Abstract
FROM the time of its original appearance in 1893, the "Index Kewensis" has been one of the monumental works in the literature of systematic botany, and the publication of Supplements at regular intervals has always marked a notable stage in the records of plant taxonomy. The appearance of the tenth Supplement is no exception, and although on this occasion there has been inevitable delay in its production, it will none the less receive a warm welcome from botanists throughout the world. To the authorities at Kew every botanical institute must feel indebted for the continuation of an indispensable work of reference.
