EnumeratioMyrtacearum Brasiliensium. Wjalmar Kizerskow. 8 vo. 
Pp. 199, tab. 24. Christiania, 1893). 
This is an enumeration, with descriptions of many new species, 
of the Myrtacez collected in Brazil by Glaziou, Lund, Mendonca, 
Raben, Reinhardt, Schenck, Warming and others, and forms the 
thirty-ninth paper in Professor Warming’s contributions to the 
Botany of Central Brazil. Four hundred and nineteen species are 
recognized. The author’s treatment of the order differs from that 
of Berg, in Martius’ «Flora Brasiliensis,”’ chiefly in the recogni- 
tion of fewer genera, nearly all of the species proposed by Berg 
being maintained. The illustrations are made up partly from 
drawings and partly from reproductions of photographs of her- — 
barium specimens. __ NCLB.
