I collected my first mosses about 1892; these were determined in Janu- ary, 1893, by Prof. John M. Holzinger, and my interest in the Musci was awak- ened. Many specimens have been determined by Mrs. E. G. Britton; Prof. J. M. Holzinger; Mr. George B. Kai er; and Miss Edith Warner. The Sphagna have been determined by Dr. A. L. Andrews; and by Dr. Carl Warnstorf, May 13, 1902 and April, 1903. Specimens determined by Mr. Kaiser are preserved in the moss herbarium of the Sullivant Moss Society. No attempt has been made to work over the ample collections made in West Fort Ann during 1918. Many other botanists have collected in this region, especially about Lake George. Mrs. E. G. Britton (nee Miss E. G. Knight), collected a few mosses at Blue Mountain Lake in July, 1881; also a few mosses at Ticonderoga and Crown Point in 1900 and 1901: these are preserved in the Herbarium of the New York Botanical Garden and the Columbia Herbarium. Hon. George W. Clinton collected mosses at Luzerne and Saratoga Springs,—these are recorded in New York State Cabinet Report 20, 1867, and are partly preserved in the New York State Herbarium at Albany. Mr. Frank Dobbin, since 1904, has collected many mosses near Shushan. Mr. Wallace Greenalch, during 1900 and 1901,collected mosses near Schuyler- ville. Mr. Greenalch wrote me April 19, 1902, that, "most of the mosses listed in The Bryologist for July, 1900, as collected by me 'in and near Schuylerville, N. Y.' were collected not only at Schuylerville, but in diflPerent parts of New York State, namely: Indian Lake, Hamilton Co.; Ithaca; Watkins; Portage and Pa
