Ere long this work will sell at a premium. The Flora of British India comprises brief descriptions, ordinal, generic, and specific, of the Flowering Plants and Ferns found within the British Territories in India, together with those of Kashmir and Western Tibet. "The Flora of British India' is a work to which Sir J. D. Hooker has devoted many years of his life, and it is chiefly written by him, portions having been contributed by other botanists, amongst whom are Mr. Thiselton-Dyer, Mr. C. B. Clarke, Dr. Maxwell T. Masters, Mr. J. G. Baker, and the late Dr. T. Thomson and Dr. T. Anderson. The undertaking may be said to have commenced originally by the publication of the first (and only) volume of Hooker and Thomson's Flora Indica' in 1855; but the present work, which is on a smaller plan, has been brought out in parts, of which the first appeared in 1872, and the last, containing the index, in November, 1897. The whole consists of seven thick octavo volumes, comprising altogether over 5000 closely printed pages, and containing descriptions of 14,520 species."-Nature, July 14th, 1898. 116*HOOKER (W.

BAKER, Esq., F.R.S., etc., and an entirely new coloured map showing the distribution of British Plants, thick 8vo. xlvii and 612 pp. cloth 1883 The first edition, privately printed at Thames Ditton in 1873, having become very rare, this one has been edited from the Author's interleaved copy, which he kept constantly at hand, and entered all records of the occurrence of plants in additional vicecounties that came to his notice. "Those interested in British botany will feel thankful to the publisher for undertaking its publication. "It would be difficult to find a work which has been looked forward to with more anxiety than this new edition of Topographical Botany; difficult, too, to find a book which more thoroughly fulfils the anticipations formed of it. That these anticipations were high it is unnecessary to assert. In the whole range of British botanists it would have been impossible to find two so well fitted for the task of editing the work as those whose names are attached to the short preface with which it opens. United to Mr. Watson by strong ties of personal friendship, Mr. Baker and the Rev. W. W. Newbould are otherwise singularly well adapted to carry on his work, possessing, as they do respectively, the faculty of generalization and the critical mind which were combined in Mr. Watson with such happy results. "The evidences of care and steady work may be traced on every page. The segregates have received much attention-Ranunculus aquatilis, for instance, represented by only 3 in the 1st edition, has here 10 placed under it. Prof. Babington contributes the distribution of the fruticose Rubi; the Roses remain much as before. Detailed distribution of the Callitriches is given, 6 species being enumerated. The Hieracia have received much attention, no fewer than 20 segregates being added. Galinsoga parviflora is inserted as naturalized in Surrey and Middlesex.
