 THE HISTORY OF 



AITON'S 'HORTUS KEWENSIS* 



By JAMES BRITTEN, F.L.S. 



JOURNAL OF BOTANY 



BRITISH AND FOREIGN 



EDITED BY 



JAMES BRITTEN, K.S.G., F.L.S. 



The Journal of Botany was established in 1863 by Dr. Seemann. 

 In 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 it on until the end of 1879, when he left England for 

 Oeylon. Since then it has been in the hands of the present Editor. 



Without professing to occupy the vast 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 

 punctually on the 1st of each month. While more especially concerned 

 with systematic botany, observations of every kind are welcomed. 

 Especial prominence has from the first been given to British botany, 

 and it may safely be said that nothing of primary importance bearing 

 upon this subject has remained unnoticed. 



Subscriptions (16s. post free) and advertisements (not later than the 24th of 

 each month) should be sent to West, Newman & Co., 54, Hatton Garden, London ; 

 oommunications for publication and books for review to 



The Editor, 41 Boston Road, Brentford.
