A record of these later discoveries bus been kept by the writer and it is ])roposed in these papers to publish such notes as it is thought will prove of genei-al interest to botanists. This plan will exclude such facts as aie of local intcM-est only. That a plant common in various parts of Ontario, for example, should have been found in another part in which it was not known to {^row, will not be considered of Bufficient general interest to be recorded bere but when the plant is quite new to the country, of extreme rarity, oi- of very restricted distribution new stations for it will he con- sidered worthy of record and when possible its haliitat. mode of growth etc, will als(> be giver.
