The Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden, published quarterly since 1914, contains peer-reviewed papers primarily devoted to systematic botany and evolution. The Annals reflect the global mission of the Garden, with contributing authors from the Americas, Africa, Europe, Asia, and Australasia.
This volume includes eleven articles on diverse subjects and are dedicated to Walter H. Lewis, Professor of Biology at Washington University, by some of his former graduate students.
