The 3d part of the 3d volume of Martius ** Nova Genera 
et Species Plantarum Brasilia,” (the conclusion of the 
work) has recently reached us. Of the 28 plates, a large 
proportion is occupied by JMelastomaceg; 3 are devoted to 
an admirable illustration of the Balanophoree. Tab. 291, 
Myrrhinium atropurpureum, Schott and Martius, is a very 
remarkable plant of the Memecylee, to which the Tetraste- 
mon* loranthoides, Hook. and Arn. in Bot. Misc. v. iii. p. 
318, should undoubtedly be referred. Martius gives it as a 
native of the province of St. Sebastian; Mr. Baird found it 
at Santa Cruz in the missions of Brazil. 
The progress of Botany is greatly indebted to the numerous 
Collectors of Plants who are now scattered over various 
parts of the globe. The ** Unio Itineraria,” an Association 
which we have warmly advocated in former pages of this 
Journal, is extending its circle of research, and rendering 
* Felicianea rubrifolia, St. Hil. Fl. Bras. Merid. v.i. p. 375. t. 157.
