Ata regular meeting of the Providence Franklin Society, Jan- uary 6, 1885, the Standing Committee was authorized to print

reports on Botany and Geology.

Attest: JOHN DABOLL, Secretary.

BOTANICAL COMMITTEE:

Mr. GEORGE HuNT, oe THOMAS J. BATTEY, oy hala: Way RAO,

Mrs. E. M. ALDEN.

Ir is now more than forty years since the publication of Mr. Olney’s Catalogue of Rhode Island Plants,* which was the first enumeration, other than the partial lists occasionally made by visiting botanists, ever made of our plants. Since that time, and more especially during the last decade, the study of Botany has received increased attention, and is regularly taught in the schools, generally, however, in a merely perfunctory and necessa- rily superficial manner, but any attention given to the study is an advance upon the previous total neglect of the science. The Franklin Society has continued its discussions and lectures upon botanical subjects, and an interest has been maintained and fos- tered, which, it is pleasant to note, is more general at the present than at any previous time; withal, Mr. Olney’s generous bequest to Brown University, and the endowment of a professorship of Botany under his will, has made the possibility of gaining a knowledge of botanical science so comparatively easy, that it is but reasonable to expect that this branch of Biology is to receive,

at least in part, that attention which it deserves.

When the first enumeration was made, many problems remained unsolved which are to-day of easy explanation; text books to

which recourse might be had for careful generalizations from

* The first part of this Catalogue was the conjoined work of the Committee of the Providence Franklin Society, Stephen T. Olney, George Hunt, George Thur- ber and Henry B. Metcalf; the supplementary additions were made by Mr. Olney.

accumulated observation, were in more than one ansehen at that time entirely lacking; sources now broadly open to all were then, so far as they at all existed, accessible to none other than the pro- fessional botanist; new fields prolific in unimagined forms were all around us, but for long time we were entirely dependent upon our older brothers beyond the sea (with whom correspondence was frequently ina foreign tongue), for information and knowledge, which is now the privilege of the beginner.

It is not then strange that the first enumeration of Rhode Island plants contained but one-third as many as we note in the following list, which itself contains, it is believed, but little more than the half of those species which grow without cultivation within our

borders.

This Catalogue is prepared at the suggestion of and under the auspices of the Providence Franklin Society, and forms a portion of its published proceedings. It has in large measure been com- piled for anumber of years, but for many reasons its issue has postponed; yet we trust that the larger field which it conse- quently covers will make amends for the delay, especially as we

are thereby enabled to add several hundred species.

The list could have been never made, certainly not to embrace so much of the field which it aims to cover, without kindly and very generous aid of many friends, all of whom will understand, we trust, that whether their names appear in its pages or not, the sense of obligation is here fully acknowledged and thankfully remembered.

It would be impossible to mention all those who have in various ways, by advice or suggestion or information, contributed to any measure of success attained, yet it were unworthy not to acknowl- edge an indebtedness, for many years in common with every bot- anist, to him who for so long time was ‘‘ facile princeps’’ of botanists,

and kindliest of men; on whom we were in so many ways depend-

Vil

ent, who was so entirely our wise leader and teacher, that we ever refused to think of that time when he might be called away from us. The importance biological studies now hold in American schools and colleges and in an enlightened public esteem, and the value therefrom which results to every commonwealth, is due

more than to any other to Dr. ASA GRAY.

‘* All hearts grew warmer in the presence Of him who, seeking not his own, Gave freely,— for the love of giving,

Nor reaped for self the harvest sown.”

May the memory of his simple, unaffected life, full of wisdom and the desire to be helpful, linger long with us and strengthen

us, according to our degree, to similar loving acts of help!

We have to thank for assistance in special departments Mr. William Boott, for kind aid in the nomenclature of the genus Carex ; Dr. George Thurber and Dr. George Vasey for similar aid in Graminee; Mr. Willey, of New Bedford, for revision of the Lichenes ; Dr. W. G. Farlow, of Cambridge, and Prof. D. C. Eaton, of New Haven, for many additions to the list of Marine Alge; Mr. C. H. Peck, of Albany, N. Y., and Mr. J. B. Ellis, of Newfield, N. J., for revision of the Fungi; Mr. L. Lesqereux, for the nam- ing and verification of many species of Musci ; Rev. Francis Wolle, for information regarding Fresh Water Alge ; Mr. Lathrop, for contribution of Desmidiacew, &c.; and other friends whose con- tributions are noted in the text. Thanks are due to the Botanical Committee of the Franklin Society, for their patience and consid- eration in the extremely vexatious delays which have occurred, and especially for the liberal manner in which they have provided

for the publication of these pages.

Gray’s Manual—5th edition, 1867— has been followed in the

arrangement and nomenclature of the Flowering Plants and Ferns,

Vill

and in those cases where by proper authority such names have been reformed, the former name is inserted in italics.

