Excerpt from Botanic Contributions Relating to the Flora of Western North America
Mr. Lindheimer's plan for exploring the botany of Texas, and preparing specimens of dried plants for distribution, was announced ln Silliman' s Journal for July, 1843. The collee tion of that season, owing to various misfortunes, having been much smaller thari was anticipated, it was thought best to defer its distribution until that 'for the year 1844 should come to hand. A part of the second collection was lost in the course of transmission to St. Louis; those which were received in sufficient quantity for distribution extend the number to 318. Mr. Lindheimer is now entering upon an unexplored field west of the Colorado River, and we may confidently expect that a rich harvest of peculiar plants will reward his efforts during the present season. This collection will be assorted and distributed without delay, and our ac count of them duly published in the pages of this journal.
