À Contribution to our knowledge of the Genus Agathosma. 409 
mouth of the Knysna River, 150 m, Aug. 1888, Tyson, 997! hills bor- 
dering Hartebeest Vlakte, Plettenberg Bay, Bowie, 15! 
Tyson's specimens do not differ in any salient details from the ty- 
pieal species except that the petals are glandless, and that the staminodes 
ore relatively shorter.

Bolus (no.5465) from hills near Bot. River, 210 m, July, 1885. I re- 
gard as conspecifie with À. cerefolium Bartl. and Wendl. 
Wolley Dod (2705) from the „Little Lion over Hout Bay“, Cape 
Peninsula, July 1897, erroneously referred to À. Ventenatiana by Bolus 
and Dod in their List of Cape Peninsula Plants, p. 246, may be a form 
of this species. 
12. Agathosma florifera Dümmer, nov. spec. 
Fruticulus xerophyticus, dense divaricato-ramosus sparse foliosusque, 
ut videtur prostratus vel decumbens; ramuli brevissimi, teretiusculi, 
brunnei puberulique. Folia patula, interdum reflexa, anguste ovata, 
obtuse acuta, basi rotundata, circiter 2—2,5 mm longa, crassiuscula, 
supra planiuseula, nitentia, atroviridia, laevia, subtus incrassate costata, 
apicem versus gibboso-costato-carinata, margine costa dimidio superioreque 
distanter pectinato-ciliolata, ceterum glabra; petiolus 0,3—0,5 mm longus, 
planus, flavescens. Umbella congesta, ramulos brevissimos terminans, 
5—10-flora, floribus (sicco) carneis, pedicellis 3—4 mm longis inferne 
parcipuberulis mox glabris flavescentibus suffultis. Calyx circiter 2 mm 
longus, extra fere glaber, lobis inferne ampliatis superne obtuse acumi- 
natis apice interdum piliferis dorso carinatis, carina parciciliolata, margine 
glabris. Petala unguiculata, 4 mm longa, 1,1—2 mm lata, glabra, limbis 
oblongis, rotundatis basi attenuatis. Stamina 4—5 mm longa, glaberrima; 
staminodia anguste lanceolata, 2,5 mm longa, utrinque attenuata, apice 
saepe uncinata, medio puberula ciliolataque. Pistillum glabrum, stylo 3— 
4 mm longo. 
Coast Region. Malmesbury Div.; in open situations on the Moor- 
reesberg, 150 m, Oct. 1902, Bolus, 9955! 
Allied to À. rugosa Link, from which its prostrate habit, smaller 
thinner leaves, scarcely recurved margins, almost glabrous pedicels, 
shorter and glabrous petals, and short staminodes distinguish it. 
73. Agathosma muizenbergensis Diimmer, nov. spec. 
Fruticulus ramossisimus, erectus, ad 0,4 m altus, inferne nudus, ra- 
mulis verticillatim dispositis confertis rectis ad 5 cm longis simplicibus 
pallide bruneis patenter puberulis dense foliatis. Folia ascendentia, mox 
patula, imbricata, anguste oblongo-lanceolata, obtusa, basi in petiolum 
complanatum citrineum 0,5 mm longum fere glabrum contracta, 3—6 mm 
longa, circiter 1 mm lata, coriacea, ochraceo-viridia, supra complanata, 
laevia, nitentia, subtus crasse costata, costis marginibusque breviter 
parcistrigillosa, mox glabra, margine paulo inerassata recurvaque, ob- 
solete punctato-glandulosa.  Umbella 10—15-flora, hemisphaerica, 1,5—
