PHYCOLOGIA AUSTRALICA; 
OR, 
FIGURES AND DESCRIPTIONS OF AUSTRALIAN 
SEAWEEDS. 
BY 
W. H. HAEYEY, M.D., M.R.I.A-., 
PROFESSOR OP BOTANY IN THE UNIVERSITY OF DUBLIN. 
An Illustrated Work on the Marine Botany of Australia, on the plan 
of the c Phycologia Britannica,’ will, it is thought, be acceptable to Algolo- 
gists generally, and especially to those who possess a share of the Duplicate 
Specimens of Australian Algse distributed by Professor Harvey. Materials 
amply sufficient for a much more extensive work than that now contemplated 
have been collected in Dr. Harvey’s recent tour; but it is thought that a 
sufficient illustration of the subject may be given by publishing a selection 
of Three Hundred of the more eharacteristic and remarkable species. This 
number will allow for the full illustration of all the Genera, and of the 
principal sub-types comprised within each Genus. 
At the conclusion of the work a short Introduction and Systematic 
Synopsis will be given, and such other undescribed Australian Species as are 
known to the Author, but have not been figured in the work, will be briefly 
described, — -thus combining the plan of Dr. Harvey’s ‘ Nereis ’ with that of 
his e Phycologia.’ 
Mr. Lovell Reeve undertakes the publication of the work, which 
will be commenced as soon as a sufficient number of Subscribers’ names to 
justify the necessary outlay shall have been received by him. Persons wishing 
to subscribe are requested to forward their names as early as convenient to 
LOVELL REEVE, 5, HENRIETTA STREET, COVENT GARDEN.
