The Vegetation of the Salt Marshes and of the Salt and Fresh Water Ponds of Northern Coastal New Jersey
Harshberger JW. 1909. The Vegetation of the Salt Marshes and of the Salt and Fresh Water Ponds of Northern Coastal New Jersey. Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. 61(2):373-400
In a number of papers' of greater or less length, I have discussed the character of the vegetation of the New Jersey coast. The observations recorded in these various brochures cover territorially the immediate coast from Bay Head in the north to Cape May in the south, and were based on field work and on the study of collections made for the several large herbaria in Philadelphia. During a residence at Belmar, New Jersey, from August 12 to September 15, 1908, and July 7 to September 8, 1909, an opportunity was afforded of making collections, and of completing a survey of the vegetation of the New Jersey coast, begun in 1893, by a study of the coast from Mdnasquan Inlet north to Sandy Hook and along Sandy Hook Bay several miles westward from Highland Beach.
