It was our privilege to publish a handsome new Browallia in 
a recent volume, at Tab. 4339 of this work, (B. speciosa) re- 
markable for the large and handsome blue flowers. We have 
now the satisfaction of giving another species of the genus, only 
recently described in De Candolle by Mr. Bentham, no less re- 
markable from the yellow colour of its rather large inflorescence. 
It is a native of New Grenada, between Mivir and Naranfus, 
whence it has been sent (together with seeds from which our 
plants were raised) by Dr. Jameson, and from Loxa by Mr. Hart- 
weg (n. 818 of his collection). The species is a very distinct one. 
Our drawing was made from a plant which flowered in the 
ereenhouse at Druid’s Stoke, near Bristol, the beautiful residence 
of Hector Munro, Esq., in June 1851, and where alone, so far 
as we know, the flowers have been produced. 
Dzscr. An erect, rather straggling shru}, 4—6 feet high; the 
branches obscurely angular, downy. Leaves alternate, almost 
exactly ovate, on very short petioles, very obtuse, slightly downy, 
entire, penniveined, the veins united by transverse sunken vein- 
lets, giving a wrinkled appearance to the upper surface of the 
leaf, which is moreover glossy. Panicle corymbose, terminal, brac- 
teated ; dracteas resembling small leaves. Pedicels shorter than
