A rather noteworthy plant, having much the general appear- 
ance of Myoporum platycarpum, R. Dr. ; in fact it is remarkably 
homoplastie with forms of that species of which the leaves are 
serrulate, although it can be told at once by the curious lines of 
glands running down the stem from the points of insertion of 
the leaves. Of course the flowers are quite different in the two 
cases. Moreover, the inflorescence of PA. saligna is peculiar.
