Part 1 covers ferns and allies (Lycopodiopsida, Equisetopsida and Pteridopsida)
Part 2 covers the conifers (Pinopsida)
The remaining parts cover the flowering plants (Magnoliopsida):
- Part 3, covering a group of dicotyledon families (Lauraceae to Salicaceae)
- Part 4, covering another group of dicotyledon families (Brassicaceae to Saxifragaceae)
- Part 5, covering the dicotyledon family Rosaceae
- Part 6, covering another group of dicotyledon families (Mimosaceae to Dipsacaceae)
- Part 7, covering the dicotyledon family Asteraceae
- Part 8, covering the monocotyledons (Butomaceae to Orchidaceae)
The list gives an English name and a scientific name for each species, and two symbols are used to indicate status (e for extinct species, and * for introduced species).
