allied to Cr. orhicidaris, from which, however, it is distinguished 

 by its broadly ovate, acuminate, folded leaves and many other 

 characters. 



Crassula (Bulliarda') limosn, Schonl. n, sp.- Small, much 

 branched, glabrous annual, only a few cm. high ; stem and 

 branches filiform, frequently rooting at the nodes : lower inter- 

 nodes 5-8 mm. long, upper much shortened ; leaves ovate or obovate, 

 lower distinctly, though shortly, petiolate, upper almost sessile ; 

 lamina 1^-3 mm. long ; flowei-s single, terminal ; pedicels slen- 

 der, about twice the length of the leaves : calyx-lobes narrow, 

 obovate with wide rounded interspaces, about l^mm. long ; petals 

 pale pink, smaller than the sepals, broadly ovate, connate at the 

 base : stamens not much more than half the length of the petals, 

 filaments subulate, anthers ovate ; ovary several-ovuled, style 

 short, subulate; squamae broadly flabelliform, rounded above.

This species is closely allied to Cr. cilpina, Endl. and Cr. peipil- 

 losa., Schonl. et Bale, fil. It can easily be distinguished from these 

 through its perfectly glabrous leaves and sepals and the shorter 

 petals. A plant from the same locality, collected Ap. 1895, was 

 distributed under the same number by Mr. Galpin. It is, how- 

 ever, not the same. It is either closely allied, or even identical 

 with Cr. {Bulliarda) Vaillantn, D.C. 



Crassula {Pyramidella) iKichypliylla, Schonl. n. sp. Stem 

 suffruticose, simple, erect or decumbent, glabrous, efoliate l)elow 

 (when old), densely imbricated above, up to 18 cm. long ; leaves 

 connate, glaucous, very thick, ovate, very convex on the back, 

 nearly fiat above, late]-ally compressed towards the apex, glabrous 

 except the margin of the sheath which is ciliate, the lowest and 

 largest c. 3 cm. long, 1 cm. thick, very gradually becoming smaller 

 further up ; inflorescence cymose, densely capitate many flowered, 

 sessile or subsessile, involucrate; sepals connate, tul^e c. 2 mm long, 

 lobes c. 3 mm. long, nearly strapshaped, rounded above, with cili- 

 ate and hyaline margin ; petals cream-coloured, connate to 

 over \ of their length, tapering above into long lanceolate, 

 channelled points, about 12 mm. long : stamens attached to 

 corolla-tube, filaments short, filiform anthers oblong ; carpels 

 obliquely ovate, c. 4 mm. long, ciliate above on inside margin ;
