Generum Plantarum, vo .1., p. exlv., which is so exhaustive ot an 
English version may not be unsuitable here. It runs as follows :-— 
allich, N. A numerical list. According to Pritzel the inte: is 
1821. This, however, is only the date of the title-page. The new 
genera established in it have been cited by Pfeiffer with inconsistent 
and often, with regard to the numbers, contradictory dates. I have 
abies up a long list which, however, does not give me any trust- 
worthy results. In allich’s list, or catalogue, as it is usually 
cited, the following dates may be ‘found :—Preface, December 1, 
1828 ; after no. 2159, December 1829; after no. 4361, 1830 ; after 
no. 7683, 1832 ; later, in the supplement, nos. 7684— 9148, after no. 
8234 [8324], October’ 22, 1847, after no. 8622, August 5, 1848 and 
on folio 300, November [September] ee 1849. Nos. 7684 to 9148 
were therefore published in the years 1847-9. I was not clear as 
to the earlier numbers till I found in an pee dictionary by 
de Candolle the following valuable note :—Nos. 1-2153, 1829; nos. 
2154-2603, 1830 ; 3 nos. 2604-4877, 1831; nos. 6225- 71683, —— 
opens of earlier numbers which, with ced to the fake of 
collaboration of R. Brown, Bentham, Lindley, Royle and Wiens 
who in other works helped to introduce the many new names, 
though nomina seminuda, contained in the Catalogue, atbadwise 
rejected by Bentham, This was also more frequently done at 
that in the ‘Harbstinin at Kew there is a manuscript commentary 
dealing with the localities cited by Wallich = certain of his — 
numbers. is commentary, which is from the pen of the late 
Mr. C. B. Clarke, is of considerable value, aie it may serve a 
useful purpose if it be reproluced here for the benefit of those other 
institutions that possess sets of the Wallichian specimens. 
or on the “* Khasia” localities of Wallich’s List. 
The er of Sylhet was, at the date of F. De Silva’s 
ciate jst north of Pundua where it is now. Pundua was 
then as now the “Gate” of the Hills, the main-road ascending 
4000 feet troet Theria north of it. At this date there were 
English officers and troops at Nungklao, het oa HP from the 
north valley (Goalpara) ; but none at Cherra 
hasia’ was subsequentl art of Zilla Sylhon a (down to 
1868) under the Judge of Sy Thet , and was called North Sylhet. 
The locality ‘ North h Sylhet’ occurs frequently in the collections of 
Griffith, &c., but not (so — as I recollect) in Wallich’s ; it was a 
name later than Wallich’s tim 
r. Kuntze might have added ek the name of Graham, Professor 
of ‘Boe. Edinburgh, who assisted Wallich in dealing with the ate, semsopbatie
