Solution

The correct option is A Philosophia Botanica
Philosophia Botanica was published by the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus in 1751 who greatly influenced the development of botanical taxonomy and systematics. It is the first textbook of descriptive systematic botany and botanical Latin. It also contains Linnaeus's first published description of his binomial nomenclature.
So, the correct option is 'Philosophia Botanica'.
