232 Dr. J. D. Hooker's Enumeration of the Plants 



Professor Henslow remarks that the capsule is 4-locular instead of 3-loeular, 

 but that this character of the capsule is one which cannot be relied on. 



232. SiDA (Abutilon) depauperata, Hook. Jil. ; pubescens, raniis teretibus 

 virgatis lignosis cinereis albo-maculatis, foliis sparsis petiolatis latfe cor- 

 datis acutis obtus^ crenatis coriaceis utrinque velutinis venis reticulatis 

 senioribus rugosis supern^ scaberulis ferrugineis, pedicellis brevibus 2-3- 

 floris, calyce latfe campanulato rufo-ferrugineo segmentis obtusis, corolla 

 calyce bis longiore, carpellis 5-6, seminibus 3-5. 



Hab. Charles Island, Charles Darwin, Esq. 



Rami crassitie pennae anatinae, pedales, teretes. Folia ramis terminalibus majora, 1| unc. 



longa, petiolo ^-f unc. longo, ramis lateralibus multo minora. Flores ^ unc. diametro, 



flavi. 

 Though the specimens are very imperfect, they evidently belong to a hitherto 

 undescribed and quite distinct species. 



233. SiDA (Malvinda) tej^vicavlis, Hook. ^l. ; caule erecto ramoso lignoso, 

 ramis puberulis gracilibus parce foliosis subflexuosis, stipulis subulatis, 

 foliis petiolatis lineari-oblongis utrinque rotundatis subduplicato-crenato- 

 serratis supra (siccitate) brunneis subtus canis reticulatim venosis, pe- 

 dunculis axillaribus folio brevioribus, lobis calycinis acutis, carpellis sub 

 4 calyce omnin5 incliisis obliqufe ovatis acutis bidentatis obscurfe trans- 

 versa reticulatis monospermis. 



Hab. James Island, Charles Darwin, Esq. 



Fruticulus bipedalis ; ramis cortice fusco tectis, gracilibus, elongatis, parce foliosis. Folia 

 subuncialia, petiolo laminam subaequante v. breviore. Calyx 3 lin. longus. 



Near S. spinosa, L. ; the leaves however are smaller, and the carpels much 

 less and quite included in the calyx, and only toothed at the apex. 



Caryophylle^.
