In the present paper attention is confined to upland successions. By way of introduction a representative upland succession, such as may be studied along the trap ridges in the vicinity of New Haven, will be described. Then, with this as a background, differences between successions on various substrata and in different parts of the state will be considered. ©1914. Torrey Botanical Society.
