In the preface to Decaisne's volume (pp. 7-10), it is 

 stated that the phanerogams were collected by M. Hombron. 

 The plants described were collected in the Straits of 

 Magellan, Auckland Isles and New Zealand. None were 

 collected in Australia. 



The plants generally were figured in a separate folio 

 atlas with v 4- viii +xxxi plates, making 44 in all), some of 

 the plates depicting several species. Decaisne's volume 

 has at pp. 88 -90 a " tabula iconum," of "Cryptogames

Mr. Hedley tells me that Dr. Le Guillou wrote a series 

 of zoological articles in which he is styled " Chirurgien- 

 major de la Zelee." 



The following botanists performed important services to 

 Australian botauyduring the period of the circumnavigating 

 expeditions, although they were neither attached to such 

 expeditions, nor did they specially work upon the material 

 brought home by such expeditions.
