53 July 15 (Wednesday). Continued with Catskill plants. Poa altissima is the abundant species on pathways at lower level (2500-3000 ft.), while P. alba, occurs very sparingly at the summit of Loowithen High Peak. Mackenzie has substituted for Carex varia, the name C. aristecta, because of priority; C. Emmonsii becomes C. albicans Willd., a coastal plain species. The Carex with fine wiry culms, used for (2500 ft.) is C. tenera var. echinodes, apparently local. Aug. 2 (Sunday). Pilot Knob, Lake George. Thuya abundant at low levels near lake.
