The species of Kleinia hitherto figured in this work are 
S. (Kleima) Anteuphorbium (Tab. 6099) supposed at the 
date of publication to be 8. African, but now known to be 
a native of Cape Juby in N.-W. Africa, it has pale yellow 
flowers ; S. (Kleinia) pteronewra (Tab. 5945) from Morocco, 
with many white flowers, and S.( Kleinia) fulgens (Tab. 5590) 
of Natal, the most beautiful of all known species, from the 
vivid red of its flower heads. It is to the latter that 
S. Galpini is most nearly allied, differing in the entire 
narrower leaves, involucrate, much larger heads and colour 
of the flowers. | 
S. (Kleinia) Galpini was raised at the Royal Gardens 
from seeds sent by E. E. Galpin, Esq., of Barbertown in 
the Transvaal Republic, in May, 1890, and which were 
collected on a cliff at the summit of Saddleback Mountain, 
altitude five thousand feet. The plant raised flowered — 
in the Succulent House in October, 1891, and the stems 
died with the flowers.—J. D. H
