Rudbeck’s works are perhaps not appropriate 
to a list of books on gardening, but a few of 
them which are said to contain introduced spe¬ 
cies are tentatively set down here, because of 
their rarity, for later examination. (MF,¥)

This was the first part issued of an intend¬ 
ed work in 12 volumes, for which about 11,000 
figures had been prepared when everything was 
lost in the great fire of Upsala in 1702. The 
2d volume of the work had also been published 
in 1702, but very few copies of either had been 
taken from the press, and both are excessively 
rare. Only a few copies are known of Liber I, 
1702, comprising the grasses, sedges and rush¬ 
es, which is reproduced in ’’Reliquiae Rudbeck- 
ianae” (London, 1789), but is not included in 
this bibliography. Liber II, 1701, containing 
the bulbous plants: iris, narcissus, hyacinth, 
tulip, lilies and saffron, is said to be even 
more rare than the first. Above examples are 
listed by Krok, Bib. Bot. Suec., p,604, besides 
which Jackson, Guide Lit. Bot., p.30, mentions 
a complete copy in the Sherardian library at 
Oxford, Haller, Bib, Bot., 1:530, said that 
he possessed a copy of Liber II; but there is 
no trace of its present location.
