Brown's "Prodromus" was originally published as Volume One, and following the "Praemonenda" (Preface), page numbering commences on page 145. Sales of the "Prodromus" were so poor, however, that Brown withdrew it from sale. Due to the commercial failure of the first volume, pages 1 to 144 were never issued, and Brown never produced the additional volumes that he had planned.

In 1813, a book of illustrations for the "Prodromus" was published separately by Ferdinand Bauer under the title "Ferdinandi Bauer Illustrationes florae Novae Hollandiae sive icones generum quae in Prodromo florae Novae Hollandiae et Insulae Van Diemen descripsit Robertus Brown", usually referred to as "Illustrationes Florae Novae Hollandiae". The "Prodromus" itself was eventually reprinted in 1819, and a slightly modified second edition released in 1821. In 1830, Brown published a short supplement to the "Prodromus", entitled "Supplementum Primum Prodromi Florae Novae Hollandiae".
