PREFACE
This list was begun at the suggestion of Dr. L. R. Jones, for-
nrierly of the University of Vermont, now of the University of Wis-
consin. It was intended to be accompanied by an account of the plant
geography and ecology of the region by Dr. Clifton D. Howe. Since
the removal of Dr. Howe to Toronto has delayed the completion of
his surveys* it seems best to publish this now as a preliminary list.
It is hoped that when Dr. Howe's report is completed, a revision of
this list may be published with it.
The list is intended to include the names of all the fern and seed
plants which are natives of or grow without cultivation in Burlington
and its vicinity, including with Burlington, the towns of South Bur-
lington, Colchester, Essex, Williston and Shelburne. Each name has
an extant specimen back of it, except in three or four cases which
are specifically mentioned. In these cases we are sure of the identity
of the plant cited. Except in a few instances, specimens are in the
herbarium of the University of Vermont or in the private collection
of the author.
To stimulate further search, a supplementary list has been added
containing the names of additional plants which have been doubtfully
reported for the region or which for reasons named should be sought
here. In the case of rare plants, stations and names of collectors
have been given. For the sake of brevity, initials of collectors' names
have not been given except where there are two of like name. In
order to complete the records, the full name, and present address of
the living collectors where known, are here given.
*Dr. Howe has recently published certain of his observations on the plant
geography of this region entitled : The Reforestation of the Sand riains of Vei--
mont. Botanical Gazette. Feb'y, 1910.

It is a matter of regret, that the older botanists who were the
first collectors of this region, namely, Macrae, Robbins, Torrey and
Benedict, who collected here about the middle of the last century,
have so few authenticated specimens in herbaria, that due credit can-
not be given them. It is hoped that anyone having such specimens
or those of other collectors which are not fully credited, will inform
the author.
FLORA OF BURLINGTON AND VICINITY ix
The seventh edition of Gray's Manual has been followed strictly
in nomenclature, except where for the sake of brevity, initials have
been eliminated or names abbreviated, and synonyms have only been
given where corrections have been made since the Manual came out.
Common names have been inserted freely as befitting the general use
which may be made of such a list.
Following the usage of the Vermont Flora, four adjectives, namely,
"common," "frequent," "occasional" and "rare," have been adopted
to denote frequency of occurrence. These are intended to be asso-
ciated with the habitat — thus, "sandy soil, common," means, common
on sandy soils, though it may be rare in other habitats. The term
"rare" is used for those plants which occur in but few stations and
there but sparingly. When they are abundant in such stations, the
word "local" has been preferred. The habitats given are based on
personal observation where possible.
Following the common practice, small capitals have been used
for names of plants not native to the region as far as our knowledge
goes. In a few cases these may be native of some other part of the
state, but introduced here.
This list is necessarily provisional and incomplete, and will have
served its best purpose if it prepares the way for a fuller one later.
To that end it is hoped that anyone who can give added information
about the plants in this list, or who finds any additional species, will
let the author know, and deposit specimens either with her or in the
herbarium of the University of Vermont. Proper recognition will be
made of such assistance in the proposed revision.
My thanks are due not only to Dr. L. R. Jones who has been of
the greatest help and encouragement, but to Dr. Ezra Brainerd, Mr.
W, W. Eggleston, Rev. J. A. Bates, Dr. T. E. Hazen and many others
for assistance given. Thanks are also due to Prof. M. L. Fernald,
who has examined and verified many doubtful specimens.
