known artist, whose numerous drawings in many of the best botanical 
works of England, are not less admirable for scientific accuracy, than 
for artistic skill and elegance. The solitary axillary flowers approach 
this curious plant much more to Persoomia and some Hakeas, and 
chiefly to Strangea, than to any Grevillea, with which genus, however; 
it agrees in the stigma and hypogynous gland, and moreover the base 
of the calyx appears to be quite as in the section Plagiopoda. Unfor- 
tunately our specimens have all open and emptied follicles, and we 
are therefore unable to ascertain those characters on which the genus 
must essentially depend. It is a spreading shrub, 3-4 feet high. The 
leaves are 3-6, and the fruits 1-2 inches long, the latter rugulose, and 
with five or six deep furrows, separated by blunt longitudinal ribs. 
The pistil is 8-9 lines long, and the ovary shorter than its stalk, 
which adheres the whole length to the base of the deciduous calyx. 
32. Grevillea (Calothyrsus) insignis, Kippist in litt.; glauco-pruinosa, 
ramulis teretibus glaberrimis, foliis elliptico-oblongis remote smuato- 
dentatis marginatis nervosis glabris basi truncatis, dentibus spinosis, 
racemis terminalibus subramosis breve pedunculatis apicifloris, calyce 
glabro, stylo vix exserto complanato basi ovarioque villoso, stigmate 
laterali orbiculari.— Drummond, coll. v. Suppl. n. 12. 
Leaves almost like those of the common Holly, but glaucous, 2-3 
inches long. Flowers fine, purple, the limbus recurved, villous inside 
towards the base. Hypogynous gland obsolete. | 
33. Grevillea (Calothyrsus) Pinaster, Nob. ; ramulis teretibus, novellis 
fulvo-sericeis, foliis filiformi-linearibus integerrimis mucronulatis gla- 
bris vix rigidis subtus bisulcis marginibus arcte revolutis, racemis 
lateralibus simplicibus patulis basifloris, calyce inflexo pedicello lon- 
giore extus pistilloque glabro intus puberulo, stylo ealycem duplo 
superante, stigmate oblique truneato.— Drummond, coll. vi. n. 182.— 
Affinis G. Lemanniane, sed distincta foliis angustioribus minus rigi- 
dis, marginibus revolutis obtusis (nec acute refractis), floribus gla- 
bris, etc. 
I take this opportunity of observing that the plant I formerly took 
- for G. concinna, R. Br. (Pl. Preiss. i. p. 545), is essentially distinct from 
that species, having the margins of the leaves acutely refracted, etc., 
aud forms a new species, G. coccinea, Nob.

foliis petiolatis vix rigidulis pinnatis, laciniis anguste linearibus elon-
