antheris flavis demum basi cordato-bilobis, apice longe apicu-

Tabernzmontana arborea Rose.—A symmetrical tree, 
twenty-five feet high with trunk twelve feet long: leaves ob- 
long to oblanceolate, three to eight inches long, abruptly 
acute or acuminate, tapering at base into a petiole (four to 
six lines long), shining above, paler beneath: flowers white, 
abundant in large compound corymbs: pedicels three to five 
lines long; bracts at base of flower none: calyx small; sepals 
oblong, obtuse one and one-half lines long: spreading 
scales four to five in the axil of each sepal: corolla tube 
slender, two to three lines long, narrower above, pubescent 
near the mouth; lobes oblong obtuse, five to six lines long: 
stamens inserted low in the tube, included: disk none; style 
short: follicles two, reflexed, compressed, oval, obtuse, two 
inches long, papillose-roughened.— The fruit in this species 
is much like 7. Donunell-Smithii, but in habit, inflorescence, 
color and size of corolla, etc., the plant is very different. 
This species is not a typical Zaderuemontana but would be- 
long to the genus PescAzera as the tribes were arranged by 
Miers. This latter genus, however, is not considered a valid 
one by Hemsley, nor by Durand. t differs from 7aé£ernue- 
montana, as Miers defines it, in the shape of the corolla tube, 
the attachment of the stamens, the length of the style, ab- 
sence of disk, papillose follicles and distinct ovaries—char- 
 acters which it has in common with 2escAzera, and which, if - 
they be constant, ought to constitute a good genus. (J. N.

1j inches broad, thin, oblong, tapering at base, abruptly long- 
acuminate, glabrous, entire, sessile or short-petioled: cymes
