This is the oldest account of a botanie collection -— excursion in 
I and the names in it have priority over those even in Roxburgh’ 
s Bengalensis. But Rottler's paper not being E i the RE 
Mone of it in the Flora of British India were made at second hand, and 
the present list has therefore been prepared for reference. In 
De Candolle's Prodromus, from which the citations are usually made, 
their source is given in the latin form, equivalent to the German title, 
Nov. Act. Nat. Cur. Berol. which is ‘likely to be confused with the 
Nova Acta Phys. Medic. Acad. Cesar. Leopold-Carol. Nature 
Curiosorum, the other German quarto journal of the period. 
Rottler’s Herbarium came into the possession of Kew from King’s 
College, London, in 1872, and it contains many of the identical 
plants collected on Rottler’s journey in 1799-1800 rege hong 
and Tranquebar. The names of Rottler, cited in the a of 
British India, are thus generally right, while the ia i is a oen 
wrong. In the following list of corrections we have marked (!) 
against the names where we have found the "gis e plant of Rottler 
at Kew regards the genus Suregada, Bentha m [in Benth. and 
Hook. f. TÉ ER iL 324] while giving the correct Ponga to a 
= Suregada, nomen tantum, and therefore takes up the much late 
me Gelonium. But the fact is that the description of po End 
Sagadi by Rottler is full and good, and the name Suregada is accepted 
by Baillon.
