SELWYN, LL.D., F.RS., F.G.S., Dirzcror. CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN PLANTS. PART I.— POLYPETAL. BY JOHN MACOUN, M.A, F.LS., F.R.S.C. Montreal ; DAWSON BROTHERS. 1883. In this publication it is intended to enumerate systematically the plants of the Dominion of Canada, and to define their range in so far as the knowledge at present available enables this to be done. This, the first part of the Catalogue, will be followed by others, as soon as it is possible to complete the necessary examination of col- lections and authorities. ALFRED R. C. SELWYN. Orrawa, May, 1883. PREFACE. THE purpose of this work is to place in the hands of Canadian botanists, in a connected torm, the knowledge so far obtained of the extent and distribution of the Flora of Canada. It is believed that this Catalogue will satisfy a long-felt want, and enable botanists to add to, or make more accurate, the data at present available, and in the course of afew years remove the serious difficulties which now stand in the way ofa “Flora of Canada.” Forty-three years ago Sir William Jackson Hooker aeuea his great work the “ Flora Boreali Americana,” and in it recorded all the inowledne obtained of species and their distribution by the early travellers and explorers. In the same year, 1840, Torrey and Gray published their work on the Flora of North America, which included the Polypetale only. Three years later the Gamopetale to the end of the Composite, was published by the same authors. After the lapse of thirty-five years Dr. Asa Gray published the remaining Gamopetale in the year 1878. The four works above enumerated contain all we know of Canadian botany, beyond the lists which have appeared occa- sionally in Canadian scientific publications. In giving the distribution of species I have freely availed myself of all published records. My own observations, having extended from the Eastern Provinces to the Pacific, enable me to speak with accuracy and decision on many points which a more limited knowledge of distribution would preclude. The collections made during the last ten years by the gentlemen on the staff of the Geological and Natural History Survey in various parts of Canada have ba examined by me, and also many other collections made in Ontario. Through the kindness of Principal Dawson I have likewise examined the very large Herbarium 9f McGill College and the collections of Dr. VI PREFACE, Holmes, made in the neighborhood of Montreal as early as 1821. The McGill College collections are from all parts of Canada, but chiefly from Quebec, and are of very great scientific interest. * For our notices of Newfoundland plants, besides the volumes men- tioned above, we are indebted to the late Dr. John Bell, who published a list of plants collected by him on the west coast of that island in the summer of 1867, in the Canadian Naturalist for 1869; and to the McGill College Herbarium. ; Our knowledge of the Nova Scotia flora is derived chiefly from a list published in the Proceedings and Transactions of the Nova Scotian Institute of Natural Science for 1875-76, to which the following gentle- men. contribute :—Prof. How, D.C.L., King’s College, Windsor, N. 8. ; Prof. Lawson, Ph.D., LL.D., Dalhousie College, Halifax, N.8.; Prof. Sommers, M.D., Halifax Medical College; Rev. B. H. Ball, St. Luke’s, Halifax, N. 8.; D. A. Campbell, M.D., C.M., Halifax Medical College; A. W. H. Lindsay, M.D., Halifax, N.S. In addition to the published catalogue, A. H. McKay, B.A., Principal of the Pictou Academy, N.S., sent me a very valuable manuscript list of his own extensive collections in that province and the islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. McGill College Ierbarium also supplies additional matter. New Brunswick notices are principally from a catalogue of New Brunswick plants, published in the years 1878-79, by the Rev. James Fowler, M.A., Professor of Natural History, Queen’s College, Kingston, Ont., but late Science Master in the Normal School at Fredericton, N. B. The Bulletin of the Natural History Society of New Brunswick for the years 1882-83 contains additional notices both of species and localities. Contributions from the following gentlemen are also acknowledged : G. F. Matthew, M.A., Prof. Bailey, Messrs. G. U. Hay, James Vroom, Robert Chalmers, James Moser, Arthur J. Trueman, J. Brittain, G. H. Burnett and J. E. Wetmore. Our knowledge of the Quebec flora is obtained from the following sources: A catalogue of the plants collected by the late Dr. Andrew Holmes in the vicinity of Montreal about the year 1821. The plants themselves are in the Herbarium of McGill College. Dr. Thomas’ list of the plants growing at Riviére du Loup and on the Island of Orleans. L’Abbé Ovide Brunet’s Catalogue, published in 1865 by himself, and distributed to his friends, gave all the Canadian plants in the Herbarium of Laval University, Quebec. W.S. M. D’Urban collected, in the year *Among the principal contributors to the McGill College Herbarium, the following may be mentioned:—Dr. Andrew Holmes, Miss Brodie, Rev. Mr. Butler, D. F. H. Wilkins, B.A., Labrador plants; Mr. George Barnston, Arctic plants ; H. E. Trapnell, Newfoundland plants; W. W. Doherty, New Brunswick plants; Principal Dawson, Dr. F. Ww. Kelley, Nova Scotian lants. Also Dr. R. 8. McConnell, Dr. B. J. Harrington, Dr. C. E. Graham, Dr. B. J- Wales, r. John Bell, and Messrs. W. B. Dawson, B.A., H. H. Lyman, B.A., R. G- McConnell, B.A., D. Currie, B.A., L. M. England, B.A., Walter Lyman, B.A., J. C. McRae, J. A. Porter, B.A., R. C. Kirkpatrick, James Meahan and G. H. Blackadar. PREFACE. VII 1858, in the counties of Argenteuil and Ottawa, and published the list in the Canadian Naturalist and Geologist for 1861. A few additions have been obtained from the Canadian Flora, publisked by L’Abbe Pro- vancher, and from Dr. Maclagan, who collected near Montreal, and at a few other localities in the province of Quebec. The results of my own explorations in Gaspé during the summer of 1882 are included, as well as notes obtained from an examination of the