SOUTH AMERICAN PLANTS.

friends have pointed out to me tlie great inconvenience of 

 changing the names of plants so numerous and so long known 

 and cultivated in our gardens^ adding that it is always desirable 

 on the score of expediency to forego a rigid law, where the adoption 

 of it is attended with so much inconvenience, by the multiplication 

 of puzzling synonyms. Fully impressed with the force of this 

 argument, I propose to adhere to my original plan of retaining 

 the name of Witlwnngiaj as defined by Von Martins, for the 

 plants enumerated hvj. op. pp. 5 & 6, and prescridng that of 

 Poecilochroma as before established, while Saracha will remain 

 attached to those plants by which they have been extensively 

 known for so many years. The synonyms recommended {huj, op. 

 xi- pp. 56 & 57) should consequently be expunged, when the 

 species will stand thus :
