Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Supplement to Gordon's Pinetum: Containing Descriptions and Additional Synonymes of All the Coniferous Plants Not Before Enumerated in That Work
Babylonian confusion which still exists in their nomencla ture, from the misapplication of names, either through ignorance or design. The trade lists, too, with some praiseworthy exceptions, still abound with numerous aliases, as may be seen by a slight comparison of such lists with the ample indexes given at the end of the Pinetum, and the present Supplement, where all the synonymes are printed in Italics.
