INDEX 



This index includes technical and common names of plants, economic 

 properties and uses, names of persons, and some miscellaneous topics, but 

 not counties, rivers, etc. (for those are mentioned too often), or trivial mat- 

 ters which no one would look for. Technical names of families are printed 

 in small capitals, and those of genera and species (including synonyms) in 

 italics, while common names of plants are enclosed in quotations, to make it 

 easier to distinguish them from other common nouns. 



As some plants are mentioned in some places by technical names only, 

 and in others by common names only, any one who wishes to find every- 

 thing that is said about a given species should bear both names in mind. 

 Where there is only one Alabama species in a genus, or the species of the 

 genus are few enough to be all discussed on two or three consecutive pages, 

 usually the generic name only is given in the index, so as to economize 

 space. Varieties are not indexed at all. 



Where there are several different species in a genus, whose common 

 names consist of the same noun with different adjectives, such as red oak 

 and white oak, one should look for them in the index under the first word, 

 not the second. 



Numbers in parentheses indicate pages where the topic in question is 

 mentioned indirectly, or under a different name. For example, under 

 fodder and forage the pages in parentheses refer to plants eaten by animals, 

 without using those particular words. 



The entries in the index may be classified roughly as follows : Tech- 

 nical names of families (including synonyms) 83. common names of fam- 

 ilies 60, technical names of genera and species (including synonyms) 480, 

 common names of same 325, names of persons (who have worked in Ala- 

 bama or written about some of the plants discussed) 150 (including four 

 women), economic properties (including uses, products, diseases relieved by 

 certain plants, etc.) 285, and miscellaneous topics 95.
