be as correct as possible, that he has just communicated to 

 us some alterations that have suggested themselves to him 

 and Mr. C. C. Babington since the Fasciculus was pub-

 4th. R. sylvaticus (not the very round-leaved apiculate speci-

 but the other, which on the same authority is a doubtful 

 plant. 

 5th. R. dumetorum — nemorosus, [Hayne (the larger species ;) 



alter to fusco-ater of Babington. 

 6th. H. carpinifolius ; add a (?).

 monument to his memory, in the small island in the lower 

 Botanic Garden, at Sydney. This has been done ; and Cap-
