for S. pentandra. In Meyer's Zwei Pf, Documente, 219, another locality, ¢, is 
referred to for S, pentandra, 
_ The localities according to the latter publication should be as follows and not as 
in Meyer's Comm. : 
(a) Winterveld, bei Limoenfontein und Groot Tafelberg, und Nieuweveld, 
zwischen Brakrivier und Uitvlugt. 
(5) Wonderheuvel. 
(¢) Garip, Sandhiigel am rechten Ufer des Flusses bei Verleptpram. 
(d) Zuurebergen. 
(e ) Zwischen Gekau und Basche. 
The specimen in the Berlin Herbarium labelled Seba pentandra, E. M. 6 
Drege, has been given the wrong locality ; the 6 has been read e and the locality 
(inter Gekau et Basche) put on the label, it should be Wonderheuvel. 
The type specimen of S. gariepina, Gilg in Meyer’s Herb. at Liibeck, exactly 
equals the Kew specimen S. pentandra, E. Meyer, a. The Liibeck specimen is 
from Garip. 
The Liibeck specimen from ‘‘ Gekau und Basche, no. 4920” agrees with the Berlin 
specimen bearing the distribution label ‘‘S. pentandra, E. M. b Drége,” which 
however is further labelled ‘‘Gekau et Basche,” and these agree with the Kew 
specimen, Bowker, Somerset, which also equals the above.
