Another feature of this Bibliography is the sixteen colour plates which attempt to illustrate the developments in botanical illustration. . The Bibliography itself is meant to be a finding aid, firstly for botanists who need to locate copies of the old botanical works for nomenclature and historical purposes, and secondly for collectors of botanical Africana who want to know what is available in the field of botany, and where copies can be studied."
