BIBLIOGRAPHY. 



I* is hoped that the references in the text will be found 

 sufficient as regards the authorities mainly consulted ; but the 

 subjoined list of the more interesting or important publications 

 bearing on the subject may be found useful, though it is far 

 from exhaustive, and cannot profess, even from the writers' 

 standpoint, to be complete. This does not include standard 

 works of reference on Vegetable Physiology and Systematic 

 Botany (from Linnaeus onwards) unless for some special reason, 

 and the same applies to local floras also. 



There are certain works which we have been unable to 

 study, that should have a place in a complete Bibliography of

PETER MARTYR, de rebus Oceanis et de Orbe Novo, etc. 

 Basle 1533.
