The few. by any means complete.. list is. that. have not come under our own observation, have been inserted on. good authority.. The Catalogue. of Plants growing about Plandome, on Long-. 1807, in the Medical Repository,! was the. Island, published in first. attempt to enumerate the native plants of the vicinity of. York.. It. contains three hundred and ten species,. New-. some of which. are rare.. In 1812, J.. Le Conte,. losophical Register,! a lected. by him on the. Esq. published. local. fifty plants,. col-.

(14) — PREFACE.. vP.. much remains to be discovered. The cedar swamp, near New-Durham, is particularly deserving of notice. This is a sphagces, but. nous morass, of about three quarters of a mile. in length,. tween two and three hundred yards wide, and. entirely. is. and be-. overgrown. with the cupressvs thuyoides or white cedar, and other evergreens.. Many. of our most rare and interesting plants were obtained in. this place,. as our catalogue bears evidence.. Staten-Island has not been often visited, though there to expect. much from. considerable part of. A. it.. reason. great portion of the sea shore has not. been explored with that attention which ductions of the sea. is. the peculiar soil which predominates over a. itself. have been, as. it. deserves. ;. and the pro-. yet, almost entirely neg-. lected.. Perhaps there. is. no region more. The. four great formations of. einity,. and the. soil. and. interesting to the botanist nor. which surrounds the city of New- York.. to the geologist than that. Werner occur. in. our immediate. Our. situation are greatly diversified.. vi-. prox-. imity to the ocean also gives us the advantage of studying those plants which are never found far from the sea shore.. In the lower orders of the class Crytogamia 3. we have. not been. able to do much, owing to the extreme difficulty of obtaining pro-. per books relating to. this. branch of botany.. We. have therefore. only inserted such species as are satisfactorily ascertained, reserving the rest until will. some. future time,. when. it is. expected. this class. be greatly augmented.. Those. plants which are not properly natives, but have been in-. troduced or naturalized. among. us, are distinguished. LyeEtJM, December 22, 1817.. by. this. mark. §..
