Abstract
AT the Manchester meeting of the British Association a Committee was appointed, with a grant of £100, for the purpose of exploring the flora of the Bahamas. The vegetation of this group has long been known to present some very peculiar features, but it is poorly represented in European herbaria. The Committee were fortunate in securing the assistance of Baron Eggers (sometime Commandant at the Danish colony of St. Thomas), who had lately returned from an important botanical exploration in St. Domingo.
