Abstract
APROPOS of the article in NATURE of Oct. 27, p. 655, on “Manuscript Herbals,” Dr. Singer and others interested in the subject may like to have their attention directed to the existence in the Banksian Library (MSS. No. 63), now in the Botanical Department of the British Museum (Natural History), of a volume of water-colour drawings copied from the Codex Anicia Juliana. The interesting point about this collection is that the drawings must have been made before the transference of the Codex to Vienna, since drawings imperfect or missing from the Codex are included and complete in this series.
