 character, observatu difficilij, et vix in ciuartam partem e numero specierum verificatus, nee semper 

 cum differentiis naturalibus conveniens, ad usum practicum paruni asservit, et fructus duratio in 

 speciebus cseterum quam maxime affinibus diversa est. CErsted serins characterem protulit ab 

 auctonbus prius neglectum, e stylorum indole derivatnm, et genera propria i proposuit, uno excepto 

 sectionibus majoribus Candolleanis eonformia. Genus tamen nostra sententia in integrum servatuni 

 bene limitatur, et in sectiones sequentes a Candolleanis v. (Erstedianis parum niutatas commode 

 Qividitur.
