«949 REPORT ON THE PLANTS 
Anguria sinuata, sp. n., glabra v. presertim. ad petiolos pilosa, foliis 
cordato-ovatis sinuato-lobatis integrisque scabris, spicis masculis 
longe pedunculatis globoso-capitatis, floribus numerosis pedicellatis 
calycis tubo ovato villoso.— Planta alte scandens, ramulis angulatis, 
junioribus ad angulos pilosis, adultis glabris levibus. Folia semi- 
pedalia, basi late cordata, auriculis rotundatis, apice obtusa, margine 
obscure v. profundius sinuato-triloba, utrinque viridia et scabra, 
basi trinervia, nervis lateralibus bipartitis; petiolus pilosus, 1-14- 
pollicaris. Pedunculus semipedalis. Capitulum 14 poll. diametro ; 
flores rubri, dense conferti, mediantibus pedicellis 2-linearibus re- 
ceptaculo carnoso ovoideo affixi. Calycis tubus 4—5 lin. longus, 
ovoideus, superne constrictus; limbi lacinie 4 v. rarius 5, 2-3 lin. 
longæ, lineari-lanceolatze, acute. Petala linearia, laciniis calycinis 
dimidio breviora. Antherz anguste lineares, subsessiles.—A very 
distinct species, of which, however, there was but a single male 
specimen from the neighbourhood of Parà. 
Anguria cissoides, sp. n., caule glabro, foliis trisectis, segmentis petio- 
lulatis ovatis cuspidatis spinuloso-dentatis hirtellis, lateralibus dimi- 
diatis, pedunculis elongatis breviter racemosis, floribus paucis glabris 
v. pilosis, petalis calycis laciniis dimidio brevioribus. 
A climber of twenty feet, growing in bushy places near Para. It 
agrees in almost everything with Pceppig’s description of his 4. big- 
noniacea, but the leaves are sprinkled all over with scattered hairs, and 
the petals are much shorter, not longer than the calycine lobes. ‘There 
were but very few male specimens, and a single female one with im- 
-~ perfect flowers. The inflorescence was the same as in the males, but 
. the flowers appeared to have been more numerous and smaller. 
. There are three Visca, the determination of which we have been 
compelled to postpone. Among the Rudiacee are fine specimens of a 
plant distributed under the name of Faramea vaginata, which I had 
. referred to that genus on account of its close affinity to the Faramea 
. glandulosa of Peeppig. Since then, however, having had occasion, 
carefully to examine all the species of. Faramea I could procure, I have 
been obliged to exclude both these species, as well as one or two 
others, which all agree in the imbricately æstivated corolla with Ivora, 
but have the ovules erect from the base of the two cells of the ovary, 
as in Psychotria and Palicourea, thus showing that they belong to 
some genus distinct from all that are well known; but as I have not
