To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Berberis, so similar to B. communis, differs from it ; it is perhaps B. vidgaris Nigra, of the Levant. Most other plants, as Bubus fruticosus, Pragaria sUvestris, &c. have been called so, by persons who suffered themselves to be deceived by a super- ficial (slight) resemblance. " It would be very difficult for me, without an Herbarium without books, and even engravings, to speak positively, and to state, that the Neilgherries have no species in common with any other part of the globe. For insta...nce, I think the 102 BOTANT. Mahonia D. C. which grows there, is the Pascicularis of America, &c. ; but the diflEerence in the physiognomy of vege- tation is as great, as between that of Torniea in Sweden, and that of Naples. " The family of the Compositse, is pretty numerous in the Neilgherries, as is the case on all high mountains, particular- ly the genus Gnaphalium ; the family of the Fricese verse, is found only in those genera which approach nearest to Vac- cinium ; some species of Eanuncularia : two of Clematis ; one Magnoliacese, (I think of the subdivision of Michelia, but not Champaca ;) some fine species of the Cruciferae : I can only say, that with regard to »11 these, the plants which I had it in my power to examine, and compare, are different from simi- lar species found elsewhere.
