DESCRIBED BY LINNJEUS ETC. 347 
species based on three distinct plants. It is also S. hispida, 
Choisy! non L. fil! Choisy’s S. stricta! is not the plant of 
Bergius, but it is that part of S. tephrodes, E. Mey., from locality 
“a”! for which Meyer’s name may be retained. 
P. 157. S. capitata, Berg. Not seen; but I have no doubt 
Thunberg correctly referred it to his own S. ovata, Lippia ovata, L. 
It is Mrcnopox ovatus, Choisy ! 
P. 159. S. serrata, Berg. Not seen; but the ample descrip- 
tion leaves no doubt that it is the plant afterwards described by 
Linnzus (Mant. p. 250) as S. fasciculata !, a name used by sub- 
sequent authors. Choisy sinks S. serrata, Berg., as a synonym; 
but as it is four years prior to the Linnean name, it must take 
precedence. Of the other species enumerated by Bergius, the 
two following are in his herbarium :— 
HEBENSTREITIA DENTATA, L. ! Sp. Pl. ed. i. p. 629. One spe- 
cimen, correct. 
SELAGO CORYMBOSA, L.! Sp. PL ed. i. p. 629. One specimen, 
correct. 
Species originally published in Linncus's  Mantissa Plantarum,’ 
part i. pp. 1-142 (1767). 
P. 87. Selago ericoides, L. One specimen. Afterwards cor- 
rected to STILBE ERICOIDES, L. Mant. p. 305. 
SELAGO FRUTICOSA, L. One specimen with an urn at the base. 
Thunberg misunderstood the species, and no one has since put it 
right. Choisy called it S. recurva, E. Mey. ; but it is not Meyer's 
plant of that name. Thuuberg’s S. fruticosa represents two 
species (vide infra, p. 355). Meyer's I have not seen, but it is 
not the true plant; and Choisy's is again different. A second 
sheet labelled by Linn:us “S. fruticosa,” but afterwards crossed 
out, is very different, and is S. Thunbergii, Choisy ! (in DC. Prodr. 
xii. p. 9), in part atleast. It has nothing to do with the descrip- 
tion of S. fruticosa, L. 
P. 89. Lippia ovata, L.! Four specimens on one sheet. It is 
the Selago capitata, Berg., S. ovata, Thunb.!, and Micropon 
ovatus, Ohoisy!, and correctly understood by authors. 
Species originally published in Linneus’s ‘Systema Nature,’ 
ed. 13, vol. ii. (1770). 
P. 420. HEBENSTREITIA CORDATA, L.! One specimen, from a 
garden. Correctly understood by authors.
