Abstract
THERE is probably no publication which is awaited with such interest and impatience as the issue from time to time of the supplements of the “Index Kewensis.” Had it not been for the interruption of the war, the list of genera and species published, or the publication of which was ascertained; in the five years 1911–15, would doubtless have been available to botanists less than six years after the second date. This delay was inevitable, but it may be assumed that Supplement 6, comprising the years 1916–20, is well on the way and will be available for workers before another five years have passed. Some names published abroad during 1914 and 1915 were not noted in time for insertion in the present supplement, but will be included in the next.
