NOTE. 



No. 1089. Inftead of " Amaryllis humilis (|3)." read 

 " Amaryllis cokusca." Upon comparing the two plants* 

 this Cummer, we are convinced that the above fhould have 

 been given as a diftincl fpecies from the humilis of No. 726. 

 Befides the difference in the direction, fize, and colour of the 

 corolla, as well as convolution of its fegments, corufca is 

 diltinguifhable by ftamens which are nearly upright and about a 

 fourth longer than the corolla, inftead of being horizontal and 

 about as much fhorter than the corolla, as in humilis. The 

 fubjoined characters will, we think, diftinguifh the following 

 clofely allied fpecies. 



Umbella multifiora ; flos fexpartitus, recttrvofubrotatus. 



corufca ; fupra No. 1089. Foliis paucis (4 ?) bifariis lineari- 

 ligulatis convoluto-canaliculatis ; pedicellis fpatha bivalvi 

 longioribus ; corolla eretla, laciniis fubaequalibus lanceolato- 

 ligulatis ungue breviflimo, fuperne undulatis, inferioribus 

 utrinque duas fummas verfus obliquatis, imis binis latius dif- 

 cretis ; ftaminibus obfolete aflurgentibus parum insequalibus 

 corolla una quarta longioribus, imze fiflurae appoints ; ftigmati- 

 bus 3, brevibus replicatis. G. 

 A. humilis. (0.) Hort. Ktw. ed. 2. 2. 229. 



humilis ; fupra No. 726. Corollae laciniis lineari-lanceolatis 

 fpathulato-convolutis undulatis, lateralibus utrinque in par 

 medium fummum obliquantibus, imis binis divaricatiflimis ; 

 ftaminibus declinato-aflurgentibus corolla brevioribus, divari* 

 cationis fpatio interpofitis. G. 



undulata ; fupra No. 369. Corolla laciniis lateralibus duabus 

 utrinque mediam ftimmam verfus obliquantibus, ima media 

 ftaminibus flore brevioribus fubtenfa. G. 



venujla ; fupra No. 1090. Corolla regulari ; ftaminibus erefto- 

 fafciculatis iftam exlupernntibus. G. 



This laft can only be feparated from farnienfis of No. 244* 

 by the fometimes inconftant character of the leaves preceding, 

 and not fucceeding the inflorefcence ; they have been confe- 

 quently united in the laft edition of the Hortus Kewenfts a? 

 varieties. G.
