WALLICH 1 s Catalogue «

Different persons assign different dates for the effective 
publication oi this Catalogue* It appears certain that the 
first part was issued in 1828 and the last part in 1839. But I 
have not been able to find out in how many fascicles the volume 
was issued and how large each fascicle was. However, it is certain 
that the volume up to No. 7683 was completed and made available to 
the public by 1832 (cf. WIGHT & ARNOTT, Prodr .Flor. Ind.^834 } 
pp.XV- XVIII). 
The following dates may be of interest:

P*!53 • A note af*ter^4348 states that certain abbreviations

that this page and others contain the abbreviations were 
prepared in I830 or later.