various collections in McGill College and the Herbarium of the Natural History Society of Montreal. Anything relating to the flora of the province that could be culled from Sir William Hooker’s Flora is likewise added. Ontario has been pretty thoroughly worked up in almost every district. The eastern part by Mr. James Fletcher and Mr. R. B. Whyte, of the Ottawa Field Naturalists’ Club, and by the late B. Billings, Esq., in the neighborhood of Prescott and Brockville. My own explorations include the counties of Prince Edward, Addington, Hastings, North- umberland, Peterboro and Victoria, in the central district; the vicinity of Toronto, the Niagara Peninsula, the country along Lake Erie and the line of the Canada Southern railway, Pelee Point and Island, the vicinity of Owen Sound and the Bruce Peninsula; the north shore of Lake Superior, and the whole extent of the Dawson Route, from Thunder Bay to Manitoba, including the valley of the Kaminis- tiquia River. The neighborhood of Hamilton has been well explored by the late Judge Logie and J. M. Buchan, M.A., principal of Upper Canada College, Toronto. The district around London has been care- fully examined by William Saunders, Hsq., President of the Entomo- logical Society, and Dr. Thomas Burgess, Assistant Superintendent of the Insane Asylum of that city. The researches of the latter gentle- man have extended from Niagara Falls to Muskoka and Parry Sound, and he has added many rare southern forms to the flora of the province. H. B. Spotten, M.A., Principal of Barrie High School, has collected largely in the vicinity of Lake Simcoe. The eminent Douglas, Dr. Todd, Mr. Goldie and Dr. Maclagan have also done good service. The collections of the three first named were examined by Sir William Hooker, and all localities credited to them are taken from his work. Dr. Robert Bell has collected in the country north of Lake Superior, along the shores of Lake Huron and in the country extending northward to James’ Bay, along the east coast of Hudson’s Bay, and in the valleys of the Nelson and Churchill Rivers, and the intervening district. The great plains between Manitoba and the Rogky Mountains have been pretty thoroughly examined. The collection made by Dr. G. M. Dawson, while geologist and naturalist to the Boundary Commission, embraces the whole flora of the 49th parallel, from the Lake of the Woods to the Rocky Mountains. During the summers of 1872, 1875, VIII PREFACE. 1879 and the two following years, I made extensive journeys through both the prairie region and the wooded country to the north, as far as Lat. 59°, including the whole length of the great Peace River. M. Bourgeau, while botanist to Captain Palliser’s expedition in 1857-58, made numerous traverses of the country bordering on the Saskatch- ewan and southward. Douglas and Drummond explored the whole country from the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, by the North Saskatch- ewan and Athabasca to the Rocky Mountains. The former passed across the Rocky Mountains by the Athabasca Pass, and examined the entire length of the valley of the Columbia, while the latter collected in the main range of the Rocky Mountains, between Lat. 52°-56°, and particularly in that part about the head of Smoky River, a tributary of the Peace. Sir John Richardson and other Arctic explorers noted.and collected the plants of the wooded country from Hudson’s Bay to the Arctic Sea, its coasts and islands, including the country north of the Saskatchewan and the whole valley of the Mackenzie. Our knowledge of the Rocky Mountain region proper is still, how- ever, very imperfect. Dr. G. M. Dawson has examined the region in the vicinity of the South Kootanie Pass, near the 49th parallel, and traversed the mountains by the Pine Pass, in Lat. 55°. In September, 1879, I ascended the Bow River Pass for a few miles, and obtained some knowledge of its alpine flora. Bourgeau also spent some time, in August, 1858, in the Bow River Pass and on the adjacent mountains, and made extensive collections. Douglas’ and Drummond’s explora- tions have already been referred to, but the latter may be said to have given us the most valuable information, as he spent a whole summer in the mountains. I examined the Peace River Pass and ascended Mount Selwyn at its western end, in 1875, but owing to the loss of the collections the results obtained were not satisfactory. British Columbia, also, still requires much attention. Besides the early explorers mentioned by Hooker, the following are our sources of information: During the early part of 1875 I made very extensive collections on Vancouver Island near Victoria, and all the way, by the valley of the Fraser, from the coast to Fort MacLeod at the western base of the Rocky Mountains, in Lat. 55°. Dr. G. M. Dawson has collected on Vancouver Island, in the valley of the Fraser, and in the country lying west of it to the Coast Ranges, in 1875-76. In the summer of 1877 in southern British Columbia on the Cascades and dry valleys lying to.the east. The summer of 1878 was spent by him in the Queen Charlotte Islands, and in 1879 a traverse was made to the Rocky Mountains by way of the Skeena. A. J. Hill, C.E., has added considerably to our knowledge of the flora of the Fraser and Thompson Rivers, during the summers of 1880-81-82. PREFACE. Ix Alaska has been included in the catalogue, as its flora is that of our western coast and north-western interior region. Besides the refer- ences to it taken from Hooker’s Flora Boreali Americana, I have used Dr. J. T. Rothrock’s Catalogue of Alaskan Plants, published in the Smithsonian Report for the year 1867. All plants which are common to British North America and Green- land are introduced. The catalogue used is that of Sir Joseph Hooker, in the Arctic Manual published in 1875. In conclusion, I would again state that the present work is by no means final, and would invite the co-operation of botanists in all parts of Canada in the work of adding to our list of species and assisting to define the limits and varietal range of those already known.

