It is likely that the copy mentioned by Flora (see above) was a similar set. The treatment of the vascular cryptogams, and in general the publication of the second volume, is by Ph. Becker. The second volume was promised for the autumn of 1870, but the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian war at that time makes it difficult to ascertain its date of publication. Jessen, *in* Pritzel (1872) mentions only tome I. *Ref*.: P.A., Bot. Zeit. 28: 611-613. 23 Sep 1870 (rev. of torn. 1). - Winter, Flora 53: 292-304. 1870 (rd. 1).
