When the Botanical Survey of India was reorganised in 1954, the Government of India decided on the advice of the eminent Botanists of the country that the important Floras of the country which had gone out of print should be reprinted in order to provide. immediate facilities of work on Systematic Botany of Phanerogams by students and Botanists of the country.

Aw apology is necessary for the sub-title of this book, as large groups of plants of which very little is known in Bihar and Orissa, viz. the alge (including Characex), fungi and Muscinex, have not been touched upon.

The basis of the book is my own notes and collections,* and the duties of a forest officer in India leave so little time for the pursuit…

Panicles most variable as to size. Flowers bisexual. Tepals free, coloured membra- nous, 3 inner largest, persistent.
