Book Synopsis The Student's Handbook of British Mosses (Classic Reprint) by : H. N. Dixon
Download or read book The Student's Handbook of British Mosses (Classic Reprint) written by H. N. Dixon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 772 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Student's Handbook of British Mosses The object of the present work is to provide a practical handbook of the mosses of our Islands in such a form as to be as far as possible accessible to the considerable, and I hope increasing number of students of these plants, many of whom find the larger and more expensive works on the subject beyond their means. Most bryologists have doubtless been asked to recommend the most suitable book for the student, and have probably experienced considerable difficulty in answering the question. Wilson's Bryologia Britannica - the prince of bryological books -is out of reach of many on account of its price, and is. after the lapse of forty years, far from covering the whole field of British mosses as they are known to us. Berkeley's Handbook is similarly out of date (about 465 species are there described out of some 600 as at present recognised); besides which some parts of that work, the plates especially, leave much to be desired. Hobkirk's Synopsis, though containing much valuable information in a small compass for one already well versed in bryology, is somewhat too compressed to be of great service to the less practised collector, nor has it the advantage of illustrations. Braithwaite's splendid and elaborate work, still in the course of publication, which has done so much to stimulate the study of these plants in our country and which will doubtless remain our standard work for many years to come, is of necessity published at a price which puts it out of the reach of many. There is therefore, unquestionably, a demand for a modern book which may serve to take the place of the older works in the hands of the student, and which, while of modest pretensions in comparison with such a work as the British Moss Flora, may be sufficiently detailed to serve the purpose of the beginner as well as of the more advanced bryologist. How far the present work fulfils these requirements must be left to others to decide. With the above object in view it has been necessary to compress the work into as small a space as is compatible with clearness, in order to keep the price as low as possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Mosses What then is a Moss? This is a question not to be hastily answered, and will I think be best answered at the end and not at the beginning of this paper. If you are working deductively, your definitions may come at the beginning; but if by patient investigation into natural facts, beware of starting with definitions - they ought to be the ripest fruit of your longest labour. Classzfication. Vegetable productions are commonly divided into two great groups those which possess obvious blossoms, or Phanerogams, and those which possess no obvious blossoms, or Cryptogams. The Cryptogams are again divided into two great groups - those Whose structure is built up of cells without regularly formed vessels, such as sea weeds, fungi and lichens, the cellular Cryptogams; and those which, like the ferns and the club-mosses, possess, in addition to cells, regularly formed vessels; these are known as Vascular Cryptogams.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of British Mosses: Comprising All That Are Known to Be Natives of the British Isles This Work is to be regarded as one of a series of Manuals of different branches of Botany, and not as a separate publication. It is by no means the wish or intention of the Author or Publisher, to offer it to the public in any spirit of opposition to the excellent author of the 'Bryologia Britannica.' On the contrary, it is hoped that it may be the means of calling the attention of many to his volume, of which it is impossible to speak in too favourable terms, as the slight sketch here presented may excite a wish to apply to the fountain-head for fuller information. As regards the execution, I can only say that every species of which I could obtain specimens has been carefully reviewed under the microscope; and as I had, through the kindness of Sir W. J. Hooker, unlimited access to the unrivalled collection in Kew, which, amidst a multitude of other authentic specimens, contains almost a complete series of those described by Mr. Wilson, there are very few species which I have been obliged to leave unexamined.

Book Synopsis British Fungi, Lichens and Mosses by : Edward Morell Holmes
Download or read book British Fungi, Lichens and Mosses written by Edward Morell Holmes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-13 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Fungi, Lichens and Mosses: Including Scale-Mosses and Liverworts Mushrooms, toadstools, the mildew on walls, the mould on bread, the rust on wheat, and the potato disease, are familiar objects to most of us but few, who are not botanists, are aware that they all belong to the large and varied group of plants com prised under the name of F ungi. It might be still more surprising to some to learn that the yeast with which bread is made and beer fermented, the vinegar plant which is used to turn sugar and water into vinegar, and the disagreeable skin-disease called ringworm, all belong to the same class of plants. The extent to which some kinds of fungi are used as articles of food in other countries, is probably almost unknown to those who have not lived abroad; for in England mushrooms, and occasionally trutfles and morels are almost the only kinds used for culinary purposes. Many species that would be despised as loathsome toadstools in this country, form regular articles of diet in Italy, Russia, and other continental countries; while i_n China and Japan several kinds of fungi are cultivated on decaying trunks of trees in the same way that mushrooms are grown in the catacombs of Paris.