This form, found in the Ottawa River, near Ottawa city, Mr. Fletcher, after a careful examination of his specimens, and particularly the fruit, came to the conclusion was “merely a hybrid between WV. advena and NV. Kalmiana.” To decide the question he sent both living and dried specimens to Professor R. Casparry, Director of the Botanic Gardens, Konigsberg, the highest authority on Nuphar, whose answer was as follows: “Ihave not the slightest doubt but that your Nuphar is N. advena+ Kalmiana. It is intermediate between the two, and what is decisive is this—its pollen is very bad; no less than 95 per cent. of the grains in the specimens sent had no fovilla.

A number of very large trees of this species were found growing on the northern end of Pelee Island, in Lake Hrie, in the summer of 1882. The settlers on the island say that there were many others when they began to clear off the timber. A few of the trees were over two feet in diameter. This species has been planted in the town of Niagara, where it has attained a iarge size, and seems to bear the winter with- out injury. Two large trees of this species are to be seen close to Rideau Hall, near Ottawa, where they must have stood for nearly half acentury. (Macoun.) 124 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CANADA. 154.

SELWYN, LL.D., F.RS., F.G.S., Director. CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN PLANTS. PART II.—GAMOPETAL. BY JOHN MACOUN, M.A, F.LS., F.B8.C., Botanist to the Geological and Natural History Survey of Canada. Montrent : DAWSON BROTHERS. 1884, PREFACE. PART I. In the preface to the first part of this catalogue, mention was made of the authorities from which our materials were drawn, and the names of the various botanists from whom or through whom we had obtained a knowledge of the geographical range of the various species. One important omission was, however, inadvertently made. Promi- nence should have been given to the fact that through the kindness of Dr. Asa Gray and his able assistant, Sereno Watson, Esq., all doubtful species were critically examined and reported on by them. In every case their decision was considered final, except where mention is made of divergence of opinion and the reasons therefor given in the text. For many years these gentlemen have assisted me in determining our difficult phenogams, and much of the real value of the present work is due to them. During the past year additional data have been obtained from most of the Provinces, chiefly from the following sources :—Extensive collec- tions were made by myself in Nova Scotia, Cape Breton and Anticosti. In New Brunswick several enthusiastic botanists have greatly extended the knowledge of the flora and added many species to the provincial list. Mr. Henry Ami, of the Geological and Natural History Survey, has added a number of interesting species to the Ontario flora, and Adis Fowler, C.E., of Toronto, has contributed a local list of the species found near that city. David F. Day, President of the Buffalo Natural: History Society, has transmitted a complete list of the species collected by himself and others on the Canadian side of the Niagara River and on the shore of Lake Erie. The Canadian Pacific Railway Company had extensive collections made last summer in the prairie region by Messrs. Mason, Ducker, Creelman and J. M. Macoun. Dr. G. M. Dawson, assisted by J. B. Tyrrell, B.A., in connection with his explora- IV PREFACE. tions in the Rocky Mountains has made many valuable additions to the flora of that region. In British Columbia, Mr. James Fletcher, of Ottawa, has collected on Vancouver Island and in the valleys of the Fraser and Thompson rivers; while Mr. Cowley and J. A. Hill, C.E., have favoured me with many interesting plants from various parts of that province. Special thanks are due to Thomas Meehan, Hsq., State Botanist of Pennsylvania, for an extensive manuscript list of the species collected by him on the British Columbian and Alaskan coasts, during the sum- mer of 1883. This list is a valuable addition to our knowledge of the west coast flora. It is proposed to continue the present work until all known species of Canadian plants are catalogued, and their geographical range recorded, and the writer earnestly invites all botanical students within the Dominion to assist in this necessary work. The next part will com- plete the exogens, and to this an addendum will be attached bringing our knowledge of the foregoing parts up to date. JOHN MACOUN. GAMOPETALOUS EXOGENS. XLVI. CAPRIFOLIACEA.

This publication, constituting Part III. of the Catalogue of Canadian Plants, carries the work on to the end of the exogens and completes the first volume. It is identical in form with the first two parts, with the exception of a change in the style of type used in the names of introduced plants ; a change which enables the names of such plants to be more readily distinguished. The writer has again to thank Dr. Asa Gray and Mr. Serano Watson for their continued assistance. To these gentlemen all doubtful forms have been referred for final examination and decision, with the excep- tion of the Willows, which, as more fully noted on a subsequent page, have been examined and revised by Mr. M.S. Bebb, of Rockford, Ill. The addendum contains facts relating to the plants enumerated in the two first parts of the volume, which have been ascertained since these parts were printed, also the names of such plants as have since been found, but which were not formerly known to occur in the Domin- ion. To botanists throughout Canada who have co-operated with the author, he tenders his heartfelt thanks, and expresses the hope that this work, to which they have lent assistance, will meet with their approval. The names of many such friends will be found in the addendum. Thanks are especially due to Mr. D. N. St. Cyr, F.RS.C., of the Department of Public Instruction, Quebec, who by placing his large collection at our disposal has enabled important additions to our know- ledge of the flora of the Province of Quebec to be made. In conclusion, it may be added that nearly all the stations men- tioned in the addendum are represented in the herbarium of the survey, and that no references considered doubtful have been included.

Around Ottawa it seldom attains the height of 60 feet, but westward it becomes larger and on the Niagara peninsula is much taller and increases considerably in diameter. It is easily distinguished from its allies by its wide branching habit. (1947.) U. Americana, Linn. American Elm. U. Americana, var. pendula, Ait. Pursh, Fl. I., 200. The White or American Elm delights in low, humid and rich soils, and the better the soil, the larger the tree. This tree has a very wide distribution, being found on the low intervale lands of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. In Quebec it becomes more plen- tifal, and in the valley of the St. Lawrence and throughout Ontario it is very abundant. West of Toronto and in the whole district border- ing on Lakes Erie and Huron it yrows to an enormous size, attaining a greater height and girth than any other Canadian tree, except the pine. West of Lake Huron, it retires again to the low alluvial soil in river bottoms, and is found in the valley of the Red River from Pem- bina to Lake Winnipeg. It ascends the Assiniboine to its source. It passes by the way of lakes Manitoba and Winnipegoosis to Red Deer River, which flows into the last named lake, where it ceases to grow in Lat. 53°. (Macoun.) On the Saskatchewan, it ascends to near Cum- berland House in Lat. 54° 30’, where Mr. A. S. Cochrane observed a number of good sized trees. It occurs at the head waters of all the principal branches of the Moose River, and on one of them, the Missinaibi, found an outlier within 120 miles of James Bay. On the Kenogami it extends to a point about half-way from Long Lake to the Albany. (&. Bell.) At Lake Waswanapy, North-east Terri- tory. (J. M. Macoun.) (1948.) U. racemosa, Thomas. Rock Elm. U.

This tree seems to be confined to dry gravelly soils and is usually associated with sugar maple in such localities. It was formerly very common and large quantities were cut down, squared and exported, but owing to the destruction of maple woods it is now found chiefly as second growth along roadsides and borders of fields.

Gray, Man., 448, 1868. A few trees on the bank of the Nation River at Casselman, thirty miles south east of Ottawa, also at Deschenes Rapids on the Ottawa. (Fletcher.) The above record is the only notice of this tree, outside of the valley of the St. Lawrence River, except a few trees in rear of Montreal Mountain, until Kingston is passed. It is abundant on both sides of the Bay of Quinte and ascends the Salmon, Moira and Trent Rivers, the latter to four miles above Campbellford. Westward from the Trent it is found more inland, but always on river banks until the meridian of Toronto, is reached, when it is found mixed with other trees in the forest. On the Niagara peninsula, especially at Queenston Heights and the Falls, it constitutes the greater part of the forest, and along Lake Erie with other hickories, attains its largest size often rising with a straight stem to 80 feet and generally overtopping the other trees. Along Lake St. Clair it is still abundant and probably reaches Goderich on Lake Huron. (1965.) C. tomentosa, Nutt. White Heart Hickory. Juglans tomentosa, Michx. Fl. II., 192.

