revised and enlarged. (Duckworth <?> Co., London. 1905. 



XII and 371 pp. Price: 7s. öd. nett.) 



In the second edition of this exceedingly useful book a large number 

 of new terms have been added in the form of a Supplement (p. 295—362), 

 making die total number included about 16^000. A special feature of the 

 recent additions is the inclusion of Giemen t's phytogeographic termi- 

 nology and a brief perusal shovvs that all the more important new terms 

 have been taken up and a concise description of each given. The 

 appendix (p. 365—370) deals with special points such as the pronunciation 

 of Latin and Latinised words, etc. and also gives a brief bibliography 

 of similar works. F. E. Fritsch.

bulbl^ena A. Morrison. (Transactions and Proceedings

The new species is allied to D. Banksii R. Br. and D. myriantha 

 Planch., the three forming a small group, connecting the long-stemmed 

 species of the Ergaleiiim section with those of sect. Rorella. The three 

 species agree in the charater of the style-branches, which are fewer than 

 in any other species of the cauline type of Drosera and are generally 

 ■similar in most of their characters. F. E. Fritsch.
