leaves sometimes subfasciculate, discovered 

 1818, long deemed a doubtful Ilex.

 lis cinereis unifl. foU ovatis oblongisve utrinque 

 acutis petiol. remote serrulatis, subtus et petio- 

 lis pubesc. fl. dioicis, cal. ciliolatis Shrub of 

 Alabama, branchlets terete with 1 to 3 leaves 

 and a terminal fiovver, berries pisiform, stig. glo- 

 bose depressed, calix almost square.

 Mts. shrub 4 feet. 



234. Ageria (mac ?) opaca Raf. Ilex do Ait. 

 auct. This sp. and laxijlora, with the habit of 

 Aquifolium^ have the stigma simple, and 4 ste- 

 rile filaments in the female flowers ; wherefore 

 perhaps a peculiar subg. Notholex Raf. 

 Robin was mistaken to state the stamens op- 

 posed to corolla, else it would be removed from 

 the family. Corolla 4parted as in Dahunia, ca- 

 lix not persistent as in Ageria, thus a peculiar 

 G. perhaps, 



235. Ageria (Ddih) cassena R. Ilex do and 

 Vomitoria auct. This ought to be the type of 

 Dahunia^ along with the akin sp. to which El- 

 liot ascribes 2 stigmas, realy one bilobe or bifid, 

 and often only 2 seeds. But /. prinoides, li- 

 giistrina, angustif, myrtifolia ^c, are so blen- 

 ded and confused, each author appearing to 

 mean a different kind, that I must leave their 

 settlement for a peculiar Monograph.
