Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Synopsis of the Bacteria and Yeast Fungi and Allied Species (Schizomycetes and Saccharomycetes)
The aim of this little work is almost purely morpho logical; physiological details are only occasionally introduced. The two first chapters are translated, with additions, the more important of which are in dicated by square brackets from Dr. G. Winter's edition of Die Pilze, in Rabenhorst's Kryptoga men-flora, by kind permission of the author. With a View to increase its usefulness, I have added to the few figures there given a considerable number drawn from various sources, in many cases from the original authorities, and a few of my own. I must acknow ledge my indebtedness, for help of various kinds, to Dr. Winter, and also to Dr. John Anthony, of Bir mingham, and Mr. James Britten; and, in addition, to the Summary of Current Researches, in the your/72a! Of the Royal Microscopical Society, as a guide to the literature of the subject.
