" Reprinted /rom the Canadian Becord of Science, October, 1892." 
 
 The Flora of Montreal Island. 
 
 By RoBEBT Campbbll, D.D., M.A. 
 
 For some years I have folt, in common with others inter- 
 ested in our local Natural History, that it is a pity we have 
 not a complete list of the plants growing on our own island, 
 and when giving a paper in March, 1891, on the Summer 
 Wild Flowers of Great Britain, I volunteered to do what I 
 could personally to repair the want, an undertaking which 
 the Natural History Society was pleased to approve. 
 Throughout the season of 1891, I kept my eyes open where 
 ever I chanced to be on the island, in the prosecution of 
 duty or in pursuit of recreation, and I succeeded in securing 
 specimens of the following plants, which I have mounted 
 and presented to the museum of the Natural History 
 Society. After I had entered on my voluntary task, the 
 Botanical Club of Canada was formed, during the sitting of 
 the Royal Society in this city in 1891, and it has mapped 
 out the Dominion for Botanical purposes, assigning each 
 county or group of counties to certain well known natur- 
 alists who are asiced to take the oversight of the botanical 
 research in their respective districts, securing the co-opera- 
 tion of local workers in this department, cheering them on 
 and directing their enthusiasm. Anything I can do in 
 connection with this joint movement, I shall bo glad to 
 at/ten^pt, and if the results I roach can be utilized by the 
 Botanical Club, I put them entirely at its disposal. On the 
 other hand, as one person cannot be expected to fall upon 
 everything that grows on the island, I crave the help of 
 every botanist in the district in the effort to secure us com- 
 plete a catalogue as possible of our local flora. A well 
 assorted cabinet of the plants growing around the city, 
 placed in the museum of the Natural History Society, and 
 thus put within reach of all among our citizens that are 
 interested in this delightful science, would be a great boon ; 
 and the wonder is that an attempt to secure it has not been 
 long ago made.

 I am not overlooking the Holmes' collection, nor am I 
 unmindful of its great scieniific value. But it should not be 
 forgotten that seventy years have elapsed since it was made, 
 and very great and important changes must have come over 
 the flora of the district in the interval. Besides, Dr. 
 Holmes' Herbarium did not profess to be solely a Montreal 
 island collection, much less did it claim to present a com- 
 plete catalogue of the plant-life of the island. The bulk of 
 the specimens which he preserved for the instruction of 
 later generations, as might be expected, were indeed 
 gathered in the neighborhood of the city, picked up, many 
 of them, doubtless, while he was prosecuting his profes- 
 sional work. To this extent, it may be taken as a complete 
 Montreal collection, that it represents the island plants 
 which came under Dr. Holmes' notice, or of which he be- 
 came possessed. Other places are credited occasionally as 
 the fiabitat of the specimens embraced, but whenever a 
 plant was found in or near the city, Montreal was invari- 
 ably first mentioned among the localities in which it grew. 
 When Montreal is not credited with a plant, it may there- 
 fore be taken for granted that Dr. Holmes never came across 
 the plant on the island. It will be interesting to note how 
 far the flora of Montreal to-day corresponds with that of 
 seventy years ago ; and I have compared the collection I 
 have so far made with the Herbarium of Dr. Holmes, with 
 the object of finding out what changes, if any, have come 
 about. Or rather I have taken the catalogue of the Her- 
 barium, prepared by the late Prof. James Barnston, and 
 published in *• The Canadian Naturalist and Geologist," for 
 April, 1859, as the basis of comparison ; and I shall assume 
 that Prof. Barnston's nomenclature is correct and in agree- 
 ment with the classification of Gray, as it claimed to be.
