GENERAL LIST OF BOTANISTS. 



The names of persons in the following list comprise 

 many of botanical importance ; but, for lack of information 

 concerning them, or because, upon application, a biographical 

 account was not forthcoming, they have been incorporated 

 in a General List, and have been excluded from the descrip- 

 tive portion of this book. Many of the persons so listed are 

 worthy, from their contributions to botanical science, of 

 more extended notice, but, for the reasons stated above, it 

 was found impossible to include a biographical sketch of 

 them :
