INSTRUCTIONS TO CONTRIBUTORS TO WATSONIA.

pert, a specimen must be sent for determination. Records in critical 
groups will not be published unless this procedure has been followed. 
The importance of either stating where the herbarium specimen is to 
be seen, or of sending the specimen wuth the record, cannot be ovei- 
emphasised. Records without vouchers may not be accepted. 
The following instructions as to the method of drawing up records 
should be carefully noted. 
Use 5 X 3 inch cards and type when possible. Room should be left 
at the top and left hand side of the card, and between the lines, for any 
editorial correction that may be necessary, as some cards were received 
so closely compressed at the top of the otherwise empty card that editing 
involved re-writing. But the lightening of work deserves the expres- 
sion of thanks to all who have assisted, and perhaps the few who did 
not will now follow suit. 
N.B. — Do not use capitals (i.e. write, do not print) unless you make 
nhsolutely sure from the printed Uepurt that you use them rightlj' for 
the plant name but not for the authority, and for the names of the 
finder, recorder, and determiner when the record is a new one but not 
when it is taken from some publication. It is -much more difficult to 
remove capitals wrongly used than to double-underline writing as in- 
struction to the printer to use capitals : usually this could not be done 
and the card had to be re-written. 
In dealing with records from parts of vice-counties which have been 
transferred from one county to another since H. C. Watson’s time, the 
form “ 20, [Beds.] ” will be used, which indicates that the locality is 
now in Bedfordshire but belongs to vice-county 20 as it was in Hert- 
fordshire when the vice-county boundaries were fixed by Watson. 
When the record concerns an area dealt with by one of the standard 
Countj" Floras, contributors, when they can, should indicate in ( ) the 
number or letter of the subdivision of the County used in the Flora ; 
this not only is of help to the Editors but will be of assistance to future 
revisers of such Local Floras. 
When, for some reason, the name following the vice-county number 
is not tbe name of the vice-county, as “ 55, (Rutland),” the name is 
placed in ( ).
