Dr. Arnott in the Ann. Se. Nat. Par. 2d Ser. p. 248, des- 
cribes under the name of C. Hookeri, a species from the isle 
of St. Vincents, which he considers as allied to C. Brownei, 
and it is probable that, with Reichenbach, he refers the 
species last described to C. Brownei, but De Candolle’s cha- 
racter * foliolis utrinque attenuatis" though it may some- 
times be observed in a few of the upper leaves is not at all the 
usual state of the C. striata. Should it however, be really the 
same, the name striata, of the same date as the other, is very 
characteristic and preferable for adoption. 1f Dr. Arnott's 
C. Hookeri be a good species, and if the C. Hookeriana Alph. 
DC. mentioned above, p. 479, be also distinct from C. ova- 
lis, the name of the latter one must be changed.
