Blume often sent several copies to Nees for further distribution in Europe. In addition copies were sent to other botanists accompanied by pre-printed letters in which the number of the livraison and the date were filled in by hand. Livr. I was sent to A. P. de Candolle with such a letter on 1 June 1825 which fits de Wit's estimate that it came out between 15 Mar and 31 Mai 1825. |parts (stukken) |pages |dates| |--- |--- |--- | |1 |\[i-x\], \[1\]-42 |15 Mar-31 Mai 1825| |2 |\[43\]-109 |12 Jun-2 Jul 1825| |3 |\[i-iii\], \[111\]-160 |20 Aug 1825| |4 |\[i-iii\], \[161\]-212 |20 Sep 1825| |5 |\[i-iii\], \[213\]-260 |20 Sep-7 Dec 1825| |6 |\[i-iii\], \[261\]-284 |20 Sep-7 Dec 1825| |7 |\[i-iii\], \[285\]-354 |20 Sep-7 Dec 1825| |8 |\[i-iii\], \[355\]-434 |20 Sep-7 Dec 1825| |9 |\[i-iii\], \[435\]-484 |20 Sep-7 Dec 1825| |10 |\[i-iii\], \[485\]-528 |7 Dec-24 Jan 1826| |11 |\[i-iii\], \[529\]-577 |24 Jan 1826| |12 |\[i-iii\], \[578\]-636 |24 Jan 1826| |13 |\[i-iii\], \[637\]-730 |24 Jan 1826| |14 |\[i-iii\], \[731\]-850 |Jul-Dec 1826| |15 |\[i-iii\], \[851\]-941 |Jul-Dec 1826| |16 |\[i-iii\], \[943\]-1066 |Oct 1926-Nov 1827| |17 |\[1067\]-1169 |Oct 1926-Nov 1827| *Copies*: BR, U. – Part 4 was reprinted in 1950 (n.v.).

Oct. **Abbreviated title**: *Nov. pl. expos.* **Notes** *Publ*.: Aug-Dec 1833, p. \[i\], \[1\]-32. *Copy*: BR. – Preprint from *Tijdschrift voor natuurlijke Geschiedenis en Physiologie* 1: 131-162. 1834. Pritzel (844) cites 1833 as the date of this preprint with independent pagination, perhaps because of the date "calendis Augusti 1833" on p. 32. The note "paru a Leyde vers la fin d'août 1833" in Ann. Sci. nat. Bot. ser. 2. 2: 89-106. Aug. 1834 (reprint of the article) may well be based only on the date in the preprint. This preprint is mentioned as "vorgelegt" at the meeting of the Regensburger botanische Gesellschaft of 1 Mar 1834, see Flora 17: 236. 21 Apr 1834. The reprints in the "Tijdschrift" and "Annales" came out almost at the same time: the independently paged issue may therefore be regarded as a preprint. A copy at L presented by Blume to Korthals carries no inscribed date, but in the absence of indications to the contrary the date 1833, appearing in the preprint, must be taken as correct. *Ref*.: CSP 1: 437; PR 844. ##### n.566.

A final single page of errata reported by some bibliographies for the fourth volume is not present in the Utrecht copies. The second folio sheet with dedication \[v-viii\] in vol. 2 (identical with that of vol. 1) is absent from the second Utrecht copy. The 210 plates are lithographs of drawings by a number of artists (listed by Nissen) and numbered *1-200, 157b, 163c, 167b, 172b, 172c, 176b, 176c, 178b, 178c, 200b*. A prospectus announced the first fascicles (see Flora 28 Nov 1835); the text of this prospectus is reproduced in Flora 19(1) Int. Bl. 5-11. 21 Feb 1836. A new announcement appeared in Flora 20(1) Int. Bl. 23-27. 14 Jun 1837 (dated Jan 1837); it mentioned the completion of 12 fascicles scheduled for Apr 1837. Hefte 13-15 were announced by Flora (21: 255) on 28 Apr 1838. "Die Rumphia ist jetzt endlich vollendet.

Museum botanicum **Title** *Museum botanicum* Lugduno-Batavum sive stirplum exoticarum, novarum vel minus cognitarum ex vivis aut siccis brevis expositio et descriptio. Leiden (E. J. Bril) 1849-1851 \[-1857\], 2 vols. Oct. **Abbreviated title**: *Mus. bot.* **Notes** *Publ*.: The details of publication are not yet quite clear. The book is divided in dated (monthly) parts. It is not likely that distribution took place per part but rather in sets of parts. The Leiden University Library received parts 1-20 together in Jan. 1850. This was perhaps a prepublication set. Miquel reports in the Algemeene Konst- en Letterbode that nos. 1-4 were received in November 1949, 5-9 in April 1850, 9-14 in Oct 1850 (with Mai on the date of the cover!). Beumée has already shown that for volume two the dates given in the volume cannot be accepted. The Nieuwsblad van den Boekhandel lists vol. 1 as a whole only for the period 5-12 Mar 1852, vol. 2 part 1-8 for Feb (confirmed by the receipt of these issues by the Dutch Academy of Sciences in Jan 1856), 9-12 for Mai 1856 (idem Dutch Acad. Sci.) and 13-16 were issued together on 19 Feb. 1857. The 56 lithographs are of drawings by Blume, Decaisne, Latour and A. J. Wendel. – Blume sometimes withheld his publications from his colleagues. In other instances the possibility of antedating should not be excluded. Miquel states in a letter to Schlechtendal (cf. Stafleu 1967) that some parts of the Museum botanicum are antedated by half a year "um der Ehrsucht alle Priorität zu retten und die Bearbeitung von Pflanzen des öff. Herbars durch andere so gut wie unmöglich zu machen...". |vol. |part |pages |figures (one plate per part) |dates on parts |dates| |--- |--- |--- |--- |--- |--- | |1 |1 |\[1\]-16 |1-3 |kat.

Copies*: MICH, U. – 56 of the plates are coloured, *t. 26* is double (2 p.); artists: T. Bik, Blume, Gordon, Latour, van Raalten, A. J. Wendel. – Also issued as *Collection des Orchidées* (cf. below, no. 569). It is possible, that the parts of the two editions were issued almost simultaneously. This edition has 162, the *Collection* has 190 pages. *Ref*.: Jackson p. 397; MW p. 45; NI 175; PR 847 \[see also sub 569\]; IDC 5853. ##### n.569.

This is almost certainly identical (except for the imprint) with the original Amsterdam issue. The MO-copy has an engraved t.p.

For the story of Blume's *Mélanges botaniques* see van Steenis. The book must be considered as unpublished. No copies are known to exist. The new names attributed to Blume's *Mélanges* date from their publication by C. Mueller (of Berlin) in Walpers, *Ann. Bot.* 4: 642-644. 1857, and (anon, in) Flora 41: 254-256. 1858. The copies mentioned as received by *Flora* (38: 752. 21 Dec 1855) seem to have been loose sheets, possibly proofs. They have never been traced. **Notes** *Ref*.: SK p. clxxii-clxxiii (Steenis). - Miquel, Bot. Zeit. 14: 176. 7 Mar 1856.
