Hutchinson, T., Herderia and Triplotaxis. (Kew Bull. Mise. Inform. 

 NO. 10. p. 353—357. 1 pl. 1914.) 



The genus Herderia, as founded by Cassini in 1830 was 

 monotypic, being based on H. truncata from Senegambia, In 

 1849, a second species H. stelhdifera was described by Bentham 

 from Fernando Po. ßut, after having compared the habit and 

 floral dissections, the author has come the conclusion that the two 

 species represent distinct genera. Quite recentl}^ also 2 new species 

 have been described one H. 1-ancifolia, O. Hoffm., which is un- 

 doubtedly congeneric with H. truncata ; the other, H. somalensis, 

 Hoffm having alle the generic characters of H. stelhdifera. It 

 is therefore proposed to limit the genus Herderia to H. truncata 

 and H. lancifolia and to found a new genus Triplotaxis. The new 

 names therefore are: Triplotaxis, Hutchinson, gen. nov. ; T. stelhdi- 

 fera, Hutchinson, comb, nov.; T. somalensis, Hutchinson, comb. nov.

The author visited the Faeroes in the summer 1913 and col- 

 lected several flowering plants and mosses, the more interesting 

 of which are enumerated in the present list. No species new for 

 the islands was found, three introduced flowering plants {Petasites 

 albus, Cynosurus cristatus and Hordeum distichutn) excepted.
