Sequoia lawjadorjii is the most widely distributed and most abundant species oi Sequoia in North America. Lesquerenx has made known its occurrence in the Miocene of the John Day valley, Oregon ; the lUd Lands of Dakota and Corrall Hollow, California ; lilatk Buttes, Wyoming, and the (.ireen River grouii of Florissant, Colorado. The earliest Canadian record is that of Sir William Dawson in 1875, who obtained it from the Blackwater river, British Columbia. Since then he has obtained it from Nine-mile creek on the Similkameen river; the Red Doer, Finlay and Ominec rivers. In all of these cases the tree was represented by foliage, but in 1888 he notes the occ
