SPH^ROCARPUS FRAGiLis. 



JH-AVING adopted Bulliard's Sphcerocarpus feffilis va.

 fent. This differs in being fhaped hke a pear, or fome- 

 what ftalked, and is alfo more fragile. It refembles 

 Spharocarpus ficoides of Bull. tab. \\'].Jig. 3. but that 

 figure is all black, both capfule and feeds, if I may fo 

 call them.
