not included in Johnson's lists. In How's hand, 

 ff. 12-17. Blank, 

 ff. 1 7 v., 1 8. Notes by How. 



This little volume has the great sentimental interest of being the germ 

 from which all British Floras are descended. The first index comprises 

 all the plants mentioned in Johnson's book, and is written, I believe, by 

 the author himself. The second list contains names of English plants, 

 including those quoted by How as derived from ' Dr. lohnfons. M/,\ in 

 How's hand, with additions by him at a later date. Unfortunately these 

 plants are not localized. How's rough notes on the last two pages are 

 evidently memoranda used when preparing the Phytologia^ our first 

 British Flora. 



If my interpretation of the handwritings be correct, this volume would 

 probably have passed from Johnson (d. 1644) to How, who would have 

 used it in the compilation of the Phytologia (1650), and after How's 

 death in 1656 it would have passed to Goodyer, perhaps with How's copy 

 of the Phytologia^ in 1659.
