quill-shaped tube ; a germen originally 3-celled, but not so 
when mature ; large wregular shaped green seeds ; and other 
particulars, which, with the enumeration of species, will be 
found under the title Crinum Broussonetz in the next number. 
1 have seen no Brunsvigia except falcata in flower, and that 
mot since my attention has been particularly called to the defi- 
nition of the genus ; and therefore 1 can only refer to figures 
and descriptions ; but I apprehend that toxicaria, falcata, 
and coranica, will form the genus, distinguishable .by a 
cylindrical tube to the corolla, a simple. pointed stigma, 
irregularly shaped roundish green seeds, and leaves not decay- 
ing unless exposed to drought or cold: in every respect 
coming nearest to Crinum ; and that mudlteflora and Jose- 
phine (with probably ciliaris, Radula,marginata, and striata,) 
will unite with blanda and Belladonna in the genus, which 
from its affinity to some of the bulbs now called Brunsvigia, 
may be not improperly named Cosureta. 
~ © Copureta has the stigma at first simple, afterwards, when. 
perfect, 3-lobed or obsoletely triangular, fimbriated on the 
top or inside of the lobes: fimbria thereon crowded and 
slender. Filaments united near the base, and where united 
‘adhering to the inner lacinia and the midrib of the outer, so 
“as to form a tube inwardly cylindrical, but outwardly appearing 
funnel-shaped. Alternate filaments longer; the shortest 
attached to the outer lacinie. [The margin of the outer 
Jacinie in blanda and Belladonna divided quite to the germen, 
‘but perhaps not in all the species.] Germen 3-celled. Seeds 
“bursting the capsule, roundish, smooth, purpurascent where 
exposed to the light and air. [In Belladonna, blanda, and 
reticulata, pearl-coloured within the capsule, purpurascent 
where exposed. | Leaves bifarious, :
