14 BOTANY OF THE VOYAGE OF THE SULPHUR. 
35. Desmanruus virgatus, Willd.—DC. Prod. ii. p. 444.—Bay of Magdalena. 
This is probably the Northern limit on the Pacific side of this common 
South American plant, which extends also into the Southern States of the North 
American Union, and is found not uncommonly in tropical Asia, but perhaps not 
originally indigenous to the Old World. 
36. Catuianpra californica, sp. n., (Plate XI.) ramulis petiolisque appresse pilosis demum 
glabratis, stipulis lanceolato-subulatis rigidis, foliis eglandulosis, pinnis 2-4-jugis, foliolis 8-15-jugis 
oblongis obtusiusculis utrinque appresse pilosis demum coriaceis nitidis, pedunculis tenuibus petiolo 
paullo longioribus, calycibus corolla pubescente multoties brevioribus.— Bay of Magdalena. 
Species C. eriophylle et C. Cumingii affinis, sed ab utraque distincta. Frutex videtur, rigide ramosissimus, 
ramulis teretibus. Pubes appressa, brevis, in partibus junioribus canescens, demum rara. Stipulze persistentes, 
lineam longee, interdum subpungentes. Petioli communes tenues, 6-12 lin. longi, partiales paullo longiores. 
Foliola in ramulis junioribus 2 lin. longa, in ramis fere 3 lin. longa, demum rigida, Flores fere C. Cumingii. 
Plate XI. fig. 1. flower; fig. 2. stamens; fig. 3. anther; fig. 4. pollen mass; fig. 5. style, all 
magnified. 
The beautiful genus Calliandra, consisting of a few of Willdenow’s Acucie 
and Ing@, with a considerable number of species lately discovered, is almost 
exclusively South American, a very few species only being found in the West 
Indies or Mexico, and none in the United States. The Californian one now 
described is thus the most northern species yet discovered.
