Has. Madagascar. (Willdenow.) Dr. Lyall, * n. 255, and 
269.”—In one specimen in our possession, communicated by 
Professor Mertens from the Herbarium of Jussieu, the stipules 
are ovato-lanceolate; whilst in several others, communicated 
by Dr. Lyall, they are much smaller and lanceolato-subulate.

Has. Demerara. Mr. Parker.—One of the most elegant 
and distinct of this groupe, and known to us only as an 
inhabitant of Guiana, whence it has been sent to us by our 
friend, Mr. Parker. It is very possible that it may have been 
confounded, at least by Lamarck, with the L. pectinatum ; for 
he mentions a variety from the warmer parts of South 
America; but it assuredly does not agree with the species 
under that name, as first described by Willdenow.
