102 4. Canthium ¢riacanthum, Nob. This is likewise a species 
which appears not to have been described. We give a description of 
it below.* 
Cremaspora Bocandeana, Nob. The genus Cremaspora, founded by 
Mr. Bentham on the Coffea hirsuta of G. Don, is remarkable for its 
undivided stigma, and, as its name imports, pendulous ovules, by 
which character it approaches Zertrea and Stenostomum, but the for- 
mer differs from it in having tetramerous flowers and the stigma of the 
latter is bifid. Our plant departs in several particulars from the de- 
‘scription of C. Africana, Benth.; we have not, therefore, ventured to 
unite them, but give below its diagnosis apart, and a detailed de- 
seription.T 
Pavetta syringoides, Nob. This plant appears to resemble P. geni- 
pefolia, Schum. et Thonn., but the nature of its inflorescence seems 
* C. ramis validis, spinis ternatis armatis, ramulis pubescentibus, stipulis lineari- 
bus; foliis lanceolato-ovatis ovatisque, basi rotundatis, mollibus, venis puberulis ; 
calycis laciniis latis, ovatis, reversis, corolla tubulosa, intus sub medio paleacea ; stylo 
breviter exserto, stigmate glaberrimo. Fruter? vel arbuscula? Rami validi, nigres- 
centes, spinis ternis atris armati, ramuli subteretes, apice pilis rufis pubescentes. Szi- 
pule e basi lata connate, lineares, acute, petiolo breviores vel subzequales, deciduze. 
Petiolus pubescens, 3 lin. longus. Folia ovata vel lanceolato-ovata, acuta, basi rotun- 
data vel subattenuata, 2-3 poll. longa, 2 poll. lata, utrinque mollissima sed ad venas 
tantum leviter puberula, supra saturate viridia, subtus pallida, reticulato-venosa. 
Cyme ad ramulorum nodos aphylle, divaricato-dichotome, pedunculis brevibus mox 
divergentibus ancipitibus, puberulis, flore in dichotomiis solitario, in superioribus sepe 
extra-axillari, bracteis ovatis squamosis. Calyx brevis, pubescens, tubo globosulo, 
laciniis latis obtusis reversis, tubo longioribus. Corolla 2 liu. circiter longa, subpu- 
cens, laciniis lanceolatis acutis reversis sestivatione valvatis, tubo lato cylindraceo 
basi vix ventricoso duplo longioribus, intus sub medio annulo paleaceo cineto paleis 
latis deflexis. Stamina 5, basi laciniarum inserta, brevissima, antheris ovatis, acutis, 
sacculis basi obtusis, vix exsertis. S/y/us exsertus, lacinias corolle longitudine vix 
excedens. Stigma galeriforme, apice obtusiusculum, obscure 2-lobum.  Oraria 2- 
locularia, loculis 1-ovulatis, ovulis alte suspensis, fere pendulis. Fructus (junior) glo- 
boso-didymus vel ovatus, calycis laciniis coronatis, z
