Abstract

THE monumental “Index Kewensis” and its successive supplements are recognised as an indispensable part of the equipment of any important botanical institution, affording as they do a ready means of reference to the names, the first places of publication, and geographical distribution of all the known genera and species of flowering plants published from the year 1753 down to the present day. In works of this character, the prompt appearance of the successive issues is of great importance, and it is therefore highly gratifying that new arrangements, mentioned in the preface, have made it possible to publish the seventh Supplement, which covers the period 1921–25, only three years after the appearance of the sixth, which covered the preceding quinquennium, 1916–20.
