Fragmenta Phytographiae, contulit FERDINANDUS VON MULLER…vol.6…1869... The figures accompanying the present volume are very well executed, and reflect great credit on Messrs. Schoenfield, De Gruchy and Leigh, who, under the direction of Dr. F. von Mueller, sketched and lithographed them. Such drawings display considerable artistic skill, and the miniature portions of the flowers, which have been magnified for the purpose of conveying, a clearer conception to the student, will be highly useful in a scientific point of view.
