49 BOTANICAL INFORMATION. 
JaunERT et Spaca, Illustrationes Plantarum Orientalium, 
Vol. 1. Paris, Ato. 
The first volume of this charming work is now completed 
and it is in every respect worthy of the authors. It contains, 
besides the elaborate maps, one hundred beautifully executed 
figures of new or little known Oriental plants. We have, 
in the first volume of the present Journal, p. 147, detailed the 
motives which induced the noble author to undertake this 
important publication and in our subsequent volumes 
is given a brief notice of the contents of the Livraisons 
as far as Part 10; with the omission of only one part, 
which had not then come to our hands. We shall now 
mention the species figured in that portion as well as in 
the remainder of the volume. Tab. 83, Asperula sherar- 
doides, n. sp. t. 84. Cytisopsis, a new genus, C. dorycniifolia, 
n. sp. t. 85. This and the three following plates are devoted 
to some very remarkable forms of the genus Statice; the 
present one St. Arabica, n. sp. t. 86. St. Bovei, n. sp. t. 87. 
St. sisymbrifolia, Jaub. et Sp. (St. spicata, Hohen.), with 
leaves, as the name implies, resembling those of a Sisymbrium; — 
but with denser spikes of flowers, at first sight more like some 
Valeriana, than a Statice; t. 88. St. plantaginiflora, n. sp. 
(St. spicata, Willd.?), very nearly allied to the preceding; - 
t. 94. St. acerosa, Willd. (not Bieberst.), t. 95. St. lepturoides, — 
Jaub. et Sp. (St. acerosa, Hohen.), t. 96. Ononis Aucherü, — 
n. sp. t. 97. Aristolochia hirta, L. t. 98. A. Botte, n. sp. t.99. 
Arist. Aucherii, n. sp. t. 100. Arist. Billardieri, n. sp. 
We shall look anxiously for the rarities that are to appear 
in the second volume.
