diftinft, inferted in the receptacle ; anthers yellow. Ovarium 

 ovate: ftyle longer than ftamens; itigma fimple. Sweet- 

 fcented, efpecially after fun-fet. 



Retzius has diftinguifhed four fpecies of Sophora with 

 fimple leaves, all of which appear to have been confounded 

 in one by Linnaeus in the Species Plantarum. Our plant is 

 undoubtedly that to which he exclufively applies the name 

 lifiora. 



Whether Sophora biflora of Hort. Kew. be the fame 

 with our plant appears extremely doubtful, as the figure of 

 Plukenet, there quoted, certainly does not belong to it. It 

 is a native of the Cape, and requires the fhelter of a green- 

 fcoufe. 



Our drawing was made from a plant fent us by Mr. Lob- 

 diges at Hackney laft year. Flowers in June.
