An alphabetical compilation of most of the recognized genera of life, of the animal and vegetable kingdoms, including bacteria and other parasitic forms of existence. The genera are listed with at least one example of their respective species, each described in detail. Wherever possible, the family to which each genus belongs has also been included. Includes more than 5,280 genera, making this book one of the most comprehensive compilations of its type ever published. An index of the more common or lay names of the various genera has been included, to enable the user to more easily identify the scientific or Latin name of the specific genus searched for. A valuable reference for botanists and zoologists.