It is quite common on the Quebec side of the river at Ottawa, and extends for a considerable distance up the Gatineau. Proceeding west- ward, it becomes a much finer tree and is a prominent species on the whole western peninsula up to the Georgian Bay. 547. JUCLANS, Linn. (WALNUT.) (1968.) J. cinerea, Linn. Butternut. This is a widely spread and beautiful species extending from southern New Brunswick throughout Quebec and Ontario to the Georgian Bay. Whether by the roadside, in the field or forest, it is a beautiful object and its wide spreading branches give a grateful shelter to both man and beast when oppressed by the mid-day heat of a summer’s day. (1969.) J. nigra, Linn. Black Walnut. The distribution of this tree is limited to that part of Ontario, west of Toronto, where it might have been called the king of the forest thirty years ago. At present, very few of the old trees remain, but visitors to Niagara Falls may still see a number of magnificent ones in that vicin- ity, though these are little over a century old. There is no reason why this tree should not be planted wherever the butternut is indige- nous, as they grow side by side at Belleville and Ottawa, and the black walnut makes the more vigorous growth. In the district bordering on Lako Erie it is still a plentiful tree and south of St. Thomas, many of the old fences are largely composed of black walnut rails, while the stumps are still conspicuous objects in the fields.

Extending up the Ottawa from its mouth to Pembroke ; along the St. Lawrence, on limestone shingle forming extensive groves at Prescott and Brockville ; on both sides of the Bay of Quinte it is very common, extending some miles back from the water and ascending both the Moira and the Trent, from thence west- ward it is a common tree and is the ‘“‘ White Oak” of the northern part of Lake Huron. It appears again at the southern end of Lake Winnipeg and becomes of much value in many parts of Manitoba, where it forms. large groves of fine trees. The last traces of it appear as stunted trees near the mouth of Shell River on the Assinniboine, and up the Qu’Ap- pelle and westward as far as Spy Hill west of Fort Ellice. (Macoun.) On creek banks, Turtle Mountain, Man. (Burgess.) This is the com- mon oak in the Red River country, and attains a good size along the streams and in sheltered localities. (Dawson.) Fine trees are found on Rainy River and in the district between the Lake of the Woods and Red River. On the English River it first appears about half way between Lonely Lake and Winnipeg River. Along Lake Winnipeg it extends as a tree to the Loon Straits, and as a bush to Berens River. (R. Bell.) (1995.) Q. bicolor, Willd. Swamp White Oak. Q. Prinus, var. tomentosa, Michx. FI. II., 196. Q.

This, however, is the “Blue Oak” of the lumbermen and at one time fur- nished much of the oak exported from that part of Ontario west of the Trent River. We have no authentic record of it east of the Moira, Hastings Co., Ont., but it is still met with in low, damp or swampy woods throughout the valley of the Trent and all western Ontario.

On the St. Lawrence between Quebec and Malbaie, in Lat. 47° 50’. (Michaux.) From thence west ward through Quebec and Ontario, it is the common “ Black Oak.” It is occasionally met with along the north shore of Lake Huron, and east coast of Lake Superior, and appears for the last time on the Dawson Route at Lake Namakeen on the height of land west of Lake Superior.

P. trepida, Willd. Pursh. Fl. L, 618. One of the most widely distributed of the deciduous trees. It is found on all dry slopes from Newfoundland and Labrador throughout the northern forest region to Alaska. It constitutes the “ bluffs” and copse wood scaitered over the prairie region, and is a fine large tree in the southern part of the sub-arctic forest. Although it is always found on the dry slopes in the north, in Ontario it more frequently grows on wet than on dry soil. (2054.) P. grandidenta, Michx. Large-toothed Aspen. Rather common in many places in Nova Scotia, mixed with aspen. (Macoun.) Vicinity of Pictou, N.S. (MecKay.) Quite common in New Brunswick. (Fowler's Cat.) A common tree in Quebec and Ontario, but usuaily taken for aspen. It generally grows on sandy soil, intermixed with young pines. (2055.) P. balsamifera, Linn. Balsam Poplar. This tree, in habit, differs very much from the aspen, but in its range it extends even further north, and instead of being of little value, as the aspen is, it attains a great size and height, as far north as the arctic circle on the Mackenzie River. West of Manitoba and northward, it is usually found growing on alluvium in the river valleys, and in such situations it is often nearly 150 feet high, and frequently over seven feet in diameter. On the Peace River and all streams which unite to form the Mackenzie, it occupies all the islands and low alluvial banks. During the period of flood many trees fall into the rivers by the wearing away of the banks, and a great number of them in the course of time reach the Arctic Ocean. These are eventually cast on the islands and shores, and become the chief source from which is derived the fuel supply of arctic travel- lers. The same may be said of the Youcon valley in Alaska, as it is this tree that occupies the valley and islands of that river on all newly formed lands, but in time gives place to spruce as the sub-soil becomes cold and moist from the density of the poplar and willow growth, CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN PLANTS. 457 Var. candicans, Gray. P. candicans, Ait. Pursh. Fl. L, 618. Planted for ornament in New Brunswick. (owler’s Cat.) Vicinity of Campbellton, N.B. (Chalmers.) Apparently wild in the neighbor- hood of Pictou, N.S. Both petioles and upper surface of the leaves hairy. In Ontario this variety seems to be the prevailing form, if the hairy petiole and veins of the upper surface of the leaf constitute, with the heart-shaped, short pointed leaves, the separating characters. (Macoun.) One small tree detected below Niagara Falls, on the Cana- dian side, near the water’s edge. Probably of natural growth. (David F., Day.) (2056.) P. angustifolia, James. Black Cottonwood. P. balsamifera, var. angustifolia, Wat. Macoun’s Cat. No. 1675. In the south-western part of the prairie region along the Milk and Beily rivers and their tributaries, near Lat. 49°. (Dawson.) Common in the Bow River valley from the Blackfoot Crossing to the Rocky Mountains. Easily known by its very narrow long pointed leaves. (Macoun.) (2057.) P.. trichocarpa, Torr. & Gray. P. balsamifera. var. Hook. FI. IL, 154. P. balsumiferu, Lyall. in Jour. Linnean Soc. VIL, 134. Common in the Columbia valley at Donald, and westward through the low valleys of the Selkirk Mountains. (Macoun.) Valley of the Fraser River and probably further north. (Sargent.) There is some difficulty in separating this tree (a western form), from P. monilifera and P. balsamifera in the northern and north-eastern part of British Columbia. While it certainly occurs in the valley of the Lower Fraser we have no notice of its occurrence along the river above Yale. (Dawson.) (2058.) P. monilifera, Aiton. Cottonwood. P, angulata, Ait.

