Excerpt from The Vascular Flora of the Eastern Penobscot Bay Region, MaineThe Penobscot Bay region in Maine is situated on the coast about midway between the eastern and western boundaries of the state. Strictly speaking, the term, Peno-bscot Bay, should be used only for that portion of the region lying at the mouth of the Penobscot River. In general, however, the name is applied to all the territory between the island of Mount Desert on the east and Rockland on the west. This area lies between meridians 68° 25' and 60° 2' west longitude and parallels 44° and 44° 20' north latitude. It contains approximately 650 square miles, about half of which is water. Of the land, about one - quarter belongs to the mainland and the remainder to islands. The latter are very numerous and vary in size from the smallest ledges to some which contain as many as twenty-five square miles.
