LINNÆUS’S SOURCES

[This section will be repeated in each installment of the text, with additions and corrections as they become available.]

_All sources that could be identified are listed here in alphabetical order._

An increasing number of these sources are available online. To fill in gaps in this segment, some citations from Reede (“Rheed. mal.”) were individually checked.

Texts by Linnæus himself (“Propria”) are not listed. Four sources-- Hasselquist, Kalm, Loefling, Osbeck-- appear to have been students. Most of their citations would today be called “personal communication”.

Note that the title pages of published books will often have different inflectional endings than those shown: for example, a title given as “Plantæ Rariores” might appear in print as “Libri Decem Plantarum Rariorum”. The words “Listed as” refer to the “Auctores” pages at the beginning of the volume.

ADDENDA and CORRIGENDA

Author’s Addenda

_Longer items were listed at the end of the first volume. Brief additions were listed twice, 30 pages apart, at the end of the second volume. Additions to the present selection, Dodecandria through Icosandria, are:_

_correction (“rectius”) to Pyrus communis (page 479):_ Pyrus foliis serratis, floribus corymbosis. _See Author’s Errata, below, for additional changes to this entry._ _correction (“rectius”) to Pyrus Malus (page 479):_ Pyrus foliis serratis, umbellis sessilibus. _It is not clear whether the author intended to delete the last phrase in this entry, so it has been retained._ _paragraph added to Rubus Chamæmorus (page 494):_ _Hæc species omnino _Dioica_ est._

Author’s Errata

_The Errata list appears at the end of the second volume. All changes have been made. The items that apply to the present section are:_

page 447 no. 6 _for_ thylimifolia _read_ thymifolia _printed text appears to read “hyhmifolia”_ page 479 Pyrus 1 _for_ foliis basi _read_ pomis basi _See Author’s Addenda, above, for additional changes to this entry._ page 514 no. 1 _for_ aniculata _read_ paniculata „ „ no. 2 _for_ ateriflora _read_ lateriflora _both under Microcos_ page 524 Cistus 5 _for_ trinervius _read_ trinerviis page 527 Cistus 19 _for_ solitariis subsessilibus bractea triplici _read_ erectis, pedicellis horizontalibus page 538 no. 1 _add_ Hepatica _May be holdover erratum from first edition: text already has “Hepatica”_ page 540 no. * _for_ Anemonoide _read_ Anemonoides page 557 no. 1 _for_ umaroides _read_ Fumaroides _printed text reads “umarioides”_

Species Names

A few species names were later modified, sometimes by Linnaeus himself. Most two-word names are now joined with a hyphen, as “Arbutus uva-ursi” and similar; a few are written without the hyphen. Mid-word capitals such as “ChamæCistus” have generally been eliminated.

Mimosa cinerea _This name is used twice, for nos. 10 and 25. One of the two may be an error for Mimosa cineraria._ Cratægus Crus galli C. crus-galli Mespilus Chamæ Mespilus M. chamaemespilus

Typographical Errors and Misspellings Noted by Transcriber

_Orthographic variation between u and v was left unchanged, as was capitalization of species names, including mid-word capitals. Forms in “ae” or “oe” where “æ” or “œ” was expected were silently changed. See below for errors in punctuation and typography._

Punctuation and Typography

_Many periods (full stops) at the end of abbreviations were missing or invisible. These have been silently supplied. Commas printed in place of periods, and similar errors, were silently corrected. A few clearly incorrect periods were deleted._

_Some words and letters used italic type where roman would be expected, or the reverse. In particular, the form “Habitat _in Nnn_” was common. These irregularities have been silently adjusted._

_The html version of this text includes notations of all irregularities in punctuation and typography. The complete (two volumes, 1200 octavo pages) version of the text will also include a fuller listing._
