Excerpt from Morphology of Gymnosperms Attention is called to the fact that on the basis of new knowledge we have reorganized our presentation of the gametophyte, by recog nizing the spore as its first cell, rather than the mother cell, as in the previous Volume. This needs no explanation, as it seems clear that the sporophyte generation ends and the gametophyte generation begins With the appearance of the spore.

Such illustrations as have been copied are not only credited, but also referred to the publications in Which they first appeared. The authors appreciate, perhaps more keenly than anyone, that a book of this nature in a certain sense is out of date as soon as it has left the press. Papers will continue to appear which would have been of great service in this volume, and yet'perhaps no great group of plants is just now in better condition for a presentation Which professes to be only a concise summary of knowledge, useful in stimulating and guiding further research.
