260 BOTANICAL INFORMATION. 
Mr. Watson’ s CYBELE BRITANNICA. 
We are glad to be able to announce the recent appearance 
of the first volume of another important work, bearing on the 
geographical distribution of Plants, from the pen of H. C. 
Warson, Esa. ; entitled * CyseLe BriTannica ; or British 
Plants and their Geographical Relations." 
A Table of the Contents of this volume, and a specimen to 
show the author's mode of treating the Distribution of 
species,—selecting for this purpose a plant whose distribu- 
tion requires further inquiry,—are here subjoined; that our 
readers may form some idea of the value of the information 
given.
