mens no representatives of P. marifimum, and as our speci-
mens of P. Rai/i are from widely separated and remote
localities on tbe Atlantic atid Pacific coasts, it seems prob-
able that we have but one species in Canada, and that it is,
at least in part, indigenous.

Not rare frotn Ontario to British Columbia. Wo have
apparently no P. tcnue in Canada.

Prof. Small says of this species, " P. Douglasil can be
distinguished from its relative P. tenue at a glance, and is
beautifully distinct, as Prof. Greene has pointed out, by its
one-ribbed leaf in place of the three-, ibbod of P. tenue, and
the much longer, narrower and pedicelled, droopi.ig fruit,
instead of the short, thick, sessile, ereot fruit of that plant."
