A species allied to the J. biserialis, L. and L., of Tasmania, but less than half the size, with more minute denti- 

 culations to the leaves, which are widely ovate, not round or decurrent at the anterior margin, nor bispiuous at the 

 apex.

We owe our acquaintance with this plant to the liberality of our learned friend M. Montague, who most gene- 

 rously has communicated to us his own examples of such Antarctic species as we desired for comparison or examination, 

 unhesitatingly confiding his unique specimens to the care of the post-office, that we might profit to the fullest 

 by his labours, and avoid unnecessary errors. It differs from our /. unciformis in the larger and narrower leaves, 

 which are acute and serrato-dentate along the inner margin.

Hab. Hermite Island, Cape Horn ; abundant, in the woods. 



Species insignis. Caespites laxi, majusculi ; exterue pallide sed luride olivacei. Caulea 4 unc. longi, hregula- 

 riter ramosi, ramis compressis. Folia \ unc. longa, arete laxiusve imbricata, marginibus dorsalibus parium sub- 

 oppositorum rotundatis postice porrectis appressis earinamque cauh quasi efficientibus ; margine superiore paido 

 incm'vo, marginibus omnibus minute sed creberrime et regulariter dentieulatis. Perigonia in spicam brevem termi- 

 nalem disposita. 



Most nearly related to the PL fiaccida, Lindb., of St. Vincent, which has a very similarly hard and woody- 

 stem but the present may be known by the greater breadth of its branches and foliage, by its more compound ramifi- 

 cation and the minute denticulation of its leaves.

We have seen no Fuegian specimens of tins species. Those M. Montagne has examined, are in a very unsatis- 

 factory state.
