M. Decandolle seems to doubt, vhether the peregrinum 
of Linnzeus had been derived from the sample in the Her- 
barium, or from the figure in Feuillée’s work, quoted as the 
synonym by the founder of the species, and which is the 
same with the dipetalum of Flora Peruviana. It is evident 
that Feuillée’s plant and the one of the Herbarium are 
specifically distinct.
