vast accumulations of flowering plants accessible to botanists in recent 
times into disciplined order. The first part was published by ? Mr. Ben- 
tham and Sir Joseph Hooker in 1862, and it was completed in 1883. 
Another great undertaking, in some sense supplementary to this, is 
the “Index Kewensis.” This gives down to 1885 all published names 
of flowering plants, with a reference to the work in which each first 
occurs. It was prepared by B. ees J Jom Esq., Secretary of the 
Linnean Society, who was engaged u s preparation for ten years, 
the expense being defrayed by the family ‘of the late Charles Darwin, 
F.R.S. 1t was published by the Oxford Clarendon Press, the first part 
appearing in 1893 and the last in 1895. 
Besides substantial works of this kind, the enormous material available 
at Kew has stimulated a constant stream of smaller selena tae either 
by members of the Kew staff or by other botanists working there. Of 
these the following pages contain a chronological catalogue which has 
been compiled with much pains by Mr. Daydon Jackson. It represents 
a volume of work which probably is not surpassed by that of any other 
institution in the world. 
Articles of merely ephemeral interest have not been included in the 
list, and it is probable that some which should have been, have eluded 
research or have been overlooked.
