Abstract
THIS elaborate and apparently exhaustive monograph is one of the fruits of the morphological school founded in Munich by Goebel, but the author, struck, as so many writers have been, with the enormous variability of these plants, has here attempted to bring together the facts, not only of the influence of the environment as expressed in the direct action of such agencies as light, situation, water, and other factors, but has also tried to weave these into a sort of system such as can be used by the systematist.
