raiso, Cuming, (N. 511.); Bridges, 1832, (N: 427.) ; 
Cordillera of Chili, Cuming (N. 322.)— The upper 
part of the stems, racemes, and calyces, abounds in glan- 
dular viscid hairs. The whole plant has a purplish 
hue. In character this approaches too closely to the 
last species ; yet their habit is so very different, that we 
can scarcely make them varieties.

1832, (N. 423); Cuming, (N. '710.)—Specimens, more 
perfect than what we formerly possessed, induce us now 
to refer our C. tenella to this species. The calyx in 
‘both varieties is sometimes nearly glabrous, but more 
often, particularly in the wild plant, furnished with 
broadish flat obtuse white hairs. e un of the 
=- stamens is variable.

1832, (N. 496.)— This approaches nearer to the short 
character given by Ruiz and Pavon than any other 
Chilian plant with which we are acquainted, unless in- 
deed it be the last species, but these authors can pany 
be supposed to overlook the triangular sepals. .
