Description
Excerpt from Contributions From the Herbarium of the Geological Survey of Canada
Since the publication in 1890 of Part V. Of Prof. John Macoun''s Catalogue of Canadian Plants the geographical range of many species has been extended, many additional species have been added to the Flora of Canada and not a few species andvarieties have been discovered that have proved new to science.
A record of these later discoveries has been kept by the writer and it is preposed in these papers to publish such notes as it is thought will prove''of general interest to botanists.
This plan will exclude such facts as are of local interest 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 grow, will not be considered of sufficient general interest to be recorded here but when the plant is quite new to the country, of extreme rarity, or of very restricted distribution new stationsfor it will be con sidered worthy of record and when possible its habitat, mode of growth etc., will also be given.
