INDEX 
On the following eight pages there is a 
facsímile of the gcneric Índex to the eight 
volumes of Gay»s Hintoria física y política 
de Chile ; Botánica . Paris, 1845-1853. 
With suitable interpretation it serves as 
a substitute for the Índex which Hiillípi did 
not supply. Gay»s volume numbers and the se- 
quences vithin volumes were used by Phíllípi 
for his work, which, however, covers only 
Gay's volumes I - VI. All of Gay's volumes 
contaín about 400 pages. Henee such an entiy 
as Eucetia, IV, 280 would mean that if the 
genus is found in Phillipits work at all it 
may be located about 2/3 to 3/4 of the way 
through Phíllípi »s volurae [4],
