lucido-punctatis reticulato-venosis glabris, ramulis pu- 
bescentibus, fructu pyriformi subrotundo scabro, seg- 
mentis calycinis 4.—M. Luma, Bertero in Ann. Sc. 
v. 21. p. 347.—Juan Fernandez, Dr. Scouler; Mr. 
Douglas.—Our specimens are without flower, so that 
we must leave a more complete analysis to the French 
Botanists who are describing Bertero’s acquisitions. 
It cannot be the M. Luma of Sprengel, nor of Molina. 
(1.) Psidium? amygdalinum, (Hook. et Arn.); foliis 
junioribus oppositis lanceolatis breviter petiolatis cano- 
pubescentibus, pedunculis brevibus axillaribus fascicu- 
latis unifloris calycibusque cano-tomentosis, ramis gla- 
bris.—Corientes, Baird.—The old leaves appear to be 
deciduous, at least there are none on our specimens, and 
the flowers have therefore the appearance of coming out 
before the foliage; so that, had it not been for the inferior 
germen, we should have referred this plant to the tribe 
Amygdalee among the Rosacee.
