I am under great obligations to many friends for advice and assistance 
in preparing this record of Ehodesian plants, and wish particularly to 
acknowledge the following : — 
Dr. Eendle and Staff of British Museum for identifying most of my 
collections. 
The late Professor P. MacOwan, of Cape Town, for advice and identifica- 
tions. 
The late Dr. Harry Bolus, of Cape Town, for valuable suggestions, and 
for continuous and unwearied help in identifying plants and fur- 
nishing me with lists of Ehodesian collections made by other 
botanists. 
Mr. T. E. Sim, for identifying ferns, etc. 
Dr. Marloth, for help in identification and general encouragement. 
Archdeacon Eogers, for adding a number of localities as well as of 
species to the present list. These additions, interpolated through 
the kindness of Dr. E. P. Phillips, of the Botanical Department of 
the South African Museum, are marked in the list with an 
asterisk. Dr. Phillips has besides looked through the proofs. 
Mr. Swynnerton, for the trouble he took to annotate and correct for my 
benefit the 240 pages descriptive of his Gazaland collections in the 
Linnean Journal of October, 1911. 
Dr. Eand, Miss Gibbs, Mrs. Craster, and Messrs. Allen, Monro, Jefi"reys, 
Chubb, and Father Gardner for sending me lists of their collections. 
Mr. J. Burtt-Davy for help and advice. 
Also Messrs. Mundy & "Walters, Botanists to the Ehodesian Government, 
have lent me willing aid and placed their herbarium at my disposal. 
I am aware of many deficiencies in this Eecoed, but venture to think 
it should be published without further delay in the belief that it will be 
useful to beginners, and in the hope that other workers in this field will 
point out its chief faults, contribute additions, and make suggestions for 
the improvement of any later edition if called for.