Large trees in 458 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CANADA. old fields at Belleville, also on Presquile Point, Lake Ontario, and sand along the lake and river shores throughout Ontario. (Macoun.) Sandy shore, Point Pelee, Lake Erie, Essex Co., Ontario. (Burgess.) Rather common in all the river valleys throughout the prairie region from the Red River westward to the base of the Rocky Mountains At “Big Stick” Lake, north of the Cypress Hills, there was a grove of these trees of a very large size in existence in 1880. These had escaped the annual prairie fires, being surrounded and partly cov- ered up by sand, and stood as a proof of the existence of forests in the past, where now there is not evena bush. The trees were over 50 feet high, and some of them at least two feet in diameter. Note. Populus alba (Abele Tree), and P. dilatata (Lombardy Poplar), are quite common throughout the older settlements. The former is very difficult to eradicate when once established, owing to the great number of offsets that spring from the roots. XCIX. EMPETRACE®. Crow-Berry FAmMIty. 559. EMPETRUM, Linn.

In a swamp within three miles of Annapolis, but said to grow on the Bay of Fundy side of North Mountain, near that place. (Macoun.) Common throughout New Brunswick. (Fowler’s Cat.) On the route from Lake St. John to Lake Mistassini it reaches, as a 9 460 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CANADA. fair-sized tree, to within twenty miles of the lake; at the Hudson Bay Co.’s Post it appears as a small shrub, and is wholly wanting on Rupert River. (J. M. Macoun.) It is found at Rupert House, James Bay, and in the neighborhood of Moose Factory. The northern limit crosses the Albany at some distance from the sea, and continues westward to a point about seventy-five miles south-west of Trout Lake, where it turns south-west and reaches the southern extremity of Lake Winnipeg, thence it turns south to the United States boundary. (AR. Bell.) A few trees are found near the mouth of the Saskatchewan, and the last of it is seen on Cedar Lake, in that river, in lat. 53°.30’. (Cochrane.) (2063.) T. gigantea, Nuttall. Western White Cedar. T. plicata, Don. Nuttall Sylva, III., 103. T. Menziesii, Douglas. Gordon Pinetum, 323. This is one of the finest trees of Western America, both as regards height and diameter. On the line of the Canadian Pacific Railway it first appears as a shrub on the mountains about Kicking Horse Lake, at an altitude of 6,000 feet, going westward down the valley of the Kicking Horse it soon becomes a small tree, but in the Columbia val- ley is rather scarce until about ten miles below Donald, where it forms large groves, and in the valleys of Beaver Creek and the Illecillewaet, in the Selkirk Mountains it reaches a height of over 150 feet, with a diameter of frequently over ten feet. (MMacoun.) It occurs abund- antly and well-grown in the lower parts of the lateral valleys of the Columbia-Kootanie valley, on the north-east side, south of the Kicking Horse, but does not descend into the last-named great valley, which has a comparatively dry climate. In British Columbia this tree abounds along the coast and lower parts of the rivers of the Coast Range, north- ward to Alaska, but is unknown in the dry central plateau, yet it appears abundantly on the slopes of the Selkirk and Gold Ranges. On the Salmon River the cedar ceases at forty-five miles from the head of Dean Inlet, at an elevation of 2,400 feet, though, like the hemlock, it is again found sparingly, and in a stunted form in the lower part of the Iltasyouco valley, east of the range. On the Homathco it ceases at a distance of sixty-three miles from the coast at an elevation of 2,720 feet. On the Uz-tli-hoos it ends, with the hemlock, at about six miles above Boston Bar; on the Coquihalla, just south of the summit between that river and the Coldwater. Cedars are also found sparingly on the Skaist River, or east branch of the Skagit, and a few were observed on the banks of the Similkameen, about thirteen miles below Vermilion Forks. It extends westward from the flanks of the Gold Range, in the Coldstream valley, sparingly, to within eight miles of CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN PLANTS. 461 the head of Okanagan Lake. It abounds round the shores of the north-eastern part of Shuswap Lake, and in the North Thompson val- ley, to about twenty miles below the mouth of the Clearwater. It is said that there is a grove of trees of this species on the Fraser below Fort George, and Sir Alexander Mackenzie (1793) found it growing, in company with the hemlock, at the head waters of the Parsnip. It also occurs in the valley of the Quesnel. (Dawson.) (2064.) T. excelsa, Bongard. Yellow Cypress. Cupressus Nutkaensis, Hook. Fl. II, 165. Macoun’s Cat. No. 1705. Chamecyparis Nutkaensis, Spach. Nutt. Sylva ITI., 105. This tree is closely confined to the vicinity of the coast and adja- cent islands. It is also found about Burrard Inlet, on the slopes of the mountains, several hundred feet above the sea level. On Silver Moun- tain, near Yale, Mr. Sargent describes a few large trees as occurring at 4,000 feet elevation, and many smaller ones extending up to 5,500 feet. Further north it descends to the coast. It also occurs in the interior of Vancouver Island, being found sparingly on the shores of the Nimpkish or Karmutzen Lake, and generally on plateaux and mountains a short distance inland on the northern part of the island. It reaches the sea-level in the northern part of Queen Charlotte Sound, and is abundant in some parts of Queen Charlotte Islands, particularly on the west coast. It sometimes exceeds six feet in diameter. (Dawson.) Sitka, south along the islands and coast ranges of British Columbia. (Sargent.) Sitka and Southern Alaska. (Rothr. Alask.) (2065.)

Without hesitation, I place all our western “red cedar” under this species, because it differs both in leaves, wood and fruit from the east- 462 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CANADA, ern form. Not uncommon, in bogs, in the Columbia valley, near Donald, and in an old beaver-meadow at the mouth of Beaver Creek, thirteen miles below Donald, B.C. (dMacoun.) On rocky soil along the shores of Kamloops, Frangois and other lakes, and elsewhere, with a diameter of about one foot.

