""An Enumeration Of The Plants Of The Galapagos Archipelago"" is a botanical book written by Joseph Dalton Hooker in 1851. The book is a comprehensive list of the plants found on the Galapagos Islands, a volcanic archipelago located in the Pacific Ocean.

The book includes detailed descriptions of the plant species, their habitats, and distribution on the islands. It also includes illustrations of some of the plants, as well as a map of the archipelago. The book is considered an important contribution to the study of the flora of the Galapagos Islands and remains a valuable resource for botanists and researchers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
