INDEX OF PLANT NAMES.
This includes the technical and common names of plants mentioned in this volume (nearly all of which are in the peat report), and of the plant families listed in the catalogue of peat-forming plants which occupies pages 316 to 357. Common names are here enclosed in quotations, to enable the non-botanical reader to pick them out more readily, and the few synonyms of technical names are italicized. Numbers in parentheses indicate pages where certain plants are inadvertently mentioned under different names.
The last number given for each species is in most cases that of the page of the catalogue where its distribution within and without the State is summed up. Species which are not mentioned beyond page 316 (there are about 110 in this category) are not regarded as peat-forming plants, but are described as occurring in various situations which are not permanently saturated with water. About 30 species whose names occur only in the catalogue have been seen on peat in Florida only once or twice, and are for that reason not mentioned in the habitat lists in the first half of the report. The genuine peat plants comprise about 245 species. Of these, those which are not mentioned more than once before page 313 are as a rule comparatively rare and unimportant in the swamps, bogs and marshes of this State. Conversely, the most abundant or conspicuous or characteristic peat-forming plants are mentioned oftenest.
