The first effort toward a systematic study of the native plants of this region was made by Pres. Edward Hitchcock! about 1817. The results of his explorations were published in 1829, and for many years very little was added to this list except what Prof. Tuckerman and others published in contemporary scientific journals. In 1875 Prof. Edward Tuckerman, ? who for many years occupied the chair of his- tory and botany in Amherst College, published his “ Flora-Amherst- iensis,”’ in co-operation with Mr. Charles C. Frost, of Brattleboro, Vermont. This list is based on Pres. Hitchcock’s previous catalogue, but is much more extensive, including as it does an elaborate list of mosses, liverworts, lichens and fungi, and in allit contains nearly 3,000 species and varieties. It is unusually complete for its day, and repre- sents the work of skilled observers and systematists. Besides being largely responsible for the flowering plants and vas- cular cryptogams contained in the Flora, Prof. Tuckerman contrib- uted a very elaborate list of lichens, a most perplexing group of plants. He will always be remembered as the American pioneer in the study of lichens, and was from the first a thorough master of this difficult group, while he lived having no competitors. Even today his work remains unsurpassed and ranks as a classic. The comprehensive list of mosses, liverworts, fungi, etc., was con- tributed by Mr. Charles C. Frost, and quite a few of the fungi bear his name as authority. This self-educated man, whose trade was that of cobbler, spent his leisure moments in the study of these difficult groups. In 1887 Dr. N. A. Cobb,* then a teacher of science at Williston Seminary, but later government pathologist in New South Wales and now with the Bureau of Plant Industry, Washington, D. C., published a revised edition of Prof. Tuckerman’s catalogue, in which new plants were added and the boundaries of others not so well known extended. Since Dr. Cobb’s catalogue in 1887 a few additions to the plants of the region have been published, appearing largely in Rhodora. Professional collectors and students from the various educational institutions located in the Connecticut valley have for years been active in collecting herbaria, and some new and rare plants have been 1 E.

Tuckerman—Catalogue of Plants growing without Cultivation within Thirty Miles of Amherst College. 2 N, A. Cobb.—A List of Plants Found Growing Wild within Thirty Miles of Amherst. iv brought to light. But since 1875 the study of botany has undergone many changes, and its present day problems differ greatly from those of former times. The systematist’s conception of a species has also changed, a finer discrimination in determining species being required at the present time. The nomenclature question, the constant split- ting up of species and the revision of families and genera are render- ing the subject more perplexing and less fascinating to at least the true nature loving botanist. In the present instance it has been our intention to bring the flora up to date and modify its scope to include the three counties com- prising the Connecticut valley. These counties, whose boundaries are fairly uniform, represent a section extending from Connecticut to the New Hampshire and Vermont lines. The Connecticut valley forms a distinct area differing quite widely in its soil and climatic conditions from other sections of the state, the elevation ranging from less than 100 feet to only a few hundred feet. Here the elm reaches its great- est perfection, and on the higher slopes the rock maple finds its most congenial environment. The eastern part of the territory resembles that of Worcester county, and the general elevation ranges from 400 to about 1,200 feet; while the western section, which has an elevation of 800 to 2,200 or more feet, and which is farther from the coast, re- sembles in many ways southern Vermont. On the higher elevations of our western range the golden hawkweed becomes a pest in fields, as in Vermont, although in the Connecticut valley this plant is not common enough to be a nuisance. Here, too, the soil conditions are more primitive, therefore humus plants are found more abundantly than elsewhere in the state. In this region grow forests of beech and red spruce, and the balsam fir and hackmatack are common. The diversified forms of plants which characterize a region and which we term its flora, represent adaptations to a more or less con- genial environment, and even during the relatively brief period of the settlement of New England many of our introduced plants undoubtedly became modified to a certain extent. Even species which are adapted to a much warmer climate than our own frequently prove themselves as hardy as our native species, whereas on the other hand, quite a few of our native trees, like the sycamore and others, are often affected by winter killing. There are many tactors which play an important part in the distri- bution of plants of which we know little, and the problems involved are difficult of solution. Variations in the humus content, in the soil moisture or light intensity, may completely exterminate a species in a given locality. Continued deforestation has greatly modified our flora, many species having become rarer. Humus has played a very important role not only in affecting the predominence of certain Vv species but in modifying their growth. Many such species as hem- lock, canoe birch, beech, hobblebush, round-leaved cornel (Cornus circinata L’Her) and others find less congenial conditions than for- merly. The hemlock has declined from a tree second in importance in the primitive forests to one of slight importance at the present time. Such plants as Hydrophyllum virginianum and canadense, cer- tain orchids and many others were no doubt always more or less rare or local, but at present they are very rare. In colonial times the wild strawberry was quite abundant in Massachusetts, and even less than a century ago it was fairly plentiful, but at present it is of no economic: value except in our western territory. Some of the plants observed by Dr. Hitchcock nearly a century ago and included in this list have- not been found since his time, and others have become rare. On the other hand, deforestation and the consequent cultivation of much of our soil has modified the environment to such an extent that the wil- low, birch, goldenrod, aster, violet, bluet, Lespedeza and a host of others are found more abundantly than formerly, and as Prof. Ezra Brainerd has pointed out, there is a marked tendency for