1830-41. The Botany of Capt. Beechey’s Voyage in H.M.S. 
* Blossom ’ to Behring’s Sea, the Pacific Ocean, and China, 
by W. J. Hooker and G. A. Walker- Arnott. One vol. 4to, with 
ninety-nine uncoloured plates, mostly from drawings made by 
W. J. H. This work, which embraces nearly 2,700 species, 
is notable for the diversity of the Floras included. Its title 
conveys a very inadequate idea of its contents, for it includes 
not only the plants collected by the officers of the Blossom , 
Messrs. Lay and Collie, but the far larger collections made in 
British Columbia, Oregon, and California by Douglas, in British 
Columbia by Tolmie, in Mexico and Guatemala by Dr. Sinclair, 
and also in China by the Rev. G. H. Vachell and Charles 
Millett, Esq. 
The approximate number of species brought together from 
the individual countries visited is as follows : — 
Behring’s Sea and Kotzebue’s Sound (Arctic), 230; Kam- 
chatka, 1 15. 
Oregon and British Columbia, 500; California, 212. 
Mexico, 275; Supplement, 162. 
Chili, 300. 
Society Islands, 194; Sandwich Islands, 240; Loochoo and 
Benin Islands, 261. 
China, 335. 
1830-3. The Botanical Miscellany, containing figures and de- 
scriptions of such plants as recommend themselves by their

with occasional botanical notices and other information. Three 
vols. imp. 8vo, with 152 plates (112, and forty suppl.), some
