Book excerpt: Excerpt from Myxophyceae, Pedinieae, Bacillarieae, Chlorophyceae, Together With a Brief Summary of the Occurrence and Distribution of Freshwater Algae, Vol. 1 The rapid development of certain branches of botanical science in recent years has emphasised the need of books by specialists on different groups of the vegetable kingdom. After acquiring a superficial knowledge of the larger groups, the student who desires to pursue the subject beyond the limits of a general text-book receives but little assistance from existing treatises, at least as regards recent researches into the morphology and natural history of plants. The enormous output of original papers renders the task of keeping abreast of current work increasingly difficult: the accumulation of facts necessitates a periodic review from a broad standpoint of the results of recent work, more especially as they affect the actual problems of evolution presented by the various classes of plants. It is with a view of meeting this want that the present series is designed. Professor West's book dealing with certain groups of Algae is the first of the Handbooks to appear. The Volumes on Lichens, Fungi, and Gnetales by Miss Lorrain Smith, Dr Helen Gwynne-Vaughan, and Professor Pearson respectively are in an advanced state of preparation.
