Our drawing of this rare bulb was made from a plant 
supplied by J. H. Slater, Esq. “of Newick Park, to whom 
we have had to express our acknowledgments upon more 
than one previous occasion. It is a native of the Cape of 
Good Hope, and requires the treatment of similar plants 
from that country. 
With regard to the genus of this species, we confess 
our ga be by ‘A means decided. Mr. Herbert 
includes it in his Ammocharis; but the difference between 
that genus and Nerine of the same gentleman is not 
clear to us: in the meanwhile, the fruit of A. coranica 
being unknown, we judge it best to leave the ano 
among the mass of other Amaryllideous plants calle 
Amaryllis. IL
