Owing to the type specimen of Linnncns' T. pnniculatum not ha\ing been 

 •examined by Thuiiberg or Sonder, the plants which have passed under this name 

 ill every publication since the ''Mantissa'* are not the true 'paiikulatum of 

 Linneeus, which is identical with T. temte, Bernh. Lamarck's; name T. virgatum 

 has been restored for the Bpecies so long known as T. panicttlatian. It is 

 'Unfortunate that Sonder in taking up T. virgatum included specimens referred hv 

 De Candolle to T, juucffoUum. 2\ virgatum embraces a wide range of fonns 

 which merge into one another, and it has not been found possible to keep up 

 T, dregeanum, A.DC.j as a distinct species.
