 der genannten Pflanze behandelnde Notiz von Heese in der 

 „Gartenwelt", X, No. 21, 1906 gleichfalls Mamillaria Perringil 

 Hildm. als eigene Art an, die von den gleichfalls als selbständige

 Daparquetia, and Strumpf ia. (Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical 

 Club. XXXIII. p. 223—228. f. 1—3. April 1906.) 



The anther of Dicorynia is 4-locellate at the base and 8- or even 

 JO-locellate above. The structure of the androecium of Duparquetla 

 is described. Strnmpfla has a synandrium of 5 anthers, each with 

 4 locelli. Intercellular spaces have been mistaken for locelli and 

 this accounts for the statement that there are 15 locelli in the outer 

 and 10 in the inner row. Trelease.

 ciilarls. (The Gardeners' Chronicle. Vol. XXXIX. 3. ser. 

 No. 1011. 1906. p. 290.) 



The nearest allies of this new species are P. slkklmensls and 

 P. Stiiartll, but it differs from both in having nearly entire leaves 

 and a corolla-tube, which scarcely exceeds the calyx and is con- 

 stricted near the top and below the middle at the Insertion of the 

 very short stamens; the limb of the corolla is further quite flat and 

 has entire lobes. P. orblciilarls is indigenous to Western China.
