" For our material from Lower Guinea, we are almost wholly 

 indebted to the courtesy of Dr. Friedrich Welwitsch, who, with rare 

 liberality, has freely granted us the opportunity of inspecting his 

 collections, which, in respect of judicious selection and admirable 

 preservation, are without rival. His carefully accurate notes upon 

 the fresh plants have also been at our service. Without the access to 

 Dr. Welwitsch's Herbarium, this region would have been comparatively 

 a blank in the present work. There remain but few Natural Orders 

 treated of in the first volume, of which we have not had the opportunity 

 of inspecting his specimens, and of these we may be able to embody 

 the novelties in an Appendix. To this distinguished naturalist I 

 tender the warmest thanks on behalf of my collaborators and myself."

The very first species described in the book is one of Welwitsch ; 

 he also supplied his Angolan material for the elaboration of the 

 following 30 out of the 46 Natural Orders included in the first volume : 

 Ranunculace^, Dilleniacese, Anonaceas, Nymph^acese, Cruciferaj, Cap-
