of Buck}?e?*a, with Mimulus, and Litnosella, to which 

 New Holland has furnished several new additions. 

 Respecting Limosella, as being- much better placed 

 here than in the 34th Order, there can surely be no 

 doubt. Sibthorpia and Disandra belong, without 

 question, to the Scrop/udaria', not to the Peclicu- 

 lares. 



Except in the Stamens, and perhaps Corolla, there 

 is little affinity between this Order and the Labiates. 

 Their qualities are almost totally different; nor is there 

 any analogy between the Fruit of each. The bulk of 

 the 39th makes the 1st Order in Linneeus's Didyna- 

 mia, that of the 40th the 2d Order of that Class. 



Ord. 41. SolanetE. "Calyx more or less deeply 

 5-cleft, often permanent. Corolla 5-cleft, and most 

 generally regular, bearing the 5 Stamens from it's 

 base. Style simple, as is generally the Stigma. Fruit 

 of 2 cells, with many Seeds ; either capsular, and 

 agreeing with the Scrophularite ; or more frequently 

 pulpy, with central Receptacles, from the middle of 

 the partition, subdividing the cells, and covered with 

 the Seeds. Embryo surrounding a farinaceous Albu- 

 men. (See next page.) Stem herbaceous or shrubby. 

 Leaves alternate ; sometimes 2, accompanying the 

 inflorescence, from the same point. Flowers vari- 

 ously disposed, often extra-axillary, from the sides of 

 the branch, next to the Leaves." 



The Fruit is capsular in Sect. 1. Celsia, Verbasciim, 

 Hyoscyamus, Nicotiana, and Datura; pulpy in Sect. 2,
