(The best botanical figures are the objects themselves.) PHILADELPHIA. Collected, ascertained and described between 1815 & 1840. Of the self-figures of this Work, only 5 co- pies can be prepared, whereof 4 of small folio size, will be sold at $ 10 for each volume or Century—one containing the largest specimens, often exceedingly beautiful, and put up in large folio paper, will be held at $20 for each Cen- tury—one Century consisting of Unique Spe- cimens (probably in no other collection) will be held at $50; of this 4 sets of drawing will be made if required at the same price, 1 The Octavo Text, of which 100 copies will be printed,shall be sold at 10 cents per Century or 50 cents for each part of 5 centuries. Besides this great Iconographieal Work, the following detached parts or additional speci- mens are also prepared. Pomona of North Amorica.—Pterikon or Ferns of N. Amer. and other parts—Lirikon or New and fine Lilies—Agrostikon or new and rare Grasses—Erikon or figures of Heaths, An- dromedas, Diosmas and other Ericoid Shrubs —Autikon Formosum or of beautiful plants— Dendrikon or new Trees and Shrubs of North America—Sets of Monographs of many inter- esting natural Families and Genera— prices from $5 to $20 per century. Herbals of North America, or 100 collections of 100 to 300 specimens each of usual plants and shrubs, with generic labels, and printed di- rections for study, at $4 per century: unlabel- led at $3 per century, Herbals of European, Asiatic and African plants—also of Medical plants—also of Agricul- tural and Horticultural plants at $5 to $ 10 per Century. INTRODUCTION. Although I am a Draftsman and can both draw and paint the plants that I collect, yet the expense of time in doing so, with the cost of en- graving and colouring the drawings, are so great that I have but seldom availed myself of my talent and opportunities to publish costly figures of new or rare plants. I have preferred and I do now again prefer giving the specimens themselves for authentic figures. "This can be doue as cheap or cheaper than by multiplied figures: many splendid works of Iconographi- cal Botany are often published at much higher rates. Copied figures are not always accurate, nor expressing many minute characters of sur- face &c, and some botanists are not satisfied un- til they can examine the original specimens of discoverers or improvers; or when wishing to detract from the merit of vast botanical resear- ches, they deny the accuracy of whatever they cannot verify. This Autikon of 2500 figures by specimens will be the best answerto any vain attempt to depreciate my discoveries and researches— although I have 5000 fine plants to illustrate in this manner, I have selected for this work, the rarest or new, else the finest or unfigured; such as will illustrate my botanical works and im- provements, particularly those that shall be omitted in the North American Flora, lately undertaken jointly by Torrey,Gray and Nuttal, who have overlooked or left unnoticed many of our New Genera and Species, because either not met by them, or blended with others when seen in fields or herbals. Whence the need of giving sometimes the figures of akin species for contrast. 4 INTRODUCTION. Whenever the plants have already been named and described by myself or others, It will be so stated, with a reference to the works where published. If yet new or undescribed, their synoptical description will be given; also their locality and some occasional remarks. The principal works of mine, where such New Genera and Species have chiefly been described already, are the following.

N. B.—The names of Authors will be abre- viated as usual, L. for Linneus, W. Wildenow, Dec.
