Abstract
IN the Journal of Botany for December 1891, Mr. W. West describes a collection of Freshwater Algæ from Maine, including several new species and varieties; and we have also Mr. W. Carruthers's Report of the Department of Botany in the British Museum for 1890, recording important additions to the herbarium and collections, by purchase, exchange, and gift; among the more interesting being the late Mr. J. Ralfs's type-specimens for his “British Desmidieæ.”—Dr. D. H. Scott gives a detailed account of the life and writings of the late Prof. Carl v. Nägeli.
