Sobre este artículo
[1], [1 blank], [18], 562, [20] pp.First edition of a popular handbook with a new system for the classification of plants by genus, based on the structure of their flowers and fruit. The author Joseph Pitton de Tournefort (1656-1708) was one of the first taxonomists of the 18th century. Before publishing any works, he started collecting specimens for his herbarium, which achieved great fame and is kept in the Musée dHistoire Naturelle de Paris. It provided the basis for his first major work, Elemens de botanique, which went through many editions. Pages 448-514 of the present first edition deal with trees and forestry. The text volume is followed by two volumes with many engraved plates.Provenance: William Musgrave (1735-1800), 6th Baronet; Matthew Baillie (1761-1823); the honourable Willem de Reede Ginkel, 9th Earl of Athlone (1780-1844); bookplate of Joseph Lanjouw (1902-1984).l Arnold Arboretum II, p. 311; DSB XIII; Hunt 392; Nissen, BBI 1976; Plesch 438.
