SYSTEMATICAL INDEX, 
IN WHICH 
The Plants contained in the First -Forry-Two Volumes of 
the BoranicaAn MAcazine are arranged systematically. 
N. B. In the following Index, the Plants are, in general, 
arranged according to the System of Linn aus, and in the order 
adopted in the Hortus Kewensis; but it has been thought right to 
make some few changes, by which the unnecessary separation of 
Plants of the same natural family has been sometimes prevented. 
Thus the genera Patersonia, Sisyrinchium, Ferraria, Tigridia, and 
Galaxia, which in the Hortus Kewensis are placed in Monadelphia 
Triandria, are in our arrangement combined with the Class Tr1-

Ensarx, so successfully laboured by our able coadjutor in these 
volumes, Joun BELLENDEN Ker, Esq. arekept together. Similar 
changes are made in some other instances, which will be found te 
be noticed as they occur. 
As, in the progress of science, many of the names have been 
altered since the publication of the figures, those of the Hortus 
Kewensis, a work considered of the first authority, generally stand 
first, and the names under which the Plants were published in the 
Magazine are inserted below within brackets. But it may be 
observed, that many of these changes were first made in the Maga- 
zine, by Mr. Ker (formerly Gaw ter, whence the signature G.) and 
afterwards adopted in the Hortus Kewensis, as has been generally 
the case jn the natural orders of ensate and liliacee. In the few 
es where the name adopted in the Hortus Kewensis is placed 
. n the brackets and printed in italics, it is designed to mark a 
~ preference of the name above it. And where both the first name and
