A scarce annual plants of about three or four feet in 

 height, introduced into our hothouses by!M-Thouin in 1776; 

 but we believe long since lost, .^-The sample for the drawing 

 was kindly furnished us Iw Mr, Barker Webb, who had 

 raised it from seed gathered in the Botanic Garden of 

 Count Parolini, at Bassano.

According to M. Caasini, from whose writings Wp trans- 

 late the generic character and specific description, phe spe- 

 cies has a wide range, having been observed on the ban1^ 

 of the Nile, near Rosetta, as well as in India and Mada- 

 gascar. ITiere is a native Egyptian sample deposited by 

 Forskfil in Mr. Brown's Herbarium. 



The Rue-like scent exhaled by the plant is supposed to 

 proceed from the glandular corpuscles dispersed over the 

 whole plant, and very tluckly over the germens.
