Note to Senecio lilacinus, fol. 1342. 



Mr. Don has obligingly pointed out to us the place in which Senecio 

 lilacinus has been named. It is described and figured in a little memoir by 

 Dr. Schrader, called " Blumenbachia novum h Loasearum familia genus ; 

 adjectis observationibus super nonnuUis aliis rarioribus aut minus cognitis 



Slantis," p. 39. t. 4. f. 1. It is a native of the Cape; and in the opinion of 

 ^ Ir. Don must be placed next Senecio venustus, to which it comes nearest 

 in affinity.
