Tue Journat or Botany was established in 1863 by Dr. Seemann. 
ia 1872 the editorship was assumed by Dr. Henry Trimen, who, 
assisted during part of the time by Mr. J. G. Baker and Mr. Spencer”= = © 
>. Moore, carried a until the end of 1879, when he left England for 
Ceylon. Since then it has been in the hands of the resent Editor. 
- Without Sviaing to occupy the any field of general Botany, the 
Journal has from its inception filled a position which, even now, is 
“covered by no other periodical. It affords a ready and prompt medium 
_ for the publication of new discoveries, and appears regularly and 
- punctuaily on the“1st of pete: month. While more especially concerned 
- with systematic botany, observations of every kind are welcomed. 
_ Especial prominence has from the firs Dae: given to British botany, 
' and it may safely be said that Sine of primary importance bearing 
upon this subject has remained un notice 
Bibliographical matters have eas received and continue to receive 
osama attention, and the orate of many obscure publications 
-- has been elucidated. Every number contains reviews of new and 
important books written by competent Beitiex in this as in every other 
respect a strictly independent attitude has been maintained. While in 
no way officially connected with the Department of Botany of the 
‘British Museum, the Journal has from the first been controlled by 
those whose acquaintance with the National Herbarium has enabled 
oe to sage its pages for recording facts of mangle and importance 
ardin whi e Museum contains.
