Excerpt from Flora Scotica: Or, a Description of Scottish Plants, Arranged Both According to the Artificial and Natural Methods Part is devoted to the Natural Arrangements: and here I may claim the merit of being the first who has made such an attempt with the indigenous plants. This section begins with the Crypto gamia, which in the Linnean system immediately follows the 23d class, or the last included in the first part of the work, and which may thus be said to occupy its right place, whichever method may be followed by the student. In the Cryptogamous or Acotyledonous plants, Observations are frequently added to the synonyms and habitats; but in the other two classes which cor respond with the 23 Linnean classes, treated of. In the foregoing part of the Flora, it has been desirable to exclude all remarks and particular stations, and refer for these to the First Part. In all this, my aim has uniformly been to avoid the inconvenience and the expense of a large book. Could the whole have been comprised in a still smaller compass, it would have been my wish that it should have been so; but to have acquired brevity at the expense of clearness would have been no benefit to those who may use this work, and would have been an Obvious failure in my own Object.
