“A glabrous shrub. Leaves 6-8 lines long, densely set, sparse, recurvo-patent, 
flat, narrow, linear, tapering to each end, acute, muticous, slightly crenulate with mar- 
ginal pellucid dots, the younger sometimes hair-tipped, dull green above, much paler 
th, with two rows of minute dots. Petioles a line long, pale, appressed, not 
glandular at base. Flowers unknown.”—No doubt this is either a variety of A. cere- 
olia, or of some allied species. It is altogether a dubious species ; for in Herb, Be- 
Tol,, the specimen preserved under the name “‘reflexa,” belongs to A. apiculata.