Partridge Island, Parsboro, N.S. (How.) Rather uncommon at Ottawa, but extending both above and below the city. (Fletcher, Fl. Ott.) This species is confined in Ontario to rocky river banks, ascend- ing all the rivers entering the St. Lawrence and great lakes between Montreal and Parry Sound. Very abundant in the Bay of Quinte dis- trict, covering large areas along its shores, even at the present time. Although ascending the rivers for many miles, it is never found away from their rocky shores, and on the Niagara peninsula, where it is still tolerably abundant, it delights in rocky soil. (Macoun.) Port Col- borne, Point Abino and Fort Erie, Ont. (David F. Day.) Sandy and rocky ground, Kingston, and at Niagara Falls, Ont. (Burgess.)

This species, under either its common or alpine form, is found from the bleak rocks of Labrador to the coast of the Pacific. At one time on an exposed shore, at another on a mountain top, beside the cat- ract, and again on the shore of a lonely lake, it greets the wanderer wherever he may be, and yet it is nowhere abundant.

It is found as large as eighteen inches in diameter on the Fraser, as far up as Chapman’s Bar, near the Suspension Bridge. It also occurs on the Coquihalla, for twenty miles above Hope, and is found on the Lower Skeena, Not found, or very sparingly, on Queen Charlotte Islands, (Dawson.)

One of our most valuable and widely spread trees, extending from Newfoundland, Anticosti, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, through- out Quebec and Ontario, and reaching nearly to Lake Winnipeg. Dr. Bell places its eastern limit on the north shore of the St. Lawrence at Mingan; thence it passes westerly and northerly round the head of Lake St. John, and, still keeping to the north, is found on the head waters of the Moose River. In the country north of Lake Superior it is very scarce; in fact, has no existence on the line of the Pacific Railway, and only a few trees occur on Nipigon River. (Macoun.) It is scattered over the country between Lake Superior and the Winni- peg River and around Lonely Lake, but is of rather small size. In approaching Lake Winnipeg, the limiting line of the tree curves to the south-westward, and crosses the Winnipeg River about fifteen miles above Fort Alexander, and then runs south to Lat, 49°, a little east of Red River.

Passing west on the line of the Canadian Pacific Railway in the Rocky Mountains, this tree is first met with on the slopes of the Col- umbia valley, near Donald. Thence westward, it becomes more plentiful along Beaver Creek, in the Selkirk Mountains, but never very common, although becoming a fine tall tree on the mountain sides. (Macoun.) This tree is found on the Hope-Similkameen trail, some miles beyond the summit, on the Sumallow, about the summit between the Coquihalla and Coldwater, on the Hope-Nicola trail, and to the west bank of the Spioos at the trail-crossing. On the Homathco River it disappears at fifty-one miles from the sea, at an elevation of 2,235 feet.. It reappears in the region of heavy rainfall of the Gold Range, being abundant at Cherry Creek and on the shores of the Great Shuswap and Adam’s Lake. Sparingly in the valley of the Tobacco River and other streams south of the Kicking Horse and north-east of CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN PLANTS. 465 the Columbia-Kootanie valley. In certain districts of the interior of Vancouver Island this tree is abundant, and is found in all parts of the southern portions of the Coast Range where there is an abundant rain- fall. It has not been observed on Queen Charlotte Islands, though it may exist there. (Dawson.) (2074.) P. flexilis, James. Rocky Mountain Pine. A few trees are found along the Bow River, on both sides, from a few miles above Calgary to Morley, and a few others at Kananaskis station, in the foot-hills of the Rocky Mountains. (Macoun.)

A few trees still exist at Ottawa, but up the river it is quite plentiful, and in the sandy region around Chalk River, and west of it, the greater part of the forest growth is of this species. The Rice Lake plains were chiefly covered with this tree, as well as all the sandy tracts in Central Ontario. Fine groves can be seen on the Canadian Pacific railway as far west as Dog Lake, but after this it becomes rare, and the last one disappears at Birch Lake, about fifty miles to the west. A few trees appear again on the Nipigon River, and small groves are found westward of Lake Superior, to the Lake of the Woods and Winnipeg River; also on sandy ridges in the Muskeg country west and south-west of the Lake of the Woods.

A remarkably handsome tree, characteristic of the central and south- ern dry region of British Columbia, occurring between the Coast Ranges and line of the Gold and Selkirk Ranges, from the 49th parallel north- ward to Latitude 51° 30’; also in the Columbia-Kootanie valley, as far north as the head of the Upper Columbia Lake. References to occur- rences east of the Rocky Mountains north of the 49th parallel (Report of Progress, Geological Survey, 1879-80, p. 172 B) not confirmed, and probably erroneous. On the Similkameen, this tree is found furthest west three miles above Nine-Mile Creek. On the Coldwater it reaches to eighteen or twenty miles from the Nicola; down the Fraser, to thirty miles above Yale, and northward on the main waggon-road to “the Chasm,” beyond Clinton. It extends for about forty miles up the North Thompson, is found on the northern slopes of the south-western arm of the Great Shuswap Lake, and also sparingly on the southern part of the Salmon arm.

On the east side of the Rocky Mountains, this species was first noticed in the alpine woods between the Athabasca River and Lesser Slave Lake; thence southward it is found on the gravelly slopes of the moun- tains and foot-hills, at an altitude of about 4,000 feet. Fine groves are found at the western end of the Cypress Hills, but they never descend more than 500 feet below the summit. On the line of the Canadian Pacitic Railway it is abundant, both in the Bow valley and on the mountain sides, amongst gravel, especially at Silver City, and west- ward to Laggan. In the Columbia valley it covers wide areas of poor soil at Donald, and is seen on all the lower slopes of the mountains on the east side of the river. (Macoun.) This is the characteristic tree over the northern part of the interior plateau of British Columbia, and densely covers great areas. In the southern part of the province it is found abundantly on parts of the plateau and hills which rise above the height of 3,500 feet, where the rainfall becomes too great for the healthy growth of P. ponderosa. It grows also abundantly on the sandy benches and river-flats at less elevations. Dall states the northern limit of this tree to be on the Youcon, at Fort Selkirk, Latitude 62°. In the Peace River region it crosses the Rocky Mountain range, and_ occurs, more or less abundantly, over a great area, generally on the higher plateaux with poor soil. It is replaced by the Banksian pine at the water-shed between the Athabasca and Saskatchewan, south of Atha- basca Landing. Abundant southward in the Rocky Mountains to the 49th parallel, and extending into the adjacent foothills. In the interior of British Columbia it often forms dense groves, the trees being 60 to even 100 feet in height, but seldom exceeding a diameter of two feet. It does not extend upward to the timber limit in the Rocky Mountains. Found also in the Sweet Grass Hills. (Dawson.) (2080.) P. rigida, Miller. Pitch Pine.

