FLORA OF THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS. 261 



Vienna, a manuscript list of the specimens of plants collected on the 

 Galapagos Islands in 1872 by Dr. Steindachner and now deposited in 

 the Naturkistorisch.es Hofmuseum in Vienna. These plants were gath- 

 ered rather as souvenirs of a peculiar flora than as scientific specimens, 

 and many are fragmentary. The list at hand includes the pteridophytes 

 (uos. 21 and 22) and spermatophytes (nos. 23 to 116). The first twenty 

 numbers seem to have been applied to thallophytes and bryophytes, but 

 these are not listed. The only plants mentioned which are not included 

 in the above flora are Tribulus terrestris, L., Crotalaria incana, L., and 

 Rhynchosia Senna, Gill. I have little doubt that the first of these is 

 what Andersson has called T. sericeus, a plant which is too near to 

 T. terrestris for very satisfactory distinction. Dr. Zahlbruchner writes 

 that the labels furnish no data as to the particular islands upon which 

 the plants were collected. The only new species among Dr. Steindach- 

 ner's plants was Tillandsia insularis, Mez.

1 With the collaboration of Professor H. Pittier, the author is preparing a cata- 

 logue to bring together the now scattered references to the flora of Coeos Island, 

 and unite with them the data derived from recent and very interesting collections. 

 In this subsequent paper the species here listed will be treated in greater detail.
