The admirable collection of information on the flowering plants and vascular cryptogams, which Mr. Upham embodied in his Catalogue of the Flora of Minnesota, published in 1884, made available essentially all that was at that time procurable regarding the Minnesota flora, with the exception of a compara- Mr. included in the present report. Were botanical science stable and mature instead of changeable and growing, and could one always rely upon the determination of plants made by various observers, it would be only necessary to add to this excellent beginning such additional names as might be reported from time to time, until all the plants of the state had been enumerated, when a final revision would afford a com- plete flora. Butsuch conditions do not exist, and the only satis- factory method of overcoming the sources of error accompanying the alternative, especially when the work extends through a number of years, as proposed for the Minnesota survey, is to provide a substantial basis in the form of a suitable herbarium, so that in the final enumeration a critical and comparative study of material actually in hand may serve to point out former mis- takes, and enable the whole tu be revised according to the latest ‘ _ developments of the science. In more formally opening up the botanical work of the survey it is proposed, in accordahce with these views, to emphasize at first two mutually supplementary features, the preservation of a _ herbarium to serve as a basis for study, and the systematic ex- ploration of the less known parts of the state; at the same time data will be gathered, as far as possible, upon all questions of interest connected with the state flora, which will be embodied in reports as occasion requires. It is not intended to interrupt the general enumeration of plants already referred to, a part of the survey originated and prosecuted by Mr. Upham, with the co-operation of many local collectors, including several specially enthusiastic students of field botany. The locality selected for exploration for the season of 1886 was _ Vermilion lake and vicinity, a region lying between the north shore of lake Superior and the International Boundry. botanical party reached Vermilion lake July 17th, and went into The AE ra Ni BF oe Se Set ae aed fi re Se Se ess ABA <. eee Lhe “ ’ 5 Paha é >: r2 ta te : , : oi PaaS 4 MSM, ‘en \ 1 ’ me 4 a may hia q N Pee t * ae. es Pe 6 camp with the geologists already on the spot, near the villages ote Tower. The endeavor had been to form a small party of special- ve . ists, who were adepts at collecting plants in general, and also able to exert unusual powers of observation toward certain : ss groups, and thus insure more important results than could be zi hoped for from the ordinary collector. The survey was fortunate — Pe: in securing the assistance of Professor L. H. Bailey, Jr., of the — a Agricultural College of Michigan, well known for his ane ¥f a study of the difficult genus Carex, and of Mr. E. W. D. Holway, ‘ss of Decorah, Iowa, an acute observer, and especially interested in — as the pyrenomycetous fungi and the slime moulds. These two and Be: the writer, with the necessary assistants, spent nearly tg weeks. - : Be in RE exploration of the region already indicated. By op a The camp was situated at the southern end. of "Vocnnittent Shed . lake, at about 48° north latitude, and daily excursions were a made within a radius of some half a dozen miles from camp, ae On the twenty-third of the month the point was visited where the [ron Range railroad crosses the head waters of the St. Louis , river, a distance southward of about thirty miles, and all plants _ ; seta upon that excursion are marked accordingly. On the . twenty-fourth Professor Bailey, with an assistant and an Indian = guide, started on a five days’ trip to the British boundary ab * a % Hunter’s island. Collections were made at intermediate points, — ; , given in the catalogue as Mud river, Mud lake, Burntside lake, — i Long lake, Fall lake, and Basswood lake. Collections were also E made, although not large ones, at Duluth and Two Harbors — (Agate bay), on the north shore of lake Superior, both in going 2 and coming, a2 ~ ; The vegetation of this region ee anes enough wh en 4 looked at casually, but a systematic search showed a discourag- : ing paucity of species, doubtless aggravated at the time of our | Stay by the rather severe drought which was prevailing. “The lower plants were especially meagre, and none more so than the © pileated fungi. Although but a few days were