(6.) floribus albis. : 
The usual, or purple-flowered state of this plant has 
been already figured and described, both in the Botanical 
Magazine and Register. It remains for us to give a repre- 
sentation of the white-flowered variety of this plant, which 
we believe is yet uncommon in the stoves of this country, 
though a pale-purple-blossomed kind is not unfrequent. 
* So named by L’HEéRiTIER, in honour of Dr. BENJAMIN PETER 
phate ro of Colmar, who had published on Marrynia and some allied 
enera.
