Since the First Part of this Flora was issued, a sixth edition of the Manual 
of British Botany by Professor Babington has been published, The nomen- 
clature and general plan of that edition (with one unavoidable exception, 
explained in the text) have been adopted in the present Part. 
In most instances habitats are more numerously quoted in this Part than 
in the former one. 
In accordance with a suggestion made in the Journal of Botany, the initial 
letters "D." and "C." (standing respectively for "Devon" and "Corn- 
wall ") have been placed before the names of the localities, instead of after 
them, as in the First Part. Besides this, they have been printed in a 
different and bolder character, the advantage of which is obvious. 
In the same periodical it was hinted that it would be well to give the 
authorities for the various habitats quoted from Mr. Kavenshaw's List. It 
will be seen that this hint has been acted upon. 
The Author has received further assistance from Mr. T. K. A. Briggs and 
Mr. F. P. Balkwill, for which he tenders them his cordial acknowledgments. 
He has also to thank Mr. Charles Bailey, of Manchester, for a MS. list of 
plants noticed by him in Cornwall in 1866. 
Any corrections, information, suggestions, or advice will be welcome.
