Listing Greek and Latin words, roots or elements used or usable in botanical names and epithets, this book has been compiled in order to help authors to avoid mixture of Greek and Latin in new coinages and understand the meanings of Latin and Greek compound-coinages already in literature. Each list is presented alphabetically under Greek, Latin and English headings, together with equivalents in the other two languages. Besides the main list, there is a three-language supplementary list of 1,620 classical plant names and a listing of commonly found numerals.
