The specimen in the Linnean Herbarium, which forms the type of the Mantissa, 

 and is labelled "7. paniculatii/n*' by Linnaeus, was probably collected by 

 Tulbagh ; it is identical with the plant named T. tenue by Eernhardi. The 

 specimen seen by Sonder at Stockholm is an entirely different plant and agrees in 

 part with the plants labelled T. strictum hy Thunberg in the Upsala Herbarium. 

 T. dehlJe, Spreng., appears to be only a straggling form of T, paniculatum, Linn., 

 as suggested by Sonder. 



50. T. euphrasioides (A. DC. Esp. Nouv. Thes. 8) ; a low slender

 terete, glabrous ; branches dichotomously forked, spreading or 

 ascending ; leaves few and scattered, the lower about 4 lin. long, 

 linear, terete, the upper subulate-lanceolate, acute, at first 

 adpressed to the stem, at length spreading or recurved, about 1 lin. 

 ^^^03 glabrous ; flowers solitary and sessile at the apex of the

 forming an involucre, acutely acuminate from an ovate or lanceo-

 perianth cylindric, l|^lin. long, with no external glands ; segments 

 linear-lanceolate, subacute, f lin. long, with a dense apical beard ; 

 anthers included in the perianth-tube, ^ lin. long ; style |- lin. long, 

 reaching to the middle of the anthers; fruits broadly ellipsoid,
