Following is a title page of what we may term Vol. i, 

 (Cryptogams), although it has not a number : — 



" Voyage autour du Monde, execute par ordre du Roi, sur la 

 Corvette de Sa Majeste" LaCoquille, pendant les annees 1822, 

 1823, 1824 and 1825, sous le ministere et conformement aux 

 instructions de S. E. M. le Marquis de Clermont-Tonnerre, . . et 

 public sous les auspices de Sou Excellence M. Le Cte de Chain-ol 

 .... par L. I. Duperrey, .... Commandant de l'expedition" 

 ]iot,irn'tqn.f, par MM. D'Urville, second de l'expedition, Bory de 

 St. Vincent et Ad. Brongniart. 



Cryptogamie, par M. Bory de St. Vincent, 4to pp. 301, 

 Paris, 1828. Introductory pp. 1 - 61 ; Agamie (Algae) 62 - 

 242 ; Lycopodiacese 244 - 249 ; Filices 249 - 285. A useful 

 "Table des Matieres " at pp. 287-298 and Table des 

 planches, pp. 299-300, necessary for bibliographers. 



The corresponding Atlas (i.e., Cryptogams) published (or 

 at least dated) two years before, i.e., in 1826, has practic- 

 ally the same title-page. Its sub-title is "Histoire Naturelle, 

 botanique," Folio, 39 plates ; Paris, Arthur Bertrand, 1826. 

 The plates are marked 1 - 38, 13 bis. Plates 1 - 24 (i.e., 25 

 plates) are coloured, and consist of Algae; plates 25-38 

 are uncoloured and consist of Lycopodiaceae and Filices. 

 See also the following work by Bory de St. Vincent : — 



"Histoire des Hydrophytes, ou plantes agames des eaux, 

 recoltees par MM. D'Urville et Lesson dans leur voyage autour 

 du monde sur la Coquille pendant les annees 1822- 1825, sous le 

 commandement du Capitaine Duperrey," Paris, 1829, folio, 240 

 pp., 2; tabl. col. 



This is a separate account of the Algae, but I have not 

 seen it. 



In the introduction to Vol. i (Cryptogams, already re- 

 ferred to) at page 7 the following passage occurs :— 



..." c'est par elles que nous commencerons le catalogue des 

 richesses botaniques dues au zele infatigable de MM. d'Urville et 



!
