Abstract
ALTHOUGH work on the algæ has been very extensive during the last twenty years, there has been, during that period, a noticeable lack of accessible summaries of recent information. This work should remedy the omission. It is a comprehensive treatment of the morphology of the algæ and it gives impressive testimony both to the extent and variety of the recent work and also to the thoroughness and judgment of its author.
The Structure and Reproduction of the Algæ. Vol. 1: Introduction, Chlorophyceae, Xanthophyceae, Chrysophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Cryptophyceae, Dinophyceae, Chloromonadineae, Euglenineae, Colourless Flagellata.
