The Genus, which has derived its name from Jaborosa, 
or Jaborohh, the Arabic name for the Manpracora, to 
which our plant is allied, was founded upon the present and 
another species, (J. runcinata,) by Jussieu, in the Genera 
Plantarum, from specimens collected by Commerson, at 
Buenos Ayres. These plants, I apprehend, however, were 
little, if at all, known to Botanists till many years after ; 
when the late Dr. Gizxres gathered them both in the same 
country, and added a third, which we had the pleasure of 
figuring and describing in the first volume of the Botanical 
Miscellany, and which he found in the Andes of Mendoza. 
_ The two original species have been again sent to us by Mr. 
_ 'Tweepre from the Pampas of Buenos Ayres, accompanied 
likewise by seeds, from which plants have been raised both 
at the Liverpool and Glasgow Botanic Gardens, and which,
