This interesting species is so unlike in general appearance those that precede it in 

 this genus, that it was with some surprise I found, upon an analysis of an unopened 

 flower, that it corresponded Avith them in the nnmber, structure, and arrangement of 

 the stamens, and in the external characters of the ovary and style. There arc onJy 

 two indifferent specimens in the herbarium, and one of these without flowers, col- 

 lected hy Mr. Moon many years ago, so that I have-not maternds for such a critical 

 examination of the plant as would he desirable. *
