<p>Excerpt from Phycologia Britannica, or a History of British Sea-Weeds, Vol. 1 of 3: Containing Coloured Figures, Generic and Specific Characters, Synonymes, and Descriptions of All the Species of Algae Inhabiting the Shores of the British Islands With regard to the method of publication, two plans suggest themselves, each of which has its advantages. The first is, having taken a View of the whole subject, to adopt a Systematic Order; to commence with the first genus of the arrangement, to go re gularly through the species, then those of the next and following genera, and so on to the conclusion of the work. Thus the se veral tribes would follow in correct order; the first plates would represent the highest or the lowest type of organization, as either was selected as a starting point, and those that followed would exhibit a regular gradation Of affinity to the Opposite end of the series. This is the course which, were the work to issue as a whole from the press, one would naturally follow; but in an ex tensive periodical work which it will take five years to complete.
