In the excellent Catalogue of South American plants, 

 published by Dr. Hooker and Mr. Arnott, in the Botanical 

 Miscellany, it is suggested that the Tr. azureum of Miers 

 may be the same as this. We are, however, enabled to 

 state, from an examination of specimens transmitted lately 

 by Mr. Bridges, that it is a very distinct species, the 

 characters of which may be given thus : 



Tr. azureum ; foliis 5-partitis : laciniis linearibus subaequalibus, petalis 5 ? 



(intense azureis), calyce longioribus, calcare conico sepalis breviore. 



Hab. in Chile, ad Sierra la Campana de Quillota ; alt. 4000 pedum: 

 Bridges.
