On Plants

original title:  Περὶ φυτῶν
original language:  Ancient Greek

On Plants (Greek: Περὶ φυτῶν; Latin: De plantis) is a botanical treatise included in the Corpus Aristotelicum but usually regarded as Pseudo-Aristotle. In 1923, a manuscript containing the original Arabic translation from Greek, as done by Ishaq ibn Hunayn, was discovered in Istanbul, which led scholars to conclude the work was likely an exegesis/commentary by philosopher Nicolaus of Damascus (d. 4 AD) on a treatise by Aristotle which is now lost. On Plants describes the nature and origins of plants. Source: Wikipedia (en)
