Abstract
THE May number of the Journal of Botany, British and Foreign, commences with the first part of a Clavis Agaricinorum by the well-known fungologist, Mr. Worthington Smith. The general classification of the Agarics adopted by Fries and Berkeley is followed; but several new sub-genera are proposed. An ingenious tabular view accompanies the paper, presenting the salient features of the series and sub-genera of this vast genus at a glance. Dr. Seemann continues his revision of the natural order Bignoniaceœ; while the Hon. J. L. Warren contributes a paper on a sub-division of Rubus, a most intricate genus, to which he has paid special attention; and Dr. H. Trimen a description of a new British Callitriche. Other short notes and notices fill up the number, which maintains the interest for British botanists especially, promised on the commencement of the new series.
