6. Cestrum montanum (n. sp.)—glaberrimum, ramulis tereti- 
bus, virgatis, superne subangulatis ; foliis lineari-lanceola- 
tis, valde acuminatis, petiolatis, pseudo-stipulis foliosis ; 
racemis axillaribus, compositis, pedunculo, pedicellisque 
compressis, apice tumidis, bracteis linearibus, caducissimis, 
staminibus inclusis, filamentis tenuibus, dente parvo mu- 
nitis.—Brasilia, in montibus Organensibus. v. v. 
The leaves are 4} in. long and 11 lines broad, with 14 pairs 
of divaricate nervures, on a slender petiole, 6 lin. long; the 
pseudo-stipules are spathulately ovate, 5 lines long, 3 lin. ~ 
broad ; the racemes are 2 in. long, and the pedicels 3 lines. 
The calyx is tubular, 1 line long, 5-toothed, with ciliate 
margins, the tube of the corolla is slender, 8 lin. long, swollen 
at the mouth, the border is expanded with lanceolate lobes 
and tomentous plicate edges, the filaments, one-third of its 
length, being inserted above the middle of the tube; the 
stigma is cup-shaped, hollow, somewhat 2-lobed, and 
exserted; the bracts are 2 lin. long, and very soon fall 
away. 
7. Cestrum coriaceum (n. sp.)—ramulis teretibus, furfuraceis ; 
foliis lanceolato-ellipticis, coriaceis, superne nitidis, subtus 
glaucis, rugosis, marginibus subrevolutis, petiolo crasso, 
caniculato, pseudo-stipulis nullis, floribus paucis axillaribus, 
vix racemosis, subfasciculatis, bracteis linearibus, stamini- 
bus edentulis, inclusis, medio corollz insertis, filamentis 
glabris, basi hirsutis.—Minas Geraes Brasilie. v. s. in herb. 
meo, et Herb. Hooker, (Gardner, n. 1786, et Claussen.) 
This is very distinct from C. corymbosum in its much 
larger and more coriaceous leaves and longer petiole, in its 
axillary flowers, in the insertion of the stamens, and other 
characters. It differs also from C. aurifolium in the size of 
its leaves, and its edentulate stamens. The leaves are very 
thick and opaque, 9 in. long and 33 in. broad, ona petiole 
9 lin. long. The peduncle of the raceme is barely 3 lines in 
length, few-flowered, with linear bracts, 1 line long. The 
calyx is campanulate, glabrous, 5-toothed, 14 line long, the
