Notes

Translation of: Elémens de botanique ou Méthode pour connoître les plantes. originally published in Paris, 1694.

Facsimile reprint ed. probably issued ca. 1750, as the "Editio tertia, reprint" described in Stafleu & Cowan. See also Guédès, M. "Notules de bibliographie botanique XVI-XXI," in Archives of natural history (1983), p. 197-200 for the characteristics that distinguish this ed. from the original 1719 version, chiefly involving the title vignette, watermarks, and some differences in text layout.

At end of t. 1: "Josephi Pitton Tournefort ... Corollarium institutionum rei herbariae, in quo plantae 1356 munificentiâ Ludovici Magni in orientalibus regionibus observatae recensentur, & ad genera sua revocantur", with "De generibus plantarum recens institutis" and indexes, [8], 58 p. (p. [1]-[2] of 1st group blank). Pagination and signatures not continuous with main text of Institutiones rei herbariae. Without separate t.p. (half-title and caption titles only).

The plate volumes (t. 2 and t. 3) have engraved half-titles only; t. 2 contains plates 1-252; t. 3 plates 253-489.

Engraved title vignette; woodcut head- and tail-pieces; side-notes; initials.
