JEuspermcte to Chccosyermae not only Nymphaeaceae (the position of 
which is perhaps still an open question) but Piperaceae, Chlorantheae, 
and Ceratophyllum. When these have been added to Endogens, the 
whole constitute his class Coccospermae, which he divides into 
Coleophyta and Liriophyta, the former including Grasses, Cyperaceae, 
Palms, Commelynaceae, Juncaceae, Alismaceae, Buppiaceae, Triuri- 
deae, and Hydrocharideae; and the latter Liliaceae, in the widest 
sense, Orchids, Scitamineae, Taccaceae, Araceae, and Piperaceae, 
with the other Exogens named above. M. Horaninow’s remarks on 
these and other points of classification are very general, but he pro¬ 
mises at a future period further details and explanations. 
In further illustration of the readiness with which M. Horaninow 
changes names, it deserves mention that his proposed Suborders of 
Orchids differ from those of Lindley only in name, except in the 
case of Cypripedieae, where there are difficulties in the way of such a 
change.

We cannot permit the receipt of a second part of the first-named 
important work of Dr. Begel’s to pass, with only the brief recog¬ 
nition accorded in our Annual Bibliography. It appears to us to 
deserve the careful notice of botanists, especially of our British 
botanists, on several grounds; chiefly because the author’s mode of 
treatment corresponds very closely with that which we have in pre¬ 
vious notices spoken of as of a kind we would fain our own mono¬ 
graphers and writers of Eloras endeavoured more closely to follow, 
and also because the general character of the vegetation concerned 
has much in common with that of our own islands. 
In a short introduction of six pages the plan of the work is ex¬ 
plained, and an account given of the collections which furnish the 
material for this ‘ Aufzahlung.’ The plants gathered by Hr. G. 
Badde in the Baikal, Dahuria, and Amurland, were transferred to 
the Herbarium of the Imperial Botanic Gardens at St. Petersburg!!, 
through the offices of the Baron von Meyendorff. Dr. Begel, the 
superintendent of this establishment, in undertaking their elaboration, 
found it desirable to incorporate with them, in one common enumera-
