lanceolatis exterioribus reflexo-patentibus, pappo multipaleaceo. — Nicoya, Gulf of Fonseca, 
Panama. : 
Folia quam in L. latifolia tenuiora, minus lanata, longius acuminata, pariter integerrima vel denticulis 
distantibus notata. Capitula speciosa, late campanulata, mascula absque radio pollicem diametro, ligulis 
numerosis fere 5 lin. longis.- Involucrum viride squamis fere omnibus apice patentibus vel reflexis, Flores 
ceterum L. Jatifoliw. Ligule minute 2-3-dentate. Pappi palez setiformes, parum inaquales, majores 
subcomplanatz, apice omnes acutiuscule nec penicillate. Capitula foeminea non visa. 
480. Acourtta formosa, Don.—DC. Prod. v. 7. p. 66.—Hook. et Arn. Bot. Beech. p. 487.— 
Trizis latifolia, Hook. et Arn. 1. c. p. 300.—Acapulco. 
481. Acourti®, sp.?—Cacalia sessilifolia, Hook. et Arn. Bot. Beech. p. 436.—The anthers 
have certainly short tails, and the lobes of the corolla are revolute and apparently bilabiate. The 
habit combined with these characters show that the plant is allied to Acourtia or Trizis, but the 
flowers are so much injured by insects that I am unable to ascertain the genus with accuracy.—

482. Trrxis frutescens, Br—DC. Prod. v. 7. p. 68.—Tepic, Gulf of Fonseca. 
483, Trrxis obvallata, Hook. et Arn. Bot. Beech. p. 300. t. 65.— Acapulco. 
484, Prcrosta longifolia, Don.—DC, Prod. v. 7. p. 251.—Pappus sordidus. — Peyta in 
Columbia, Guayaquil. 
LOBELIACER. 
485. Cenrropocon Surinamensis, Presl—A. DC. Prod. v. 7. p. 345.—Columbia. 
486. Loseria laxiflora, Humb. et Kunth.—A. DC. Prod. v. 7. p- 383.—Realejo. 
To this belong L. lanceolata and L. angulato-dentata, Hook. et Arn. Bot. 
Beech. p. 301. L. ovalifolia, Hook. et Arn. 1. c. p- 300, is intermediate between 
the above forms (all broad leaved), and L. rigidula, Humb. et Kunth, which in the 
Prodromus has been considered (and probably with good reason) to belong to the 
same species, although with some hesitation, as it is given both as a synonym to 
L. laxiflora, and as a substantive species. The narrow-leaved variety, which is 
the Siphocampylus bicolor of our gardens, is in this respect constant, but still 
probably a mere variety of a very variable plant.
