Notes on Priority of Plant Names. 
J. A. NIEUWLAND. 
In looking through the second edition of the Herbarium 
Blackwellianum, published by Trew,* I found that this author 
in his own notes to this great work had restored a number of 
- older generic plant names before other authors to whom they 
have been usually accredite 
These restorations are always made under the special cap- 
age “NOMEN GENERICUM,” so that their significance can not 
doubted. 
aeii Blackwell’s names seem to be left quite as they 
were in the original pre-Linnaean edition, and I shall not make 
any reference to these. The famous handcolored plates of the 
first Herbarium Blackwellianum are also reproduced. The : 
` following cases of priority are worthy of mention: 
* Herbarium Blackwellianum, by Elizabeth Blackwell, Second edition 
in Latin and deem Century LV, re-edited by Christopher Jacob Trew, 
Century VI, or Appendix by admiten Gotlieb Ludwig, Norimbergae, 1754 
-1773. [The neas have no page numbers in the text, only the plates 
numbered.]
