flowers, but appears to belong to this species, —Guayaquil. 
47, ABUTILON graveolens, Wight et Arn. Prod. Fl. Penins. Ind. Or. 1. p- 56.—Panama to 
Guayaquil.—These specimens do not in the slightest degree differ from East Indian ones.

52. Stipa divergens, sp. n., fruticosa, ramis tomentosis, foliis amplis late cordato-ovatis 
acuminatis integerrimis supra minute puberulis subtus cano-tomentosis, panicula ampla laxa 
subnuda, carpellis quinque, rostris elongatis divergentibus.—Guayaquil. 
Frutex parva, ramis teretibus divaricatis. Folia longiuscule petiolata, majora 4-6 poll. longa, ramealia 
seepe multo minora, floralia sessilia, infima bipollicaria, suprema ad bracteas minutas reducta, Pedicelli filiformes, 
elongati. Calyces parvi, laciniis latis obtusis. Petala calyce duplo longiora. Cocci maturitate distincti, sub- 
indehiscentes, angulati, angulo interno acuto, externo in rostrum elongatum incurvum bipartibilem producto, 
angulis lateralibus obtusis. 
This shrub has very much the habit of the Wissadule, especially of W. nudi- 
Jlora, but the fruit is that of a true Sida. It was also gathered by Hartweg in the 
same locality. 
53. Sta paniculata, Linn.—DC. Prod. 1. p.465.—Payta and Guayaquil. 
54. Sra betonicefolia, Balb —DC. Prod. 1. p. 463.—Gulf of Fonseca. 
55. Sma Dombeyana, DC. Prod. 1. p. 463.—Folia juniora utrinque pilosa, adulta fere glabra.— 
Isle of Puna, near Guayaquil.—Very nearly allied to S. humilis. 
56. Supa glanduligera, sp. n., foliis petiolatis late cordato-ovatis acuminatis dentatis supra minute 
stellato-puberulis subtus ramulisque tenuiter canescenti-tomentellis, panicula terminali, floribus 
breviter pedicellatis confertis, calycibus glanduloso-hirtis, carpellis 5 muticis puberulis,—S. dumosa, 
Hook. et Arn. Bot. Beech. p. 4 2. non Swartz.—Realejo. 
Caules elati videntur, teretes, uti folia juniora necnon adultiorum pagina inferior tomento va7s pallido et 
forte viscidulo vestiti. Petioli 2-3-pollicares, Folia petiolo longiora, basi 5-7-nervia et late rene cor- 
data, supra viridia pilis minutis stellatis conspersa. Panicula pyramidata, terminalis, aphylla, floribus —- 
ramos in cymas breves dispositis. Pedicelli ultimi calycibus breviores, bracteis linearibus brevibus eubtensi, uti 
rami paniculze, bracteze et calyces pube stellata pilis rigidulis et glandulis stipitatis vestiti. Calyces fructiferi 
8 lin. longi, laciniis latis acute acuminatis. Corolla calyce paullo longior. Carpella S. dumose. 
This plant was considered by the authors of the Botany of Beechey’s Voyage 
as the same as Swartz’s S. dumosa from Jamaica, but it appears to me to be more 
downy, the inflorescence different, and the calyxes much larger, which, with the 
glands and stiff hairs which cover them, give to the panicle something of the 
appearance of that of some Rubi.
