VI. EHRETIA ZEYHERIANA, Buek. (Boraginee. 
E. Zeyheriana: ramulis junioribus pedunculisque fuliginoso-pube- 
rulis, foliis petiolatis lato-ellipticis oblongisve subacutis vy. obtusis 
levibus margine vix squamulosis, cymis multifloris extra-axillaribus, 
calycibus 5-fidis obtusis pubescentibus, corolle lobis obtusis margine vix 
fimbriolatis.—E. Zeyheriana, Buek. in Herb, Eck. & Zey. 
Has.—Near Uitenhage, Zeyher, Dr. Alexander Prior, Albany, T. Williamson. 
(Herb. T. C. D.) 
A shrub. Young branches somewhat angular, virgate, dark-coloured 
or smoky, and thinly covered with minute, deciduous pubescence. 
Leaves 14-2 inches long, 1-14 inch wide, elliptical, obtuse, or subacute, 
pale below, all but the very young ones glabrous, except at the margin, 
which is minutely scaly. Cymes trichotomous, much divided, nigro- 
pubescent. lowers dark purple, the calyx one-third as long as the 
corolla, style shortly bifid. 
Very nearly allied to 2. Hottentotica, Burch., which appears to be 
the same as #. Eckloniana, Buek.; but in £. Zeyheriana the leaves are 
larger, less obovate, thinner, not so rough at the edges; the calyx lobes 
are blunter, and the twigs more virgate. These characters may be owing 
to a freer growth in better soil, and eventually the two varieties will 
perhaps be united.

VII. ANEMONE CAFFRA, Eck. & Zey. (Ranunculacee.) 
A. caffra: acaulis; foliis rigidis glabrescentibus 5~7 lobis, lobis 
biserratis, petiolis villosis, pedunculo scapiformi unifloro basi villoso 
supra involucrum parvum dense lanato, sepalis pluribus lanceolatis gla- 
briusculis v. extus parcissime villosis.—LZck. §- Zey. En., No. 4; Harv. 
& Sond. FI. Cap., vol.i., p.4; A. alchemillefolia, EB. Mey. in Herb, Drege. 
Haz.—Eastern districts and Caffraria, on grassy hills, Ecklon & Zeyher, Col. Bolton, 
and others. (Herb. T. C.D.) 
Descr.—Rootstock woody, throwing up several long-petioled leaves, 
and one or more scape-like peduncles. eaves palmately nerved, about 
7-lobed, the lobes sharply and somewhat doubly serrate; upper surface 
nearly glabrous, lower villous, especially on the prominent nerves. In- 
volucre of 2-3 small leaves. Peduncle 1-1} feet high, densely woolly 
for 2-3 inches below the flower, silky towards the involucre, below 
which it is either villous or glabrescent. J'lowers rosy white, the petals 
thinly villous externally, or nearly glabrous.
