More comments on "Insular floras": community of peculiar genera in the Atlantic islands descended from European plants now extinct.
On recent instalment of "Insular floras" in Gardeners’ Chronicle [(1867): 50]. Approves of JDH’s abstract of argument for transport of species [i.e., migration, as opposed to continental extension hypothesis].
On final instalment of "Insular floras" [Gard. Chron. (1867): 75]; rejoices at extent of their agreement.
