Although not the first publication validating the generic name Rafflesia, Robert Brown’s first classic paper on Rafflesia arnoldii was issued as a preprint in April 1821, antedating the publication of the possibly threatening name, R. titan Jack; Brown’s second paper on the genus was also first distributed as a preprint, in September 1844. New names first published in these papers are listed and remarks on the typification of Malesian species (two lectotypifications proposed) added. Rafflesia horsfieldii is apparently conspecific with R. patma, which, if proved, should prompt a move for the conservation of the later name R. patma. Precise datings for certain parts of the Proceedings and Transactions of the Linnean Society are presented and, as a result, it... |

The increased interest in biodiversity assessment studies by plant taxonomists calls for thorough knowledge of ecological theory and experimental design. Many very good textbooks have been published on plant population ecology and my first impression was therefore, is there a need for yet another textbook? After careful reading my answer is ‘yes’. The book is clearly setup with the idea ‘how to set up your experiment’, but it is certainly not a cooking book. After the introduction of theories and case studies from plant ecology the book focusses on the planning of a study. Many examples from the literature are used to provide the reader with more insight in ecological research. This part ends with the statistical design of experiments, written by Elizabeth... |
