= Pritzel 5002; "The first flora of France, using a 'méthodique analytique'." (Hunt 653). "His innovation was the establishment of dichotomous keys to aid in the identification of French plants; by eliminating large groups of plants at each stage through the use of mutually exclusive characteristics, the given name of any plant could be rapidly determined. This "method of analysis," as Lamarck called it, was much easier to use in identifying plants than Linnaeus' artificial system of classification (...). Lamarck's new approach and his criticisms of Linnaeus impressed Buffon, who arranged to have the Flore published by the government." (DSB VII, p.585).

In Verbindung mit dem Index entwarf er die Grundzüge einer wissenschaftlichen Pflanzengeographie. M. zählt zu den bedeutendsten Botanikern des 17. Jh." (NDB 17, p.94ff).
