The importance of Britisli Botany has always been fully
recognized in the Journal, all the more important dis-
coveries have been recorded in its pages, and most of the
new British species have been figured. With the object of
giving greater prominence to this part of the work, the
Editor has requested Mr. J. Gr. Baker, of the Kew Her-
barium, and Dr. H. Trimen, of the Botanical Department,
British Museum, to undertake its superintendence, and they
have consented to do so.
If the Journal can be continued, it is intended that each
number shall contain, besides original papers, a complete
summary of all important articles which have been re-
cently published, at home or abroad, relating directly
or collaterally to the British flora, and also accounts of
books and papers of value and the botanical news of the
month. Several botanists have promised to supply monthly
articles on these subjects.
The undersigned therefore invite all British botanists to
co-operate in the work of supporting the 'Jouenal of
BoTAisT,' both by subscribing themselves, by inducing others
to do so, and especially by contributing to its pages.
