Excerpt from The Ferns of Ceylon: With Extracts From Manuscript Notes of the Late Dr. Thwaites, and the Published Works of Hookes, Baker and Wall
This little manual is not intended to take the place of the larger and more important works on this subjects, but simply as a work of ready reference for Pteridologists and botanists generally, especially where the magnificent works of Beddome, Hooker, and others, are inaccessible; and for students who may be desirous of knowing what species of ferns are indigenous on the Island, and also something of the conditions of growth in their native habitat, for the purpose of cultivating the species most advantageously. The genera and species are arranged alphabetically, as being more convenient for reference, and also to obviate the necessity of indexing. It affords me much pleasure to express my obligations to Sir Joseph Hooker, for valuable specimens, and to Mr. J. G. Baker, of the Kew Herbarium, for valuable assistance in the way of books and information.
