Phycologia Australica. 



A History of Australian Seaweeds, containing Coloured Figures and De 

 scriptions uniform with the 'Phycologia Britannica.' By William Henry 

 Harvey, M.D., F.R.S. To be completed in Five Volumes, each contain- 

 ing sixty coloured plates, drawn on stone by the Author. 



Vols. I. and II. now ready, price 30*. each, coloured. 



An Illustrated Work on the Marine Botany of Australia, on the plan of the ' Phycologia 

 Britannica,' will, it is thought, be acceptable to Algologists generally, and especially to 

 those who possess a share of the Duplicate Specimens of Australian Algse distributed by 

 Professor Harvey. Materials amply sufficient for a much more extensive work than that 

 now contemplated have been collected in Dr. Harvey's recent tour ; but it is thought that a 

 sufficient illustration of the subject may be given by publishing a selection of Three Hun- 

 dred of the more characteristic and remarkable species. This number will allow for the full 

 illustration of all the Genera, and of the principal sub-types comprised within each Genus. 



At the conclusion of the work a short Introduction and Systematic Synopsis will be given, 

 and such other undescribed Australian Species as are known to the Author, but have not 

 been figured in the work, will be briefly described.

Combes. 



A Ramble after Ferns in the Glens and Valleys of Devonshire. By 

 Charlotte Chanter. Second Edition. With 8 coloured plates, and a 

 Map of the County. 



Fcp. 8vo, price 5*. coloured. 



" To these wild scenes Mrs. Chanter introduces her readers with all the zeal of an enthu- 

 siastic admirer of Nature, and especially of those charming forms in which the vegetable 

 world is so pre-eminent. Her book is not written to wile away a weary hour, but to be 

 used on the spot : it is a field-book of Devonshire botany ; its pages have all the dash and 

 eager verve of a Forbes. In a scramble after plants local difficulties are tossed aside ; to 

 rough it is the word ; and the discovery of a Fern new to the travellers is ample compensa- 

 tion for fatigue and inconvenience, to say nothing of something like danger."

" Mrs. Chanter, who, we learn from the dedication, is a sister of the Rev. Charles Kings- 

 ley, has produced a very elegant and charming little book, illustrated with beautiful co- 

 loured drawings." Atlas,