This tree extends from Halifax, in Nova Scotia, north-westerly to the Athabasca River, near old Fort Assiniboine, and northerly down the Mackenzie River to the arctic circle. In the east it scarcely forms a tree, but on the Ottawa, at Petewawa and Chalk River, it is one of some size. North of Lake Superior, it forms groves of tall trees, which become taller and finer on the Dawson Route; westward of Lake Winnipeg and north of the Saskatchewan, it equals the red pine of the east in height and diameter. It is so well-grown on the Clearwater River, north of Methy Portage, that Sir John Richardson confounded it with P. resinosa in his list of trees and shrubs of British America. (Macoun.) Starting from the head of the Bay of Chaleurs, its northern limit seems to be Lake Mistassini, from which it runs west to the Moose River, keeping about 100 miles south of James Bay. It does not touch either James or Hudson Bay. (R. Bell.) Abundant, though of small size, in most of the country around Lake Mistassini and down the Rupert River as far as Lake Nemiskow. (J. M.

This tree is abundant in Newfoundland and in every part of Canada, except southern Ontario and the prairie region. It climbs highest on the Shickshocks, in Gaspé, and creeps the closest of any of our conifers to the cold waters of the Labrador coast and Arctic Sea. At its north- ern and southern limit it nearly loses its tree form, becoming in the north a bush, while in the south, in the deep swamps, it is little larger than a hop-pole. From Lake Winnipeg, westward, it becomes a mag- nificent tree, averaging from two to three feet in diameter and rising to a height of eighty feet. North of the Saskatchewan and south of Lakes Manitoba and Winnipegoosis, it covers large areas, while in the Beaver and Athabasca valleys it is even larger, and descends the latter CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN PLANTS, 469 stream to Lake Athabasca (Lat. 59°), still maintaining its fine propor- tions. It is probably a mistake to give the habitat of this species and the next as being coincident, and to extend the range of the next into northern Labrador and the barren grounds west of Hudson Bay, as all specimens of spruce obtained from Labrador and the far north are this species. (Macoun.) Newtoundland, Nova Scotia and throughout Canada to Lat. 65°, where it terminates with Betula papyracea. (Richardson.)

In the former they are quite short, sel- dom an inch long, and the scales are eroded and deep purple, even when quite old. On the other hand, this species has narrow, drooping cones, never under an inch in length, and the scales pale straw-color or brown at maturity. Regarding the distribution, I can only say that Sir John Richardson and Prof. Sargent assert that this species is really the northern one, while I, on the other hand, hold the contrary opinion. I have specimens from Hare: N.S., from Gaané from Nipigon, north of Lake Superior, from various points on the prairie, and from the foot-hills and lower slopes of the Rocky Mountains, but not one from north of the Saskatchewan, except Dr. Dawson’s, from the Athabasca ; all the specimens from that quarter and northern British Columbia being most decidedly black spruce. In habit, this tree is totally dif. ferent from P. nigra. While the latter loves damp localities, this species prefers comparatively dry woods and is found mixed with pop- lar, birch, and other trees. On the prairies, it is found on gand-hills and dry slopes of river banks, and this being the case, it is not reason- able to expect it to take to cold and damp localities in the north, when, reasoning from the habits of others, we should expect it to affect even drier situations. Time will settle all these points, but no reliance should be placed on any statement not founded on examination of the fruit, Without doubt, this species, ranges from Newfoundland, Anticosti, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, through Quebec and Ontario, west- ward to the forest limit of Manitoba. In the prairie region it is found on the sand-hills bordering the first prairie,steppe. Occasional trees are met with in the Saskatchewan valley, and in the ravines of the 470 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CANADA. Cypress Hills are numerous small groves. It ascends the Bow River from Calgary, and becomes intermixed with P. Engelmanni at Silver City, within the Rocky Mountains. (Macoun.) On the Athabasca in Latitude 54° 7’ 34”, Longitude 118° 48". (Dawson.) Throughout Nova Scotia and Canada, to within twenty miles of the Arctic Sea, and on the Coppermine River ; in Lat. 673° it attains a height of twenty feet or more. (Richardson.) (2084.) P.

This species is first met with in the Bow River valley, on the line of the Canadian Pacific Railway, about the Cascade Mountain, but does not completely supersede P. alba until we pass Castle Mountain, At Laggan and all points westward it is the only spruce, and at Kick- ing Horse Lake'there are groves containing many fine trees. In the Columbie valley and all valleys of the Selkirk Mountains, it grows to a great size, often being four feet in diameter and having an average height of over 150 feet. It is more a tree of the valleys than of the mountains, seldom ascending above 6,000 feet. It is possible that another species which we now refer to P. alba, belongs here. (Macoun.) This tree appears to characterize the interior plateau and eastern part of the Province of British Columbia, with the exception of the dry southern portion of the former, and forms dense groves in the mountains. It borders nearly all the streams and swamps in the northern portion of British Columbia between about 2,500 and 3,500 feet elevation, and forms dense groves in the valleys of the Rocky Mountains. In the north-eastern part of British Columbia, varieties occur which, according to Prof. Engelmann, who has examined my specimens, are indistinguishable from P. alba, and in some places in the Peace River basin these varieties preponderate. Specimens col- lected on the Peace River plateau (Lat. 55° 46’ 54”, Long. 120’, altitude 2,600 feet), are still referrable to P. Hngelmanni, but trees on the Atha- basca (Lat. 54° 7’ 34’, Long. 118° 48’) belong to P. alba, The north- ern and north-eastern range of Engelmann’s spruce is, therefore, indeterminate. (Dawson.)

This tree seems to be confined chiefly to the immediate vicinity of the coast of British Columbia, where it attains a large size, and is, to CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN PLANTS, 471 some extent, used as lumber. It was, however, observed on the sum- mit between the Coldwater and Coquihalla Rivers (3,280 feet) ; also on the Nicolume, a few miles beyond the summit, between that stream and the Sumallow, and on the west side of the Spioos, near the trail crossing.

