The greatest confusion has taken place among botanists re- 
specting Gnipra pinifolia, radiata and imberbis. WeEnpLAND 
has described and figured the last mentioned under the name 
of pinifolia, and our plant under that of radiata. The two first 
are probably the same species. Linnaus seems to have de- 
scribed pinifolia a second time in the Mantissa, under the name 
of radiata ; and in the Supplement, the former name occurs 
again with a new character, which has certainly nothing to 
do with our plant. This last is given in Martyn’s edition of 
Miller’s Dictionary, under the name of Gnin1a Sparmanni ; 
and itis undoubtedly quite distinct from pintfolia. G. imberbis
