This laboratory manual has now been used a number of years in conjunction with the introductory courses offered at Texas State University. The original edition of 1956 was printed from mimeographed exercises that had been laboratory tested for several years. The

1966 edition was a single manual composed of both Botany and Zoology exercises.
In 1968 the 1966 edition was revised and illustrations were added. Topical arrangement of the exercises was unaltered.

The 1973 editions established separate General Botany and General Zoology manuals. The Botany exercises have been extensively revised in the present edition. The illustrations and contents have been updated and the lengths of the exercises altered to better coordinate with our present introductory curriculum.
