the Decandrous Papilionaceous Plants of Nerv Holland. 2.53 



2. C. trilobum, folio suboppositis hastato-trilobis intcgris dcnta- 

 tisve spinosis, racemis axillaribus folio brevioribus. " 

 Pultenaea ilicifolia. Andr. Repos. t. 320. 



This species, brought from Port Jackson, New South Wales, 

 is evidently nearly akin to the preceding, both in characters and 

 habit. The leaves indeed are generally, but not very strictly, 

 opposite, nor can any generic difference be presumed from such 

 a circumstance in a New Holland plant. The spinous stipulas 

 of a Chorozema can never be mistaken, nor can any genus be 

 more natural. The leaves of all the known species are simple, 

 and reticulated with numerous veins, being on the whole broader 

 than those of any other genus of this family. 



3. C. scandens, foliis suboppositis ellipticis indivisis, racemis tei*- 

 minalibus elongatis, calyce pilosiusculo. 



The stem is twining; its branches terminated by loose pendu- 

 lous bunches of yellow flowers, variegated with red, whose ca- 

 lyx is slightly besprinkled with short close-pressed hairs. The 

 leaves are, as in the last, not constantly nor strictly opposite ; 

 they are smooth above, and nearly so beneath ; their margin 

 wavy and somewhat crenate. I received specimens of this spe- 

 cies from Dr. White at Port Jackson, but have never seen it in 

 any garden, nor is it, I believe, any where figured. 



*4. C. sericeum, foliis subalternis ellipticis, racemis axillaribus 

 longitudine foliorum, calyce sericeo, vexillo angustato. 



Gathered at King George's Sound by Mr. Menzies. The 

 twining stem is like the last, but the leaves are more decidedly 

 alternate, except at the extremities of some short lateral branches: 

 they are also rather more coriaceous and wavy, and more silky 

 at the back. The flowers are widely different, thrice as large,
