ADDENDA. 



Since the foregoing Eeport was printed, we have received a copy of General Sir John 

 Henry Lefroy's The Botany of Bermuda, from Bulletin No. 25 of the United States 

 National Museum. This little work was mainly compiled from materials placed at our 

 disposal by the author ; but it contains a few additional species, named by various 

 botanists, and further particulars as to the localities of a number of the indigenous ones. 

 Unfortunately, the editing leaves much to be desired, the same plant, in several instances, 

 being repeated under different synonyms ; others, by some slip, appear under false generic 

 names, and some are enumerated under wrong natural orders. Nevertheless, we are 

 able to make a few useful extracts concerning some of the probably indigenous plants. 

 Additional species are printed in black type, with references to descriptions as in the body 

 of the Report. 



MALVACEAE. 



Hibiscus tiliaccus, Linn. Known to have been raised about fifty years ago from seed 

 washed on shore. 



RUTACE^E. 

 Zanthoxylum aromaticum, Willd. ? 



Zanthoxylum aromaticum, Willd. 1 Griseb., Fl. Brit. W. Ind., p. 138. 

 Sir J. H. Lefroy thinks that a single tree of this or an allied species existing on a hill 

 east of Paynter's Vale may be a survivor of the " Yellow Wood " frequently mentioned in 

 the early records, where it is described as having leaves and rough bark kke the walnut 

 tree, and very pungent in taste. We had found no reference to this tree. Professor Oliver, 

 to whom Sir J. H. Lefroy sent leaves, could not determine the species with certainty. 



CELASTRINE^E. 

 Myginda rhacoma, Swartz. 



Myginda rhacoma, Swartz ; Griseb., Fl. Brit. W. Ind., p. 14G ; Chapman, FL Southern U.S., p. 75.

LEGUMINOS^E. 

 Guilandina bonducella, Linn.

 warm countries, the seeds of which are often cast ashore by the waves.
