Contributions to the Botany of Vermont IX FLORA OF BURLINGTON AND VICINITY A list of the FERN AND SEED PLANTS Growing without cultivation By Nellie F. Flynn burlington : Free Press Printing Company, 1911 To My Husband FLORA OF BURLINGTON AND VICINITY 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.

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. Nellie F. Flvxx.
