Many thanks Gurcharan ji for the link to Biodiversity Heritage Library. The Search facility in this library is on a broad scale ... yields results according to chosen category.
Only difficulty is: getting to find results, for say any genus, within the opened book. Or perhaps, am missing some method to achieve that. Here are the links to the seven volumes at Internet Archive. The links open the book in Internet Archive BookReader ... a search panel is available at right side. The difficulty here (for me !!) is that I may find the required genus in the 7th attempt. Vol I Ranunculaceae - Polygaleae http://www.archive.org/stream/floraofbritishin01hook#page/n5/mode/2up Vol II Sabiaceae - Cornaceae http://www.archive.org/stream/florabritishind00unkngoog#page/n7/mode/1up Vol III Caprifoliaceae - Apocynaceae http://www.archive.org/stream/floraofbritishin03hookrich#page/n5/mode/2up Vol IV Asclepiadae - Amarantaceae http://www.archive.org/stream/florabritishind03hookgoog#page/n8/mode/1up Vol V Chenopodiaceae - Orchidae http://www.archive.org/stream/florabritishind04hookgoog#page/n8/mode/1up Vol VI Orchideae - Cyperaceae http://www.archive.org/stream/cu31924050778673#page/n5/mode/2up Vol VII Cyperaceae - Graminae http://www.archive.org/stream/floraofbritishin07hook#page/n5/mode/2up Regards.
