Botanical publications of Douglas Henry Kent

The following list includes all the publications that we have been able to trace, with the exception of the many book reviews in Natural History Book Reviews from 1976 onwards. Also excluded are numerous administrative and editorial notes that have appeared in the BSBI's publications. When presenting an equivalent list of J. E. Lousley's publications, Kent (1977) said that they "span more than half a century". In fact they spanned 51 years, exactly the same as did his own works at his death, although in th e latter case there were a few more to follow. 1947 Notes on the flora of Middlesex.
