### Publications
##### n.5405. Essai d'une flore de l'île de Zante
**Title**
*Essai d'une flore de l'île de Zante*... \[Genève 1839-1840\]. Qu.
**Abbreviated title**: *Essai fl. Zante*.
**Notes**
*Co-author*: Georges François Reuter (1805-1872).
*Publ*.: 1839-1840 (journal publ.; reprint not dated), p. \[1\]-104, 81-96, *pl. 1-6* (uncol. liths, by Heyland). *Copies*: FI, G, NY, REG. – Reprinted or preprinted from Mém. Soc. Phys. Hist. nat. Genève 8(2): 249-314 \[reprint p. 1-64, *pl. 1-4,6*\] Sep-Oct 1839, 9(1): 1-56 \[reprint p. 65-104 & 81-96, *pl. 5*\]. 1840 \[volume published Mar-Apr 1841\]. – Briquet (1940) gives 1838 as the date of publication of the reprint but we do not know the arguments for this statement. Vol. 8(2) of the *Mémoires* is for 1838 but was published 1839. The paper was "read" to the Society Mar 1838; the reprint has no title-page. The abnormal pagination suggests preprinting of at least part 2. Copies of reprints with journal pagination: E, WU.
