Publication Dates of Early Scientific Journals in Victoria

Abstract

The Victorian Institute for the Advancement of Science, the Philosophical Society of Victoria and the Philosophical Institute of Victoria were all predecessors of the present Royal Society of Victoria. Between 1854 and 1860 all three bodies published Transactions which included papers by Ferdinand J. H. Mueller (1825-1896) of importance to botanical taxonomy. As the dates of publication of these Transactions affect botanical nomenclature evidence concerning such dates is presented here.
