culata pauciflora, calycis lobis insequalibus lineari-oblongis obtusis corolla 

 campanulata breviter 5-loba extiis puberula diiiiidio brevioribus. 

 Hab. Charles Island, Galapagos, T. Edmonstone, Esq. 



Perenne? Caulis basi lignosus, pedalis, vage ramosus, uti planta tota viscoso-puberulus. 

 Folia 1^-2-pollicaria, obtusa, ad medium pinnatifida, lobis 4-9 erecto-patentibus, sicci- 

 tate fusca, superiora subsessilia. Pedunculi 4-pollicares, 2-5-flori. Pedicelli |-unciales. 

 Calycis lobi 3 lin. longi, fructiferi dilatati. Corolla 7 lin. longa. Stamina stigmaque 

 inclusa. 



A very distinct species, whose nearest ally is a species from extra-tropical 

 North America, 8. triflorum ; it is also related to Mexican and Texian species. 



136. Lycopersicon pimpinellifolium, L. 



Hab. Chatham Island, Charles Darwin, Esq. Precisely similar to the South American 

 plant. 



137. L. EscuLENTUM, L. var. minor. 

 Hab. James Island, Charles Darwin, Esq. 



There are perfectly similar specimens of this plant, both from the continent 

 of South America and the South Sea Islands, in the Hookerian herbarium, 

 under the name of L. esculentum. All these are smaller than the common 

 state of the species. 



138. L. Peruanum, var. parviflorum, Hook. fil. 

 Hab. Chatham Island, Charles Darwin, Esq. 



The flowers of the Peruvian specimens are larger than these, but as they 

 are not constant in that respect, and no other difference seems to exist, I have 

 kept the present as a variety. 



139. NiCOTIANA GLUTINOSA, L. 



Hab. Charles Island, Charles Darwin, Esq. Of very frequent occurrence in South America. 



DicTYOCALYx, genus novum. 



Calyx cylindraceus, 5-fidus, lobis acutis, tubo post anthesin subinflato membranaceo, reti- 

 culatim venoso. Corolla membranacea, subinfundibuliformis ; tubo gracili gradatim 

 superne ampliato ; limbo plicato, brevi, vix explanato. Staminum filamenta elongata ;
