XXIII.-A LIST OF THE PLANTS OF THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS, BERING 
 SEA. WITH NOTES ON THEIR DISTRIBUTION. 
 
 Hy .Iamk.s M. Macoin 
 Aggintanl yatiiraliat to the Heologkal Surrei/ of Canada. 
 
 This list is believed to include all the i>laiits that have been found on the Pribilof 
 Islauds since their discovery in I78<). The early travelers who made su<-h complete 
 collections on ITnalaska and other islands of the Aleutian chain scent to have spent 
 very little time on the Pribilof Islands, only 35 species being recorded from them in 
 Lcdebonr's Flora Hossica. 1 have been able to tind no record of any collection hav- 
 ing been made there between the time of Chamisso and Eschscholtz and the purchase 
 of Alaska by the United States. ]Mr. Charles Bryant, in 187."), made a hirge collection 
 on the Pribilof Islands. A set of these plants is in the United States National Her- 
 barium at Washington, and, I believe, in the Gray Herbarium also. In 181)0 ISIr. 
 William Palmer collected about 100 species of Howering plants there, and many 
 mosses and lichens. The phaenogams were determined by Mr. Theodor Holm, the 
 mosses by Dr. Kindberg, the lichens by Mr. Calkins. In 1891 Dr. C. II. jMerriam, one 
 of the Ignited i-tates Bering Sea commissioners, made extensive <'olle(tions (over (10 
 species) on both St. Paul and St. George islands, and in 1892 publisiied a list of the 
 plants he had collected.' In 1895 Messrs. I'\ W. True and I). W, Prentiss, jr., brought 
 from the Pribilof Islands a very fine collection of tiowering plants (90 species). Their 
 specimens are the best I have seen from that region. They were determined by Dr. 
 J. N. Hose and are in the National Herbarium at Washington. 
 
 My own collections were made in the years 1891, 1892, 1890, and 1897, principally 
 on St. Paul Island, and comprise 182 species and varieties of phaenerogams and 
 vascular cryptogams. In 1897 1 had ample time at my disposal, and had then seen 
 the collections of other visitors to the islands, so that I was able to gi-eatly extend 
 the number of species collected by me in former years. Ket'erence is made in tlie text 
 to the species that I failed to tind. St. George Island has never been well botanized, 
 and future collectors on that island will probably add many species to this list. 
 
 Through tlie courtesy of Mr. F. V. Coville and Dr. J. N. Rose, the curator and 
 assistant curator of the United States National Herbarium, I have been enabled to 
 examine all the Pribilof Island plants in that herbarinn), and have admitted no species 
 into the present list of which I have not seen specimens.

 BRIEF DESCRIl'TION OK THE PBIBILOF ISLANDS WITH SPECIAL 
 
 THEIR VEGETATION. 
 
 REFERENCE TO 
 
 Dr. Merriam's description of the natural features of the Pribilof Islands in so 
 good that I shall uot attempt to improve upon it. lie says: 
 
 'I'he Pribihit' ^ro'up in Horing Heii is alioiit 350 kilomuterH (220 iiiileHi iiortli of tlii> Ali'iitliiii rhaiii 
 and comprises tbti isluiids St. I'aul iiinl .St. (icorge, st'imiated by about (ilj kilniin'tcrs ( 10 inilcg) of 
 st-a, and two islets, known as Walrus and Otter islands, near St. I'anl. .St. 1'hmI is (lie liirj;iwt, nieiis- 
 nriiig about 28A kilometers (14 miles) in length by 12 kilometers (7^ miles) in ^rnsitt^st breailtii. St. 
 George is a little less than U)M kilometers ( 12 miles) in length by a little nioru than S kilometers (."i 
 miles) in greatest breadth. The highest land is on St. fieorge, where a jirccipitous clitf fronting the 
 sea and a hill in the interior exceed 27.5 meters (900 feet). The highest land on St. Paul is a little 
 over 183 meters (tiOO feet). The gronp is of voleanie origin and the general snrfaee is rolling with 
 jirecipitons elitl's along the water front in many jiliicos, alternating with broad valleys aii<l basins. 
 The ellrt's predominate on St. George. In sunnnor the islands are almost constantly enveloiied in fog. 
 The atmosphere is saturated (the wet and dry bulbs p-gistering the same) and the temperature is 
 uniformly low, the thermometer ranging from 7' C. (4.5^ F.)toO^ ('. (IS F. ), or rarely li) ('. (.%0 I", i. 
 
