ON THE HUON PINE, &c. 141 
bourhood of Rio de Janeiro, and is more abundant in the 
province of St. Paul's (as I was informed in that country). It 
is not improbable that the species, stated to have been found 
in New Caledonia by Cook, may prove distinct from any of 
the above. 
II. Dammara, Lam. 1. D. australis, Lamb. the Kaudi, 
Cowdie, or Kauri Pine of New Zealand, grows on the 
mountainous regions in the Northern Island of that group. 
Mr. Hinds, in his description of the vegetation of the Fejee 
Islands, mentions a species said to exist there. (vide Lond. 
Journ. Bot. v. 1, p. 671.) 
? Il. Juniperus, L. 1.J. uvifera, is described by Don as a 
native of Cape Horn; this, however, must be considered 
a very doubtful species. A second is mentioned by Mirbel, 
J. Capensis, Lam. 
IV. Tausa, L. This genus, in the Southern Hemisphere, 
belongs almost exclusively to South America. 1. T. Chilensis, 
Hook, (T. cuneata, Dombey mss.? T. Andina, Poeppig,) grows 
on the mountains of S. Chili, Valdivia, &c. | 2. T. tetragona, 
Hook. is the famous “ Alerse" of Chili and of the Island of 
Chiloe* 4. T. Doniana, Hook. is a native of the northern 
island of New Zealand. 
? V. Cupressus, L. 1. C. Africana, Mill. mentioned also 
by Mirbel, is probably a species of the following genus. 
VI. PaenvLEPis, Brongn. Three species are enumerated 
by Brongniart, who founded this genus.t 1. P. Commersoni, 
from Mauritius. 2. P. cupressoides,and 3. P. juniper ides, — 
both from the Cape; the latter is doubtful, and perhaps not  — 
distinct from the former. Besides these there is another 
Cape plant in the Hookerian Herbarium, named Cal- 
litris stricta, Schlect. mss. (Drège) ; but as the scales of this 
genus vary much in form with age, I could not pronounce 
the imperfect specimens distinct. Dr. Wallich has sent