violets to hybridize when growing in the open. Many of our introduced plants were brought from Europe in early times. Some of them have been growing without much change for many years, while others have so adapted themselves to our condi-. tions that they have become troublesome weeds. In the past twenty- five years many such plants have been introduced through grass seed and by means of commercial relations with other countries. Many of the plants which Prof. Tuckerman observed as rare in 1875 are now common enough, such, for example, as Stellaria graminea L., Digi-- taria humifusa Pers., Leontodon autumnalis L>and Cerastium vulga- tum L., etc. On the other hand, some of our introduced plants have not shown any tendency to spread, and in some cases they have ap-- parently not held their own. Among such plants might be mentioned Tussilago Farfara L., Sedum, buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica L.),. various dooryard weeds and plants used for medicinal purposes in former times, such as lovage (Levisticum officinale Koch.), wormwood (Artemisia absinthium L.), catnip (Nepeta Cataria L.), horseradish (Radicula Armoracia L.), henbane (Hyoscyamus niger L), horehound (Marrubium vulgare L.), and Canada thistle, which forty years ago. was considered a more or less serious pest, but is not now trouble- some. These plants were in former times considered essential by most well regulated families, but now, along with the lilac, Lombardy poplar, live-forever and the old garden rose, they may be found per-- sisting under unfavorable conditions, serving merely as landmarks of. once thriving homesteads. vi Some of the more important introduced species not noted by Prof. Tuckerman, which are more or less common now, are Trifolium hy- bridum L., golden hawkweed, Bromus tectorum L., Russian thistle (Salsola), Galinsoga, Berteroa incana (L) DC., Thymus Serpyllum Ls Cynodon Dactylon (L.) Pers., Lysimachia Nummularia L., Lychnis Flos-cuculi L. and Lychnis alba Mill. Impure seed is the most important factor in the introduction of harmless and noxious species, and from 75 to 1co or more different species may occur ina particular sample or lot of grass seed. The impurities run from 5 to 25 per cent or more, and although frequently harmless, 10 or 15 per cent of noxious weeds are sometimes present in grass or clover seed. Since seed are sent from all over the United States and imported from foreign countries, it follows that a great variety of plants may be introduced into a particular region. Black medick, Canada thistle, charlock, chicory, crabgrass, chickweed, dod- der, various docks and plantains, green foxtail, goosefoot, lady’s thumb, ragweed, sheep sorrel, wild carrot, witch grass, yellow foxtail and many others constitute the principal impurities in seed. Dame and Collins,! in their ‘Flora of Middlesex county,” enumerate 460 naturalized and adventive species and varieties which have become more or less established in that region. In the preparation of this list Iam under obligations to different ones whose names will be found throughout the text. This is espec- ially true of Mr. Ray E. Torrey, of the 1912 class of this College, who has rendered valuable assistance all through the work. Mr. Torrey has also been of great service, from his extensive collecting and criti- cal knowledge of our flora, in furnishing data in regard to the present range of certain species. I am also indebted to Prof. A. Vincent Osmun, my colleague, who has given much attention to our native ferns and violets, and to Miss Jessie V. Crocker for assistance in seeing the work through the press. Dr. W. H. Chapin, of Springfield, has kindly furnished notes in regard to the plants in that locality, and Mrs. Maria L. Owen’s long experi- ence in collecting and studying the native plants has been helpful. Mr. Luman Andrews, of Southington, Connecticut, who is at present making an exhaustive study of the plants about Springfield, has fur- nished a large amount of data concerning new finds, as well as extend- ing our knowledge of the range of other species. Mr. Andrews’ her- barium has been presented to the Springfield Science Museum, where it is well arranged, and it is anticipated that he will add greatly to it in the future. We have also had access to the herbarium of the Springfield Science Museum, which besides the already referred to Luman Andrews collection, contains that of the Springfield Botanical 1 L. Dame and F, S, Collins, “ Flora of Middlesex County, Massachusetts, 1888, Vi Society ; and, in addition, we have consulted the herbaria of Mt. Hol- yoke and Amherst Colleges, and the Knowlton herbarium of the Massachusetts Agricultural College. The mosses, liverworts, lichens, fungi and Characeae have been purposely omitted from this list. The list of lichens in Prof. Tuckerman’s catalogue is one of the most complete and authentic published, but the list of fungi, Characeae, etc., contributed by Mr. Frost is of little value as it stands today, since much progress has been made in the study of these groups since his time. This list would possess much less value were it not for the work of my predecessors, and frequent reference has been made to Pres. Ed- ward Hitchcock!, Prof. Edward Tuckerman’, Prof. H. G. Jesup’, Col. W.S. Clark’, Dr. N. A. Cobb and others, who have contributed to the previous lists of this region. I have endeavored to differentiate between indigenous (native), nat- uralized, and adventive species (introduced but not permanently estab- lished), by putting the naturalized species in capitals and the adven- tive in italics, although there may be some errors in judgment as to which are adventive and which naturalized in our range. The nomenclature and arrangement of families, etc., follows Gray’s Manual, seventh edition, although we have in some instances referred to Britton & Brown’s North American Flora, and Prof. L. H. Bailey's Cyclopedia of American Horticulture. This list contains in all 1190 native and 303 naturalized and adven- tive species, a total of 1493. GEORGE EDWARD STONE.

Bryant at South Deerfield, and described by Asa Gray in the Am. Nat., Vol. IV, p. 373; 1871. In this form the corolla is completely divided into linear or liliform divisions. One of these forms is in the Arnold Arboretum, and Prof. C.S. Sargent has figured and described it in Garden and Forest, Vol. II, PP. 452-453. The writer discovered a similar form in Leverett near a roadside, in 1907. (See Rho- dora, Vol. II, p. 199.) And in June, roto, a large clump of the same was discovered at Mt. Toby. angustifolia L.
