 Natural History of Plants, by Kerner 



The list of indigenous plants of Natal alluded 

 reports was published in the early part of the year, 

 printing was borne by the Botanic Society, the Herbarium Depart 

 ment taking over 100 copies at cost price for distribution to botanical 

 correspondents. Copies may be obtained by the public from the book- 

 sellers in the Colony. During the short time that has elapsed since 

 this pamphlet was published, errors and omissions have been dis- 

 covered and new plants named, a list of which I give below. I pur- 

 pose continuing this list in future reports, and I may sav that I hope 

 before long, with the assistance of other botanists, to publish a more 

 complete list, with keys to orders, genera, and species.
