Synopsis of British Seaweeds, 



Descriptions of all the known Species, abridged from Professor Harvey's 



'Phycologia Britannica.' 



A pocket volume, 220 pages, price hs. 



"The Publisher of the ' Phycologia Britannica,' considering that a re-issue of that work 

 in a cheaper and more compendions form would be acceptable to many collectors of British 

 Seaweeds, has prepared in this volume an abstract of the Letterpress, accompanied by an 

 Atlas of Figures copied on a reduced scale from the original Plates ; and has requested me 

 to state in this place that he has my sanction for doing so. To this I have readily con- 

 sented, and have also looked over the sheets as they passed through the press, and suggested 

 some verbal alterations." From the Author's Preface. 



" To purchasers of the ' Atlas,' this ' Synopsis ' will of course be indispensable ; but we 

 would also recommend it even to those who possess the ' Phycologia.' Its small size 

 renders it a convenient pocket volume." Natural History Review.

Phycologia Britannica. 



A History of the British Seaweeds ; containing coloured Figures and De- 

 scriptions of all the Species of Algse inhabiting the Shores of the British 

 Islands. By William Henry Harvey, M.D., F.R.S., Professor of 

 Botany to the Dublin Society. "With 360 coloured plates, drawn on stone 

 by the Author. 



In four vols, royal 8vo, arranged systematically, £7. 17<?. &d. 



These magnificent volumes contain a coloured figure, of the natural size, of every species 

 of British Seaweed, accompanied with highly-magnified views of its structure and fructifi- 

 cation. An entire plate is devoted to each species, the number of plates in the work amount- 

 ing to three hundred and sixty. The History and Description of the Plates, with the Sy- 

 nopses and Indexes, occupy 424 pages. 



" The ' History of British Seaweeds ' we can most faithfully recommend for its scientific, 

 its pictorial, and its popular value ; the professed botanist will find it a work of the highest 

 character, while those who desire merely to know the names and history of the lovely plants 

 which they gather on the sea-shore, will find in it the faithful portraiture of every one of 

 them." Annals and Magazine of Natural History. 



" The drawings are beautifully executed by the author himself on stone, the dissections 

 carefully prepared, and the whole account of the species drawn up in such a way as cannot 

 fail to be instructive, even to those who are well acquainted with the subject. .The greater 

 part of our more common Algae have never been illustrated in a manner agreeable to the 

 present state of Algology." Gardeners' Chronicle.
