462 p., 1 portrait, 1 map, and 1 text fig. A. B. Akademiska Bokhandeln, Upsala, and Otto 

 Harrassowitz, Leipzig. 1918.— The ample title of this work indicates the general char- 

 acter of the contents. A rather brief biography of Thunberg and a complete list of his pub- 

 lications precede the enumeration of his plants. The genera and species of Thunberg's 

 various publications are listed in full and arranged alphabetically under their respective 

 families; and a rejatively large percentage of them are still valid. Of the 74 generic names 

 proposed by Thunberg about 40 are universally recognized in the literature of the present 

 time. — J. M. Greenman.
