SOCIETY ISLANDS. 



[Including Easter, Ducie's, Elizabeth, Pitcairn, and Gambier's Islands; those denominated " Coral Islands" at 

 page 1, of this Volume ; and Otaheite, or Tahiti. They were visited at the periods there stated.*] 



Ord. I. CRUCIFERiE. Juss. 

 1. Cardamine sarmentosa; foliis petiolatis glabris pinnatisectis, segmentis 5 ovatis inferne 

 dentatis infimis petiolulatis, caule subnudo basi flagellifero, siliquis patentibus. DC. — 

 " Forst. Fl. App. p. 92. n. 529." De Cand. Prodr. v. 1. p. 153. 



1. Lepidium piscidium; siliculis oblongo-obovatis (seu obovatis) emarginatis, stigmate 

 exserto, foliis ovali-oblongis extrorsum dentatis integerrimisve. DC. — " Forst. Prodr. n. 

 249." De Cand. Prodr. v. 1. p. 206. 



The pouch in our specimens is broader than that described by De Candolle, in this respect approaching 

 that of L. O- Waihiense, but the style is very conspicuous. 



Ord. II. CAPPARIDEiE. Juss. 



1. Gynandropsis/?eMta/%Z/a. De Cand. Prodr. v. I. p. 238.— Cleome pentaphylla. Bot. 

 Mag. t. 1681. 



1. Crateva religiosa; staminibus 20-28 toro annulari insertis petalorum longitudine, 

 bacca ovali, foliis lanceolato-ellipticis acutis. DC.—" Forst. Prodr. n. 203." De Cand. 

 Prodr. v. 1. p. 243. 



Hab. Gambier's Island. 



1. Capparis Sandwichiana ; inermis, foliis ellipticis glabriusculis, limbo petiolo vix triplo 

 longiore, pedicellis solitariis unifloris foliorum longitudine. De Cand. Prodr. v. I. p. 245. 



This appears scarcely different from the C. spinosa: nor does the C. Mariana seem to us deserving of 

 the rank of a species. 



Ord. III. MALVACEAE. Juss. 



1. Urena lobata. Linn.—De Cand. Prodr. v. 1. p. 441. Bot. Mag. t. 3043. 



1. Hibiscus Manihot. Linn.— Bot. Mag. t. 1702. De Cand. Prodr. v. 1. p. 458. 



2. Hibiscus rosa-sinensis. Linn.— Bot. Mag. t. 158. De Cand. Prodr. v. 1. p. 448. 



* A 8 many of the plants of these Islands appear common to the whole groupe, we have rarely thought it neon- 

 sary to mention the particular stations of the species.
