Since 1931, Brittonia, assuming the broadest possible definition of the field of systematic botany, has been an important outlet for the publication of original research articles on anatomy, botanical history, chemotaxonomy, morphology, paleobotany, phylogenetic systematics, taxonomy, and phytogeography.
Each issue contains articles by the staff of The New York Botanical Garden and outside contributors, book reviews, announcements, and news items.
For over a century, the Index to American Botanical Literature
has provided bibliographic data both on books and articles in periodicals.
The Index, published initially in the Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical
Club and subsequently in Brittonia, went to an entirely electronic
format in 1999. It can be found at: http://www.nybg.org/bsci/iabl.html
Quarterly. Published since 1931.