occupied in this. z exploration, yet so thorough was the search, that it is believed a large proportion of the flowering plants were secured and. are ‘ included in the following list, some of them being neo gathered in fruit or only in leaf, with a fair showing also of the less conspicious part of the flora, the mosses, liverworts, fungi , and alg, including many microscopic plants. ay ie The region has only been inhabited by Indians and ee ers 3 till about three years ago, when the opening of iron mines ned ES the southern shore of Vermilion lake, and the construction of § i a ae 2. - raway from that point to the north shore of lake Superior for e transportation of ore, brought in many miners, shop-keepers "and adventurers, and has built up the village of Tower to about _a thousand inhabitants. The summer season is so short and un- : y certain that almost the only crop which can be safely grown is that of potatoes. Owing to the recent and limited settlement, and to the great restriction of agricultural operations, the intro- _ duced weeds of the region are necessarily few; careful attention was given to their collection, and the result is shown in the a general list. It is worth mentioning that the introduced and : _ cultivated plants were accompanied by their usual fungous para- -sites—abundance of Peronospora occurred upon Chenopodium album, and of Cystopus upon Amarantus retroflexus, while the small patches of very dwarf Indian corn bore quite as much Pue- “% re -cinia as usually prevails in a more congenial climate. _ Other features of the flora of the region are mentioned by Pro- fessor Bailey in the following article. : ‘, ye » fal ee e. a ee = "SKETCH OF THE FLORA OF VERMILION LAKE AND ‘ VICINITY. By L. H, BAILEY, JR. , =) : ‘ & In some respects the flora of this region is anomalous. In om most of its features it differs little from that of central Michigan __—*Six degrees to the southward. This southern cast to the flora ___ finds a ready explanation, however, in the fact that Vermilion = j Jake i is separated from the cooling influences of lake Superior by a degree of primeval forest. It is probably not so much the character of the winters as that of the summers which influences the distribution of plants in these latitudes. The snow must BS”. afford great protection to all vegetation at this place, and the % ‘summers, although short, are warm and the atmosphere is dry. _ All herbs of a more southern range find ample time to reach ‘maturity, and the ligneous vegetation simply makes a smaller _ growth. This latter statement is confirmed by the small size of nearly all forest trees. Large sawing timber is not common. In an apparently primeval pine forest, we found few trees above eight or ten inches in diameter, and one measuring some six or 7 au seven inches was about a hundred years old. There are almost — , no peor cly northern or sub-boreal plants in the flora. The most conspicious ones are Rosa acicularis, Alnus viridis, Spar- gi nium simplex var. fluitans, Salix balsamifera, Lycopodium ’ law that species decrease with the increase of latitude.

Even of these, — Betula glandulosa and Vaccinium vitis-idea were found on the St. Louis river nearly thirty miles south of Vermilion lake and — . more directly within the influence of lake Superior; and Alnus — viridis was not observed south of Long lake, some miles north-_ z ward, if we except its occurrence on the cliffs of lake a ; at Cheeta bay. ; One of the most striking features of this flora is its monotor Although the expedition has good reason to .believe that it a f lected four-fifths of the flowering plants and vascular crypto i gams common to the region, the collection from lake Superior — ; to the International Boundary, did not much exceed 100 species. — i The flora of a similar area six degrees southwards would com-— 3 prise from 1,000 to 1,200 species. Here is an illustration of the pains to count the number of species growing upon given areas. — Upon an area similar to that which would give from thirty to fifty species at Lansing, Mich., I counted from a dozen to twenty species. One of these areas, come four or more square rods, " comprised the following : Aspen — Populus tremuloides. Birch — Betula papyrifera. Willow — Salix rostrata. Bush honeysuckle — Diervilla trifida.

Moreover, most of these plants existed only as single speci- + mens, and the character of the flora was determined by a hal e dozen species. ae A few very rare or local plants were found, as follows: gt ; Sparganium simplex, var. fluitans, abundant.
