 albi, corymbosi, fer^ Crakegi ojcyacantha, Corymhi axillares, multiflori. 

 Calyx campanulatus : laciniis ovalibus, margine denticulatis, leviterque

 na \b : Jilamentis subulatis, im^ basi in annulum prominulum connatis.

 deciduis, floribus corymbosis. 



Hab. In Chili. D. Cuming. T^ (V. s. sp. in Herb. Lamb.) 



Arbor sempervirens, Dodonace facie. Folia conferta, petiolata, lineari-lanceo- 

 lata, acuta, serrulata, basi attenuata, utrinque vernice obducta, tripolli- 

 caria : denticulis apice deciduo subinde obtusis. Flores (macsulos tantum 

 vidi) terminales, corymbosi, albi. Calyx cyathiformis : laciniis ovatis, 

 acutis, margine puberulis. Petala 5, obovata, venosa, ciliata. Stamina 

 15, quorum 5 laciniis calycinis opposita ; caeteris per paria petalis oppo- 

 sitis : JUamentis subulatis, ima basi in annulum prominulum connatis. 



Obs. Folia in toto genere oblique 'posita, nee verticalia, coriacea, paging 

 utrinque consimili, costi unic^ prominenti, venisque obliqu^ transversis, di-

3. M. linearifolia^ villosa ; foliis linearibus integris, perianthii fauce dilatai^ 

 corona decemfida : laciniis dentatis. 



Gynopleura linearifolia, Cav. Icon. iv. p. 52. t. 376. 



Hab. In Chili montibus, prsesertim in tractu Portillo vulgb dicto 

 usque ad Mendoza urbem. Ludovicus Nee. ? 



Caulis tripedalis. Folia sessilia, linearia, integerrima, semipollicaria ; inferiora 

 longiora, serrulata. Flores axillares (an rectius oppositifolii ?) albi. Pe- 

 rianthium fauce dilatatum, campanulatum, limbo 10-fidum ; laciniis exte- 

 rioribus lineari-oblongis, obtusis ; interioribus obovatis, retusis. Styli in- 

 fra apicem ovarii inserti. 



I had referred to this plant, with a note of interrogation, un- 

 der my M. paniculata, described in the number above quoted 

 of this Journal ; and although I have not yet been so fortunate 

 as to see a specimen, I am now convinced of its being a distinct 

 species. 



4. M. humilisy villosissima, foliis laciniatia, perianthii fauce dilatata, coronft 

 simplici eros^ dentate, antheris subrotundis !
