one of the coutinental American species (cf. L. I'dacina and L. canes- 

 ce7is, HBK.), or segregated iuto several more or less distinct forms. 

 The iiidefiniteness which now prevails regarding the S. American species 

 of the genus is such as to render the further classification of the 

 Galapageian forms, for the present, impracticable.

"^"^ L. CANESCENS, HBK. Nov. Gen. & Sp. ii. 263 (1817). L. lanceolata, 

 Rose (1), 137, not Michx. L. nodijlora, Cham. Linnaea, vii. 213 (1832);

 Heller, no. 709 (hb. Gr.). Hood Isl. : around a mud lake, Snodgrass 

 &, Heller, no. 755 (lib. Gr.). Further distrib. S. Am. 



L. rosmarinifolia, Anderes. (1), 198, & (2), 80; Rob. & Greenm. 

 (1), 147. — Abingdon Isl.: Snodgrass & Heller, no. 827 (hb. Gr.). 

 Albemarle Isl.: in very dry places of the middle region, Andersson ; 

 Elizabeth Bay, Snodgrass & Heller, no. 280 (hb. Gr.) ; eastern part, 

 B'tur, no. 179 (hb. Gr.) ; Tagus Cove, not common, 150 to 460 m. alt., 

 Snodgrass & Heller, nos. 168 (hb. Gr.), 147 (hb. Gr.) ; mountain east 

 of Tagus Cove, Snodgrass & Heller, nos. 233, 251, 888, 890, & 896 (all

 become stronglv toothed. Endemic. 



Baur's nos. 181 and 182 (both in hb. Gr.) from eastern Albemarle 

 are probably branches of this species (sterile). 



L. SALiciFOLiA, Anderss. (1), 198, & (2), 80. — Charles Isl.: in 

 woods on the side of the mountain summit. Andersson (hb. Gr.). 

 Endemic.
