Dr. Hind tells us that his Flora is " not to be regarded as a 

 complete and exhaustive work; it is only a step onward." "We 

 hope that the new Flora when it comes may combine the pains- 

 taking ability of the present author with a greater regard for 

 portability and for typographical details than is manifested by the 

 present volume. 



We wish to call the attention of our readers to the ' Illustrated 

 Monograph of British Hieracia,' by Mr. F. J. Hanbury, of which 

 two parts have already been issued. A critical notice is deferred 

 until the work has made further progress ; meanwhile, we cannot 

 refrain from expressing our admiration of the plates, which take 

 rank among the most beautiful productions of the kind. Three 

 are issued with each number ; and although the cost of the work, 

 — 6s. each part, — is somewhat high, it is easy to understand that 

 such figures cannot be produced save at very considerable outlay. 

 The work is issued quarterly, and may be obtained from the 

 author, Plough Court, 37, Lombard Street, E.C.
