The occurrence of the tulip is full of interest, since it has been found thus far chiefly (perhaps onlv) in the vicinity of the dunes. Its occurrence has been noted especially at Chesterton along a small stream which empties into Lake Michigan at that point; the tulip has also been found away from present streams, but apparently in old valleys whose streams have been diverted by dune activity. The confinement of these southern trees to flood plains is not strange, since in such habitats are given the most congenial conditions that can be found in our area.
