Cissus serratifolia. Rottler, MSS. 



I regret that I know so little of the present plant, which I 

 think may be easily distinguished from the Cissus pedata, 

 the only one with which it can be confounded. There is a 

 tendril opposite to every other leaf. 



[The only tolerable specimen that Dr. Wight had the 

 opportunity of examining of this Cissus was the one here 

 figured ; and that is evidently in so young a state in regard 

 to the flowers, that it appears to afford no distinguishing mark 

 from the C. pedata, which I have received both from Dr. Wal- 

 lich and Dr. Wight, save in its glaucous and pulverulent 

 stem. It is, however, the C. serratifolia of Dr. Rottler, who 

 has, doubtless, satisfied himself of its character as a species 

 from an examination of perfect specimens. — H.~\ "^
