Notes on some of the Plants in the foregoing list. 
PoLYGALA. 
There seeps to be very much confusion about these Blepharidia. 
Dr. T. Anderson, in his * Florula Adenensis,’ unites a vast number 
ofthe forms published in DC. Prod. and Wight and Arnott, Prod:, 
under the name triflora of Linnwus. Ihave examined the original 
specimens in the Herrmann herbarium in the British Museum, 
no. 269, published by Linneus in the ‘Flora Zeylanica, vol. il. 
p. 10; I have carefully compared them with the numerous spe- 
cimens in tho Kew herbarium, and have satisfied mysclf that 
there are three or four distinct species. Zriflora is rosmarinifolia 
exactly. The ¢riflora of Wight and Arnott has not such pointed 
leaves and al ; the capsules are not at all margined, and usually 
pubescent, not glabrous. Both of these forms, as well as the third, 
serpyllifolia, to which I would refer the Aden species, though it 
differs somewhat from the Indian form, are prostrate. The last 
form is that described by DC. under the name erioptera, which 
does not suit this particular form, as the ali are almost glabrous— 
only delicately ciliolate ; it may probably be the “ obtusata ” of DC. 
The pubescent form obtains principally to the West of Africa, 
while those from Egypt and Abyssinia are almost identical with 
the Multan type. 
HIBISCUS LAGUNEOIDES. Bipedalis, ramosus, omnino pilis stellatis 
pubescens, foliis late ovatis plus minus trilobatis repandis, stipulis 
minutis subulatis, floribus axillaribus solitariis, pedicellis (ramulisque 
junioribus) glanduloso-pilosis ; involucello 9-fido ; calyce 5-fido ner-
