“Very few changes are to be seen in the new edition.... The few errors of the first edition have been corrected, and some alterations have been made for the sake of clearness.”—Bot. Gaz.
“The most important new feature is an explanatory note on variations in ‘Oenothera biennis.’” H. C. Cowles.

“All the misprints that we pointed out in our review of the first edition have been corrected; and even our suggestion that uniformity in the termination of the adjectives derived from such terms as physiology was desirable has been adopted. But, curiously enough, the uniformity is intra-verbal and not inter-verbal. There is no need to commend the book. It is indispensable, inasmuch as it is the only available account of Prof, de Vries’s work in English, so far.” A. D. D.
