of the H abitats of the three Species of Calaguala, their Collec- 
- tion, and Exportation. 
The situations nist: Siveuruble to the xgpetd tien of the first 
or genuine species of Calaguala, are the bills, punas, or wilds, 
and places of cold temperature adjacent to the Cordilleras of — 
the Andes, or, as we may call them, the Alps of Peru, where 
_ the cold prevails throughout the year, especially by night, though 
the snow never settles or congeals on them. ‘This species ge- 
nerally grows in the clefts and sides of the rocks, or upon 
them if they are covered with a thin stratum of earth, in 
quarries, and gravelly, sandy, or clayey places, in which occur 
a very few diminutive plants of other genera, and where the 
showers, though generally frequent, do not collect, on account 
of the declivity and the rocky nature of the ground. It grows 
spontaneously and very abundantly in many parts of the pro- 
vinces of Huarocheri, Caxatambo, Tarma, Canta, Xauxa, Huan- 
ave ica, Huamanga, Cuzco, Muanuco, Huamalies, Huaylas, 
axamarca, Caxamarquilla, and many others situated among 
the Cordilleras and mountains of the pre Bee to Bae 
kingdom of Pera, as well as those of Buenos Ayres and 
taFe, The root of this Calaguala is: gather 
small quantities, in several of these provinces 
OV hom Wivesice it is 
taken down to the ports of Rp Payt, and. yar and 
thence exported to Cadiz. — 
The second species of Ciuilnydiale; kdivasii m Peru, as we » have 
already observed, by the name of Puntu-puntu, and in some pro- 
vinees by that of Lengua de Ciervo (Deer's tongue), grows near
