Additional information

This paper was undertaken at the request of the Editor, as the ten-year supplement to Dr. Campbell’s “The Relationships of the Hepaticae”, Bot. Rev. 2: 53–66. 1936. However, as the work progressed, it became evident that any understandable summary of the recent, widely diverse views relating to the relationships of hepatics must of necessity also include something of the factual evidence, the basic principles and the background of ideas by way of which the more recent interpretations have evolved. For this reason I have taken the liberty of expanding the scope of the paper, reiterating some of the material already presented by Dr. Campbell and including some additional older works as well, in order to present in outline the concepts of relationships, and also to give an outline of the principle steps in phylogeny in interpreting the hepatics either as a progressive evolutionary series or as a regressive series. The evaluation of the theories and their more recent interpretations is left to the reader.
