be the pallcns of fome of the authors cited to that we have 

 given in No. 1420 ; which is after all a mere capful iferous 

 variety of carinatam. To moft of the Floras, we arc perfuauVd 

 oleraceum and carinatum as they occurred with a capfuli- 

 ferous or with a bulbiferous inflorcfcencc, have, when in the 

 firft mentioned date, furnifhed likewife paniculattim and pallcns. 

 We have already, in No. 1420, dated the diltinctions between 

 our prefent fpecies, pallens and flavum. From oleraceum it 

 differs, by having the filaments fhortly connate at their bafe 

 among themfelves, and with the corolla. Iacouin'j fpecimen 

 of panic ulatum from Auftria, in the Bankfian Herbarium, has 

 a bulbiferous umbel and is oleraceum. The bloom of the 

 prefent plant had a flight degree of fragrance, was white with 

 a flight fuffufion of purple or rofe-colour, and marked with green 

 down the backs of the fegments. It is evidently the paniculatnm 

 of Bieberstein, according to his own fpecimens. Our 

 drawing was made from a plant that flowered this fummer in 

 Mr. Haworth's collection, and had been received from the 

 Cambridge Botanic Garden, where it was fuppofed to have 

 come originally from Siberia. Native of the Crimea, and 

 probably of various parts of the South of Europe. We believe 

 it to be the pallcns of Redoute ; but are certain it is not his 

 paniculaium, which we take to be a capfuliferous oleraceum. G. 



NOTE. 



No. 1143, pag. alt. Allium caucafcum. We find that 



M. von Bieberstein, in a recent work, dropping the name of 



caucaftum attached to this plant in his Herbarium, has con- 



fidered it as a purple variety of the faxatile with white 



flowers of a former one ; and this again as diftiuB. from 



jhlleriamim (for which it had been taken by Georgi in Nacblr, 



fitrSe/cbr. rufs. reiebs. 267} in having a'fubulatc fpathc, one 



valve of which is longer than the umbel. So that the following 



fynonyms mould be added to thole given in the above cited 



page.

 The globofum of the fame author, as which taueaftnm is given 

 in Redoute's Liliacees, has a fpathe ten times longer than 

 the umbel, and ftamens twice the length of the corolla ; and can 

 neither be the plant given by Redoute, nor ffbarocepbalon 

 as we guefled it to be. G.
