OBSERVED AT MOGA.DOR. 37 



Herbarium at Kew, but not witb Koch's description of hia F. 

 agraria, Lag. (Syn. Ed. ii. 1017) : differing in the broadly apicu- 

 late fruit, not " obtuse, notched with a crenule." I had therefore 

 at first referred the Mogador plant to F. Wirtgeni, Koch ; but a 

 specimen of this from Wirtgen himself in the Hook. Herb, is 

 assuredly nothing but F. muralis, Sond. 



6. Ceratocapnos umbrosa, Drege. 



This very elegant and graceful little plant, with its delicate 

 thread-like stems, fine foliage, pretty fl., and highly curious fr., 

 is very abundant, climbing over low bushes, at a spot called " the 

 Emperor's Garden," two or three miles up the river. The rose or 

 rose-purple flowers tipped with black are rather large propor- 

 tionately. Pods very peculiar, at first horn-shaped with a slender 

 beak curved towards the tip ; afterwards short, corrugate. 



10. " Brassica? fruticulosa, Cyr.," DC? — Possibly a starved 

 example of this plant, resembling Sinapis radicata, Desf. ii. 98. 

 t. 167, in its pods, and in its hispid stem and rootleaves. 



13. Reseda sufruticulosa, L. ; Bab. Man. (Ed. 4) p. 35 ; Eugl. 

 Bot. Suppl. t. 2028. — Apparently perennial, or at least biennial. 

 Stem shrubby at base. Abundant near Mogador. 



16. This is Viola suberosa, Desf. ii. 313, corrected into V. arborea, 

 L. (sic), in his table of emendations at the end of the volume. 



20. Spergularia procwmbens (Vah\.) = Alsine procumbem,W.B. 

 Phyt. i. 149. — Cespitose. El. pale pink or rose. Styles 3. 

 Abundant on the lofty sea-cliffs above the Salinas at the N. end 

 of Lanzarote. 



25. The vine is but sparingly cultivated. 



30. Buta angustifolia, Pers.— This is the true fine-leaved plant 

 of Eeichenb. Ic. Bot. viii. t. 788, f. 1062, agreeing also perfectly 

 with Spanish examples in Herb. Hook, from Bourgeau. The 

 plant has a pleasant, not too powerful, fragrance or aroma, totally 

 different from the strong fetid smell of the Canarian and Madeiran 

 B. bract eosa, DC. Stems slender virgate elongate ; foliage green, 

 not glaucous. 



32. Bhamnus Alaternus, L.— A low bush. Not in fl. or fr. 



33. Pistacia Lentiscus, L— Very abundant on the low hills up 

 the river. A bushy shrub 4-6 feet high, as in Grand Canary and 

 in Palma. 



34. Bhus Oxyacantha, Schousb.— Not in fl. or fr., but sufficiently 

 characterized by its glaucous-grey foliage and want of spines. 



35. Genista gibmltarica, DC— Whole plant dark green, and 

 appearing leafless. Not in fl. or fr.
