Note. 



In describing Bnddlea heterophylla, fol. 1259, we overlooked the 

 B. raadagascariensis of the Botanical Magazine, t. 2824, which is evidently 

 the same plant. But while we indicate the synonym, we remain of our first 

 opinion, that the species is an undescribed one : B. madagascariensis of 

 Lamarck and Vahl is described with 4-cornered branches, and leaves smooth 

 and shining above ; while B. heterophylla has taper branches, and leaves 

 downy above. It is undoubtedly true, that the lower leaves of B. hetero- 

 phylla become smooth ; but neither Lamarck nor Vahl appear to have 

 seen them, or they would have noticed the remarkable difterence in form 

 that exists between the upper and lower leaves.
