The following is a list of the species described, which are fully illus- 
trated in the three plates that accompany the memoir : — Cycadites 
Schachti ; Finns Omalii, P. Briarti, P. (Cedrus) Corneti, P. Andrai, 
P. gibbosa, P. Heeri, P. depressa, P. Toillezi. 
To complete his work the author has appended lists of all the 
Cycads and Conifers that have been discovered in the cretaceous rocks 
of Europe. The American rocks of the same period have not yet 
yielded remains of either of these orders. 
Manual of British Botany. By C. C. Babington, M.A., etc. 
Sixth Edition. London : Van Voorst. 1867- 
It is a satisfactory evidence of the healthy condition of British bo- 
tany that this Manual, which specially meets the wants of the critical 
students of our flora, runs into a new edition at the outside every fh 
years, — especially when it is remembered that two other standard 
floras are in the market, each with its own school of sturdy supporters. 
We are specially interested in the interval that has passed since the 
publication of the last edition of this work, as this Journal has, during 
the greater portion of that time, been the chief, indeed the only, me- 
dium of intercommunication among British botanists. We have fre- 
quently had the pleasure of introducing to our readers interesting 
novelties which had hitherto escaped observation, accompanied with 
characteristic drawings from the pencil of Mr. Fitch. With the ex- 
ception of one species (Pyrics riipicola, Syme), all the bond fide addi- 
tions to the flora have appeared in our pages, with descriptions by 
Babington, H. C. Watson, Moore, Baker, etc. The following is a list 
of these species : 
Ranunculus pseudo-fluitans, Neiub. Mentha alopecuroides, Bull