Dr. Vasey’s various publications have determined the arrange- ment, &e., of Graminee ;1 Lesquereux’ and James’ that of the Musci;? the late Prof. Tuckerman the Lichenes;* Mr. M. C. Cooke’s arrangement of the Fungi* has been followed, with revis- ions by Mr. Peck and Mr. Ellis; Dr. Farlow has been the guide for the Marine Alge,®’ and Rev. Mr. Wolle for the Fresh Water Alge.® It should be noted that for convenience’ sake the Marine and Fresh Water Alge are separated, and in the one is followed Dr. Farlow’s ascending, and in the other Mr. Wolle’s descending series. Although unscientific, it was believed that there were suf- ficient advantages in not merging all the Alg@ under one syste- matic arrangement. The arrangement of the Diatomacee’ is that in Pritchard. We follow Prof. Underwood’s arrangement of Hepatice.*®

The Musci were determined or previous determinations verified by Mr. Lesquereux. Some of them, however, and all the Hepa-

tice, passed through the hands of the late Mr. Coe F. Austin.

The late Prof. Tuckerman very kindly determined, or verified, the Lichenes, and all herein named passed under his examination. The Fungi were all named by the late Rev. Dr. M. A. Curtis, or by

him in connection with Dr. Berkely; the revision of the same by

1X Mr. Peck and Mr. Ellis has been referred to. Valuable assistance was received from Mr. Olney’s Algw Rhodiace, to which reference is duly made by No. in the text, and wherever the names have been reformed, the species as named in Alg. Rhod. follows the now accepted name in italics. Very valuable information regard- ing a large number of Diatoms was obtained from Mr. S, A.

Briggs’ papers in The Lens.

A great amount of material in Desmids, Diatoms, &c., await determination, and all our fresh water pools, and ponds, and

brooks, teem with species yet to us unknown.

It has been the intention to insert the names of all plants so far found indigenous to the State, and also all those not native, but which have become thoroughly naturalized; the names of all plants which did not appear to be perfectly established, are omit- ted ; unquestionably there are some which deserve insertion, and further study will allow their claim, but ‘‘ consuetudo loci obser- vando est,’’ and it has been thought better to practice that con- servatism which has heretofore characterized Rhode Island’s treatment of aliens, and make them fully earn citizenship before allowing it. Naturalized plants are designated in the text by the

method of spacing commonly adopted.

Wherever the habitat is general it is not mentioned, but when the plant has been found only locally, such fact is noted; when a species has been noted by only one collector, such fact is stated, save that in a few cases the note refers to the person by whom it was first found; the other notes will explain themselves. These remarks do not apply to the Cryptogamia, as the marine alge were worked out first by Mr. Olney, and the other orders mainly

by the writer.

Although this enumeration contains the names of upwards of

3,150 species and varieties, yet it is probably only the moiety of

x

those which grow in the State. The Phanerogams and Acrogens are pretty nearly full, the Anophytes less so, but no department of the Thallogens, except the Marine Alge, is probably represented in this list by one-half of those species which belong there ; indeed, the enumeration was so evidently incomplete, that at first it was intended to omit the entire class, except the Marine Alge, and it is now inserted with this explanation, and the hope that microscopists may be induced to search out and add the missing

species to those herein named.

It may well be said in this connection, that questions of great- est interest, not alone in a merely technical sense, await solution, which may fairly be expected from the study of the life history of the microscopic Alge@ and allies: that algoid and fungoid vege- tation has much to do with disease in man and beast and higher vegetable organisms, is held as proven; but whether as cause or effect, or only coincident, is not entirely agreed. No greater ques- tions of material value await determination, than the relations between decay of physical life and the growth of microscopic veg- etation. It may be perhaps that the study of these relations, by some of our younger botanists shall lead to an elucidation of facts and a determination of truths of unmeasured value to the com- monwealth.

That family of plants, Protophyta, containing those species always present in ferments, comprising Saccharomyces, Bacillus, Bacterium, &c., is not here noted; a lack which some future

student must supply.

All that is claimed for this enumeration is its purpose to help and encourage the beginner; —at the same time it gives, we believe, correct information to the advanced botanist of facts regarding habitats and distribution of species. Claim to absolute accuracy of determination, in every case, is not made, and it is

frankly admitted that corrections, as well as reformations, perhaps

xl

not a few, may be necessary. Information of necessary additions

or corrections is desired.

Criticism of the manner in which the work has been done may be deserved; there can fairly be none, however, of the intent, which is, to magnify the wonders of Nature, and prompt the

student, to look beyond Nature’s merely outward appearing.

Whatever of value the following pages possess belongs in largest measure to the help of kind friends ; whatever of incor-

rectness and imperfection to the writer.

To Hepatice, perhaps less attention has been given by American botanists, than to any order; it is certainly to be hoped that this neglect may not be a continuing quantity.

No classification is yet quite satisfactory, and difficulties exist, which can only be overcome by careful and long continued inves- tigations. It would at first seem, that if Hepatice are related upon the one hand to Musci, and through Ricciacee upon the other hand to Lichenes, that a reversal of the above arrangement were called for, and that the thallophytic forms should be at the end of the series touching Lichenes, and cormophytic species should immediately follow Musci ; but to quote Prof. Underwood:

‘** A lineal classification * * * * * does not properly present the ‘‘natural position or inter-relations of the Hepatice and other ‘‘groups, and indeed the affinities of the lower groups are too

‘‘imperfectly understood to represent even a tolerable natural, that “is to say genetic relationship.”’

This remark will apply with force to the classification of all the crytogamic orders.