 The sandy shores and dunes of the I'ribilof Islands support a very scant vegeta- 
 tion. Cochleoriit officinalis, Arenaria pepJoides, and Elj/mus mollis are the diaractcristic 
 species. Lathyyus mnritimus and Mertensia muritinm, though not rare, are far lioin 
 common, and the.se five species are the only .shore plants that were seen. A few jtlants 
 that are not of general distribution grow on cliffs near the sea. Among tiiese are 
 Draha .tirta, Xesodralm grandis, Arabia ambigun, Sagitio linutivi and SaxiJ'raijd hracfetUtt. 
 Near the village on St. Paul Island and elsewhere on the lower levels on both islands 
 the ponds and lakes are surrounded by mud flats, on which a number of specii's grow 
 tliat are not found elsewhere. The commonest of these are RaHiouulus lii/pirbortnis, 
 Ix'anunculus reptans, Montia /ontann, Stellaria hmni/usa, and I'oteiifilla toiscrina. 
 Chrysanthemum arctieum is sometimes found with them, but is commoner in wet places 
 on higher levels, espec^ially on St. George Island. 
 
 The number of bog and marsh plants is very small, though many of the species 
 that grow elsewhere are also found on the damp, boggy spots that are so characiter- 
 istic of both islands. There is but one true bog <m St. Paul Island, several on St. 
 George. On these hubtis chamaemorus, Saxifraga hirvnlns, Pedicularis sudetica, and 
 Petasites frigida grow in ])rofusion, but they are all found on other parts of the island. 
 
 The greater part of the surface of both islands is tundra-like and much resenddes 
 the barren grounds of arctic America. The commonest plants throughout the wind-

 blown (iiul elevated parts of tlie islands are Sileiir (tctndiH, Ari-nnrin mncrornrpa, and 
 KrUt'iihhim vlioinissoiiiH, all formin},' cnsliinns a foot or more in diameter, Ihitrema

 ('(imi)iiHHhi iKsiociniKi, Pedn-uJnth htnuHdorfii, and I'nlivvlnriH lanntii. On the more 
 exposed places and of not nearly so general distribution are (Un-daminr UdUd'ifulia, 
 Lyrlinis (tprtdla, ClmiHOHplniiiiin hn-iiuii(iniim, Siui/r<i(ja ilai'iirica, S(i.iijyii(fi> srvpi/l 
 li/oUa, Astn- sihirkux, and (initUttut (ilauin, 
 
 (".rassy banks and upland meadows are frequent, gei.erally noai' the sea, and on 
 these grow many species that are not found on the bleaker and more elevated parts 
 of tlie islands. Conspicuous amou}-- these are IfKniinviiliis alltticim, UninmciiluH 
 KHvliHvholtzii, Valenam cnpitnfn, Ttmuwum ojjwhwlv var. Ih-iihim, two species of 
 I'okmonhtm and I'eiVH-uUtrh irrlirilhita. Cl(iiiti>nia HnniieiitoHa, Viola luiifiHilorfii, 
 </fn/»V(H'f ./Vi//i»?«, and Primula e.rimin are sometimes found with the above species, 
 but are more common in damp sheltered places among the rocks in the interior of 
 St. Paul Island. On one bank near a little pond at the southwest end of St. Paul 
 Island I found Copiis tri/olia, (Icnininm criauthiim, Arnim itnalashrnKis, and Veronicn 
 Htelhtri, not seen elsewhere on tln^ Pribilof Islands. 
 
