The beautiful Genus of Lupine, of which the greater 
number of species, hitherto enumerated in our universal 
Floras, are natives either of the South of Europe or of the 
Andes of Peru, has been greatly increased by the disco- 
veries of Mr. Dovexas on the north-west coast of America,

as well as in California. Thus the Genus may be consid- 
ered to have its maximum on the western side of eres
