Nov. Holl. 517. : 
A New-Holland genus, established by Mr. Rozert Brown, 
belonging to his natural order of myoporine. It has, he 
observes, the nearest affinity with Borria, which differs in ~ 
having the upper-lip of the corolla emarginate, a trifid lower- 
lip, and a two-lobed stigma. Srenocuitus glaber has the 
upper-lip divided into four longish teeth, the under-lip narrow, 
reflexed, and quite entire. Stamens and siyle longer than 
sthe corolla and cernuous. This very rare shrub was com~- 
municated by Mr. Witiiam Kent, of Clapton, in June last. — 
Native of the South Coast of New-Holland.
