Dr. Hind tells us that his Flora is " not to be regarded as a
complete and exhaustive work; it is only a step onward." We
hope that the new Flora when it comes may combine the painstaking
ability of the present author with a greater regard for
portabihty and for typographical details than is manifested by the
present volume.
We wish to call the attention of our readers to the ' Illustrated
Monograph of British Hieracia,' by Mr. F. J. Hanbury, of which
two parts have already been issued. A critical notice is deferred
until the work has made further progress ; meanwhile, we cannot
reh'ain from expressing our admiration of the plates, which take
rank among the most beautiful productions of the kind. Three
and although the cost of the work,
are issued with each number ;
—6s. each part,—is somewhat high, it is easy to understand that
such figures cannot be produced save at very considerable outlay.
The work is issued quarterly, and may be obtained from the
author, Plough Court, 37, Lombard Street, E.G.