 There are many level areas of cotisiderable extent on both islands, called by Dr. 
 Merriam "moss-bogs," but no true bog plants are tVmnd on them, though the soil is 
 saturated with water and covered with a thick carpet of moss, principally lli/jnnim 
 and /.'KWMM/i/JOJ— little SplKuiiium. No plants are found on these areas that do not 
 grow on the higher and drier ground, though EiHpctnau nigrum is in such places 
 more abundant than elsewhere. 
 
 Special reference has been made to but a small part of the whole number of 
 species on the islands, but those named give, it is hoped, a geneial idea of the nature 
 of the vegetation. Many of the commoner species have not been mentioned and no 
 grasses m- carices have been referred to, but the relative abundance, and generally 
 the habitat, of each species is given elsewhere. 
 
 GKO(aiAl'IU0AL DISTRIIJUTION OK THE IMlAENOCfAMS AND VASCILAU CllYl'TOGAMS 
 KNOWN TO OrOl B ON PIIK VRIHILOF ISLANDS. 
 
 No part of this paper has been prepared more thonaighly and carefully than that 
 showing the geographical distribution of the plants found on the Pribilof Islands. 
 Some ((f the plants may have a wider range than I have iiuli.-ated, but I have in all 
 cases good authority for the occurrence of species in the districts I have referred 
 them to. The authorities consulted will be Ibnnd at the end of the list itself. This 
 part of my paper was written in conjunction with Mr. Thcfodor Holm. Mr. Holm has 
 collected from Greenland eastward to Nova Zerabla, I from Labrador and Hudson 
 Bay westward to Bering Straits and Kamchatka. 
 
 As will be seen from the list itself, the great majority of the plants found on the 
 Pribilof Islands are circumpolar in their range, and in this respect the flora of the 
 Pribilof Islands attbrds a marked contrast to that of the Commander Islands, in 
 nearly the same latitude, on the west side of Bering Sea. Many of the species are 
 the same on both groups of islands, but on the Commander Islands the number of 
 species that are essentially Asiatic far exceeds the number of those on the Pribilof 
 Islands that are distinctly American.

 TlIK I rU HEALS OP THK PKIBILOF ISLANDS. 
 
 Oil exposed liillsitles uinoiis Cliulonias and other lichens, St. Paul LsLind, Septem- 
 ber IS, isiM;, (.I.M. Macoun.) 
 
 This species is apparently related to U./allax, from which it may be separated by 
 its daiker colored pileus with its even margin and by its larger spores. Its uumeroiis 
 eoni('ali)ointed eystidia project slightly from the edge of the lamellae. Having seen 
 only dry specimens, it is impossible to say whether the flavor of the fresh plant is mild 
 or acrid. 
 Flammula fulvella, I'k. Ni^w 8|i(cioH. 
 
 Pileus tliin, convex or nearly plane, glabrous, subtawny, the raarg'n deflexed or 
 incurved, llesh wliitish; lamellae thin, subdistant, adnate or slightly decurrent, some- 
 what tawny, inclining to ociiraceous tawny; stem equal, solid, librillose or flbrillose- 
 sipiannilose, colored like the pileus; spores elliptical, O.OOOo inch long, 0.00,'$ broad. 
 
 Pileus to 12 lines broad; stem about 1 inch long, l.o to 2 lines thick. 
 
 Low ground, St. Paul Island, September, 18(H). (J. M. Macoun.) 
 
 Having seen dried 8i)ecimens only, it is not possible to give the colors of the fresh 
 l)lant nor of the young lamellae. Tiie plants are apparently closely gregarious in 
 mode of growth. It is possible that the i)ileus may be slightly viscid when fresh, but 
 this (;ould not be satisfactorily ascertained, and therefore the tribe to which the species 
 belongs is uncertain.
