ApIANTHUM,under which name he publifhed itin his Flora Indica. 
From the Profeflor it was adopted by Linn us, and inferted 
in the thirteenth edition of his Syftema Vegetabilium, by 
Murray. - The diftovery of the real genus of this plant was 
made by the late Jonas Drvanper, Efg. who identified 
Burmann’s plant with a fpecimen brought from the fouth-weft 
coaft of New-Holland, by Mr, Men Z1ES, and afcertained it to 
be a true Mrmosay belonging to the divifion, fince feparated 
by Wittpenow, under the name of Acacia. This plant 
is a native of the fouth-weft coaft of New-Holland, not of 
North-America, as at firff ftated in the Annals of Botany, but 
corrected in the errata. Whether Mr. Kurinnorr really 
colleéted his {pecimen in Java, as appears from BurmMann’s 
account, is uncertain,
