The attention of Botanical and Horticultural Amateurs is earnestly ? 



directed to this old-established and popular record of new and recently \ 



cultivated plants. The position of the Author, as Director of the I 



largest and most valuable collection in the world, and his habits of I 



friendly communication, not only with Botanists and Botanical Travel- \ 



lers, but with Nurserymen and the distinguished Horticulturists of ^ 



the day, ensure the earliest publicity of the more interesthig and re- ^ 



markable species ; whilst the acknowledged excellence of Mr, Fitch's i 



drawings, executed at Kew under the superintendence of the Author, \ 



is a sure guarantee for the subjects being faithfully delineated, \ 



8. PHYCOLOGIA BRITANNICA, or History of British \ 



Sea-weeds, containing coloured figures, generic and specific ^ 



characters, synonymes, and descriptions, of all the species \ 



of Algse inhabiting the shores of the British Islands. By 



William Henry Harvey, M.D., M.R.I.A., Keeper of i 



the Herbarium of the University of Dublin, and Professor 



of Botany to the Dubhn Society. Published moutldy, in 



Parts, price 2s. Qxl., coloured ; large paper, 56'. 



" Before the appearance of any portion of this work there could be but one opinion 

 of Dr. Harvey's thorough fitness for the letter-press department ; happy are we to find 

 that his pencil is not less felicitous than his pen. The drawings, admirably true to 

 nature, are executed in a most masterly and tasteful style ; the publishers have done 

 great justice to the letter-press part, and their coloured plates are truly exquisite. 

 The figures of the natural size are exceedingly like, and the magnified portions of the 

 frond, and of the stem, will be of the greatest possible service." — Edinburgh Witness. 



"The drawings are beautifully executed by Ihe author himself, upon stone, the 

 dissections carefully prepared, and the whole account of the species di-awn up in such 

 a way as cannot fail to be instructive ; the price, too, half a crown for each fasciculus 

 of six plates, is extremely reasonable. Such a work is absolutely uecessiu-y, the 

 greater part of our common Algee having never been figured in a manner agreeable 

 to the present state of the science. — Gardeners' Chronicle.
