This, if I am correct in referring it to the genus Afropa, is 
perhaps the only species that inhabits cold mountain-districts : 
|t 1s very distinct from every hitherto described one, being 
remarkable for its glandular and apparently viscid leaves - 
and branches, for the great length of the tube of the corolla, 
and for its 5-partite calyx.

serratis, pedunculis solitariis vel binis axillaribus unifloris.

Of the genus of this I am doubtful. In habit, it ill accords 
with the few species of Witheringia with which I am acquainted. 
The stems are twigey, glabrous, and, as well as the long nar- 
row-lanceolate leaves, much resemble some Willow or Lycium. 
The flowers are scarcely so large as those of Solanum Dulca- 
mara, The calyx is deeply 5-cleft, with Ianceolato-subulate - 
Segments, The corolla rotate. Stamens 5, spreading: anthers 
Opening longitudinally. Germen globose, 2-celled, many- 
Seeded, with the seeds arranged upon receptacles attached to 
the dissepiment: style short: stigma capitate, furrowed.

solummodo tomentosis, racemis terminalibus subumbel- 
latis, floribus (fructuque) nutantibus, calycis glabri lobis 5
