SOME LITTLE-KNOWN BEITISH BOTANISTS. 



By James Britten, K.S.G., F.L.S., and G. S. Boulger, F.L.S. 



While preparing a new edition of our Biographical Index of 

 British and Irish Botanists we have met with the names of cer- 

 tain persons about whom comparatively little is known. We 

 believe that most of them have done sufficient botanical work to 

 entitle them to appear in the Index ; but of many of them we 

 know little more than names. We are anxious to learn further 

 particulars as to the dates and places of their births, deaths, and 

 burials, their full names and any references to their lives, portraits, 

 or works, other than those which already appear in the Index, in 

 which most are already included. We shall be much obliged to 

 anyone who will furnish us with such information additional to that 

 which is already given in our book or its supplements. Any 

 information may be sent to Mr. Britten at 41 Boston Road, 

 Brentford, Middlesex : —
