^* Thanks go to Peter Schmidt, Director, Queens College Center at Caumsett State Park, for sustained logistical assistance throughout the fifteen years of plant collection and processing. Gordon “Duke” Rosenbauer, then Park Superintendent, facilitated our work. Deborah Batt kindly provided a copy of her unpublished manuscript on Fresh Pond, which was co-authored with J. Williams, and William Monahan. Pat Duncan, then an employee of New York State Park Commission, compiled a preliminary flora comprising both cultivated and native plants. Don Cadwell, New York Geological Survey, kindly explicated glacial history of the north shore of Long Island for the senior author. The authors also thank Christopher Elias, Librarian, Science and Engineering Library housed in the Frank Melville Memorial Library, Stony Brook University, for assistance in locating references; and Leonard Cannone, Queens College Geology Department, for assistance in locating and interpreting maps. Jon Sperling was generous in donating herbarium specimens to the collection. We thank the following members of the 1974 Botanical Survey for assistance in locating specimens: Shirley Melum, Arthur McManus, Art Schnier, Marge Morris, Al Hobart, and Suzanne Wells. Rosemarie and David Papayonopoulos, Herbarium Administrator and Curator, respectively, at the Planting Fields Arboretum, kindly assisted me in checking specimens and in accessing collections. Finally, this project was aided immeasurably by the contributions of numerous Queens College botany undergraduate and graduate students, under the direction of A. M. Greller and Jon Sperling, who collected, pressed and mounted specimens of Caumsett plants from 1985–1997

Vascular Flora of Caumsett State Park, Lloyd Neck, Long Island, New York, with notes on the vegetation. J. Torrey Bot. Soc. 132: 149–168. 2005.—Caumsett State Historic Park (CSHP) is a 650 ha tract, 50 km east of New York City, New York. The vascular flora comprises 101 families, 330 genera, and 624 species, of which 405 species (65%) are native and 219 species (35%) are exotic to CSHP. Flowering plants (Division Magnoliophyta) form the bulk of the flora. Magnoliopsida (dicots) account for most of the angiosperm families, genera, and species. Liliopsida (monocots) scarcely account for more than 20% in any category. Pinophyta (conifers) are rare, as are the Lycopodiophyta and Equisetophyta (“fern allies”). Polypodiophyta (ferns) equal all the other non-angiosperm groups, at all taxonomic levels. The most species rich families are Asteraceae, Poaceae, Rosaceae, Fabaceae, Cyperaceae, Liliaceae, Lamiaceae and Brassicaceae, in that order. The largest genera are Carex, Aster, Solidago/Euthamia, Polygonum, and Hieracium, in that order.

Eleven CSHP species are listed as endangered or threatened in New York State (NYS; Young and Weldy 2003). These are Carex abscondita, C. hormathodes, Cenchrus tribuloides, Scirpus georgianus, S. maritimus, Acalypha virg
