special characters:
Italic typeface is represented by surrounding _underscores_.

[OE] and [oe] represent oe-ligatures (upper and lower case).

retained as printed except where typographical errors have been
corrected, as listed at the end of the book.
Note that the style of capitalised species names are retained as they
appear in the original.
