490 FLORA NIGRITIANA. 
2. Leonotis pallida, Benth. in DC. Prod. 12. p. 535.— Cape 
Palmas, Vogel; Senegal to Benin ; Nubia and Abyssinia. 
LXXXIV. PLUMBAGINEX. 
l. Plumbago Zeylanica, Linn.— Boiss. in DC. Prod. 12. p. 
692.—Senegal to Benin and Fernando Po, Vogel, Don and 
others : a common species in Tropical Asia and Africa. 
LXXXV. PHYTOLACCEÆ. 
I find no specimens in the collections before me belonging 
to this Order, but the following seven species are recorded as 
having been found in West Tropical Africa: Mohlana Gui- 
neensis, Mog., from Guinea; Semonvillea pterocarpa, Gay, 
Senegal ; Li 7 , Fenzl, Senegal, Nubia and South 
Africa; L. linifolium, Fenzl, Senegal and South Africa ; Gisekia 
linearifolia, Schum. et Thonn., Guinea; G. pharnaceoides, 
Linn., Senegal and Guinea, and over nearly all Africa and East 
India, and G. congesta, Moq., from Senegal. 
LXXXVI. CurwNoronpirx.* 
1. Chenopodium album, Linn.—Mog. in DC. Prod. 2. 13. p. 70. 
—St. Thomas, Don. 
This is stated by Don to be a shrub 10 feet high ; but it is a 
very common mistake among collectors to describe hard- 
stemmed, tall-growing annuals as shrubs; and in every other 
respect the specimens agree perfectly with the universally dif- 
fused C. album. 
2. Chenopodium ambrosioides, Linn.—Mog. in DC. Prod. 13. 
2. p. 70.—St. Thomas, Don. 
This is another weed diffused over a great portion of the 
globe, as well as C. murale, Linn., which is also found m 
Senegal. 
* We know of no adequate reason for changing the name of this 
Order to that of Salsolacee, as now first proposed by Moquin.
