THIS fifth volume of the Icones of the Plants of Formosa is devoted especially to aew material collected in Formosa since 1912, It is a worthy successor to the previous handsome volumes, and contains studies on 385 species and eight varieties of flowering plants and ferns. The studies are illustrated by seventeen quarto plates and numerous text figures. Two hundred and three of the species are new to science, and twenty-three genera hitherto unrecorded for the island are added to the flora, At present the flora is known to comprise 160 families with 914 genera and 3325 species. One particularly interesting-, discovery is that of a aew species of the ancient fern Archangiopteris, the genus first found by Henry in Yunnan in 1899. The addition of the families Burmanniacea? and Xyridese to the flora of Formosa is also noteworthy. A large number of ferns are” dealt with in this volume, the majority belonging to the Polypodiaceae; one plant called Polypodium urceolare may not belong to this genus, as it is considered by some pteridologists to be a subgenus of Davallia. A long discussion; of the points at issue is given in the text:Icones Plantarum Formosanarum nec non et Contributiones ad Floram Formosanam.By Bunz Hayata. Vol. v., pp. vi + 358 + xvii plates. (Taihoku: Government of Formosa, 1915.)
