Abstract
The value of accurate maps of native vegetation as a basis for very practical generalizations can not be questioned. It is obvious that an essential condition for getting accurate maps of large areas is the existence of precise maps of smaller component ones. At present very few precise local maps are available, but it is to be hoped that botanists throughout the country will begin to supplement the efforts of a few of their number who are doing map work of permanent and general' value.
