奇怪的是,关于西印度群岛中最大的两个岛屿--古巴和伊斯帕尼奥拉岛--的海藻植物群的信息应该很少。蒙塔涅对古巴藻类的观察现在相对缺乏信息,但幸运的是,豪(I9I8)放大了。在很长一段时间里,除了极少数个别物种的报道外,伊斯帕尼奥拉岛实际上仍然未知。最近,从相关的贝阿塔岛采集的一小批标本给了Bqrgesen(1924)列出几个物种的机会。虽然对较大的古巴岛的海岸线进行彻底研究的价值将是最重要的,但伊斯帕尼奥拉岛的海岸线可能并不逊色于其他岛屿。值得注意的是,几乎所有对西印度群岛藻类的深入研究都是针对小岛屿或小岛屿群进行的,如西印度群岛、巴哈马群岛、维尔京群岛、瓜德罗普和巴巴多斯。因此,西印度群岛地区目前最有希望引起人们兴趣的问题首先是对各大岛的植物区系进行充分的研究;其次是对安的列斯群岛的最东南延伸部分和邻近的委内瑞拉大陆进行研究,以便我们能够追踪南部植物群向北的延伸;最后是对墨西哥湾西岸的研究。对于第一个企业,本文假装没有全面的贡献,而是对一个不太方便长期调查的领域进行了先驱性研究。它是基于收集和详细的现场笔记所作的一个我们(C。H. A.)在1925年和1929年之间,由于机会提供,而通常从事完全unr,兴高采烈的植物学工作。另一位合作者(W。R. T.)的建议尊重野外工作,作出或核实所报告的物种测定,并负责组织本联合报告。为了有机会查阅纽约植物园标本馆的标本,并就某些物种的身份提出最有帮助的建议,作者感谢马歇尔博士。豪本文的主题是伊斯帕尼奥拉岛西南部半岛的植物群。这个共和国还包括该岛更广阔部分的西部,但广阔部分的主要部分属于圣多明各领土。很少有早期的伊斯帕尼奥拉岛藻类记录来自海地境内,贝阿塔身份证属于圣多明各。的
It is curious that there should be very little information available about the marine algal flora of two of the largest of the West Indian islands: Cuba and Hispaniola. The observations by Montagne on Cuban algae are now relatively uninformative, but fortunately are amplified by Howe (I9I8). For a long time Hispaniola remained practically unknown except for a very few reports of individual species. Recently a small collection from the associated Beata Island gave Bqrgesen (I924) opportunity to list a few species. While the value of a thorough study of the probably varied coast line of the larger island of Cuba would be most important, Hispaniola is probably little inferior in varied extensiveness. It is notable that almost all the thorough studies of West Indian algae have concerned themselves with small islands, or groups of small islands: the Bermudas, Bahamas, Virgin Islands, Guadeloupe, and Barbados. Consequently the problems which are now most promising of interest in the West Indian region are, in the first place, adequate studies of the floras of the large islands; secondly, studies of the southeasternmost extension of the Antilles and the neighboring Venezuelan mainland so that we can trace the northward extension of the southern flora; and finally, studies of the western shores of the Gulf of Mexico. To the first of these enterprises the present paper pretends to no comprehensive contribution, but is rather a pioneer study of an area somewhat inconvenient of access for prolonged investigation. It is based upon collections and detailed field notes made by one of us (C. H. A.) between 1925 and I929 as opportunity offered, while ordinarily engaged in entirely unr,elated botanical work. The other collaborator (W. R. T.) advised respectinig the field work, made or verified the species determinattions reported, and assumes responsibility for organizing this joint report. For opportunity to consult specimens in the New York Botanical Garden herbarium, and for most helpful advice respecting the identity of certain species, the writers are indebted to Dr. Marshall A. Howe. The subject of the present paper is the flora of the southwestern peninsula of Hispaniola, the westward extension of the Haitian territory. This republic includes also the western portion of the broader part of the island, but the major portion of the broad part comes within the territory of Santo Domingo. Few of the earlier records of Hispaniola algae have come from within Haitian territory, and Beata Id. belongs to Santo Domingo. The
