' For convenience sake, the species have, as far as possible, been arranged 

 under the sections of the genus as defined in the Flora Capeiisis, Vol. 

 II., although I am of opinion these cannot in several cases be kept up 

 in the form adopted by Harvey. The genera Hehiphytum and JUilliarda 

 have been sunk in Crassula under sect. Tillaea.
