Abstract
THE third set of Prof. Korsmo's weed plates completes a series of ninety plates which are unequalled by any previous publication anywhere, in the world. They are bold, colourful and easily understood by the most elementary student, but only a trained botanist can appreciate the accuracy of delineation and the skill with which the salient points have been selected. The illustrations of each weed provide an epitome of the life-history from seed to seed. Germination, seedling stages, mature plants, methods of propagation and seed dispersal all find their place.
Weed Plates Series 3, Plates 61–90
By Prof. Dr. E. Korsmo. 84 cm. × 64 cm. With Textbook of 140 pp. (Leipzig: Koehler and Volckmar A. G. and Co.) 22 gold marks.
