On the banks of the river St. Mary, Georgia. Tj • 

 July, Aug. v.v. Flowers blush-red, marked with pur- 

 ple lines, in large clusters. Each flower has one ot the 

 divisions of the calyx grown out to a large white leaf, 

 tinged with red, which makes this shrub highly orna- 

 mental. It is only to be regretted, that it is very shy 

 of cultivation. The small difference of its fruit from 

 Cinchona only makes it excusable to keep it separate 

 from that genus j but I have no hesitation in saying, 

 that if Pinchieya is not united with Cinchona, there 

 will be some of the latter genus found belonging to 

 Pinchieya. ,
