Prodromus Systematis Naturalis Regni Vegetabilis also known by its standard botanical abbreviation Prodr. DC. is a 17-volume treatise on botany initiated by A. P. de Candolle. De Candolle intended it as a summary of all known seed plants encompassing taxonomy, ecology evolution and biogeography. He authored seven volumes between 1824 and 1839 but died in 1841. His son Alphonse de Candolle then took up the work editing a further ten volumes with contributions from a range of authors.