On the line of the Canadian Pacific Railway, this tree was noticed furthest east in the valley of the Columbia, at Donald, but it is, no doubt, abundant on the mountain slopes about 1,000 feet above the river. Few of these trees are noticed along Beaver Creek valley, on the line of the road, until Stony Creek is reached, at an altitude of 3,500 feet. Thence to the Selkirk summit scarcely any other tree is seen, and ascending the mountain side above this line, anywhere along Beaver: Creek, it is always met with. In the Selkirk Mountains it is a tall, beautiful tree, over 150 feet high and often very large. (Macoun.) The hemlock occurs everywhere in the vicinity of the coast of British Columbia, and extends up the valley of the Fraser and other rivers to the limit of the region of abundant rainfall. It re-ap- pears in the Selkirk and Gold ranges, where sufficient moisture for its growth is again found. The tree attains a large size on the coast, reaching a height of 200 feet, and yields a good wood, but has not yet 472 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CANADA. been much used. On the Queen Charlotte Islands it is particularly abundant and large. On the Salmon River, running into Dean Inlet, it is not found in abundance beyond eighteen miles from the sea, at an elevation of about 600 feet. It occurs again, however, sparingly, on the lower part of the Iltasyouco River, a tributary of the last, within the Coast Range. On the Homathco River, flowing into Bute Inlet, it ceases at fifty-three miles from the sea, at an elevation of 2,320 feet. On the Uz-tli-hoos (north-east branch of the Anderson, followed by the trail from Bostou Bar to Nicola,) it extends to a point six to ten miles east of the Fraser ; on the Coquihalla to the summit between that river and the Coldwater. It is mentioned by Sir A. Mackenzie (Voyages, p- 223) as occurring at the head-waters of the Parsnip (about Lat. 54° 30’). This is the most northern locality yet known. (Dawson.) (2088). T.

This tree is found on all parts of Vancouver Island, with the excep- tion of the exposed western coast, but does not occur on the Queen Charlotte Islands or coast archipelago to the north of Vancouver. On the mainland, near the 49th parallel, it extends from the coast to the Rocky Mountains, growing at a height of 6,000 feet in a stunted form: It occurs on the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains on the 49th parallel, and is abundant in the foot-hills further north, and on the Porcupine Hills. On the Bow River, it extends east to the vicinity of Calgary. In thedry southern portion of the interior of British Columbia itis generally confined to the higher uplands between the various river valleys, northward it descends to the general level of the country. CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN PLANTS. 473 It does not extend into the mountainous and comparatively humid region of Cariboo, and is probably absent from the higher portions of the Selkirk and Gold ranges generally. Its northern line is singularly irregular. It is found about Fort George, and north-eastward as far as McLeod’s Lake, but does not occur on the Parsnip. It extends about halfway up Tacla Lake, and on Babine Lake to the bend or knee. A few specimens occur on the Skeena River. It is common about Frangois and Fraser lakes. It is found from the Fraser to the Coast Range on the line of the Chilcotin and its tributaries, and occurs on the Nazco and up the Blackwater to the mouth of the Iscultaesli, but is absent from an extensive tract of country bounded by the last named localities to the south and east, and extending northward to Frangois Lake. It occurs abundantly on the coast of the mainland as far north as the north end of Vancouver Island, but beyond that point is found only on the shores of the inlets at some distance from the sea. It is found on the upper part of Dean Inlet and on the Salmon River which runs into this inlet, but at about forty-five miles from the salt- water becomes small and stunted, and, as above stated, is not seen in that part of the interior lying to the eastward. Its north-eastern limit in the Rocky Mountain range is still somewhat uncertain. The best grown specimens are found near the coast, in proximity to the waters of the many bays and inlets which indent it. Here the tree frequently surpasses eight feet in diameter, at a considerable height above the ground, and reaches a height of 200 to 300 feet, forming prodigious and dark forests. (Dawson.) 569.

From this point it turns south-west and crosses the Nelson River at the outlet of Sipi- wesk Lake. (R. Bell.) Both Dr. Bell and Professor Sargent give the range of this tree to Lat. 65°, which is evidently a mistake, as Sir John Richardson states its limit to be in Lat. 62°.

(Macoun.) Appears to take the place of A. grandis in the region east of the Coast ranges in British Columbia. It is not found in the southern dry portion of the interior plateau, but grows abundantly in the Gold and Selkirk ranges, and in the Rocky Mountain region east of McLeod’s Lake. Elsewhere in the northern portion of the interior plateau it occurs in scattered groves, generally in localities nearly reaching or surpassing 4,000 feet, but even in low valleys in the eastern portion of the Coast ranges. It crosses the Rocky Mountains in the Peace River district, and occurs in cold damp situations in the country between Lesser Slave Lake and the Athabasca River. In high and cool valleys in the Rocky Mountains, southward to the 49th parallel, reaching upward to the timber-line. (Dawson.) (2092.) A. grandis, Lindley. Western White Fir. Pinus grandis, Doug].

Numerous specimens gathered on many of the higher summits of the Rocky Mountains, along the Bow River valley, Lat. 51°, 1885, are CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN PLANTS, 495 referred to this species by Mr. Watson, but I cannot think they are identical as our specimens do not agree with Nuttall’s description, as given on page 192. (Torr. & Gray.) At page 675, these authors refer S. multicaule to S. Drummondii, “as a less pubescent and glandular variety.” Silene Drummondii is now Lychnis Drummondii, and I confess my examinations place our form with the latter genus. (Macoun.) (2110.) S.

The one seen by myself from the deck of a steamboat along the Assiniboine must be it likewise. I allow V. cordifolia to stand as it is barely possible it may yet be found along Lake Erie. V. ZLabrusca must be excluded. (Macoun.) 125. ACER. Page 99. (418.) A. glabrum, Torrey. On mountain slopes from Ka- nanaskis through the Rocky and Selkirk Mountains, Lat. 51°.

(660.) R. Carolina, Linn. This species and the next have fre- quently been confounded, but they are easily separated by their leaves, and stipules, this species having “leaflets finely many toothed,” while in the next they are “ coarsely toothed.” None of our eastern speci- mens are of this species, but all belong to the next. We have it only from Ontario, and Mr. Watson quotes it from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick on my authority, which he clearly shows to be incorrect. Meech’s Lake, near Chelsea, Q. (Ami.) (661.)
