CENTURIA IX. 17 



polysp. Arbor, fol. imbrlcatis, fl. panicid. — 

 Type E. odorata Raf. Drac. aiistralis Forst, 

 W. P. bot. m. 2835. Dr. obtccta Grab. fol. con- 

 fertis imbric. lane, acutis planis basi dilat. panic, 

 compos, spicata. In Australia, lino simple tree, 

 quite leafy witb babit of Yucca, fl. wbite fra- 

 grant, berries wbite. — How unlike Nemampsis 

 and my Clintonia, both united to Dracena once! 

 Dracena ought to be spelt Drakaina and the 

 type is Dr. draco. The Dr. marginata form- 

 ing the G. Fhylloina of Ker. bot. mag. 1585 

 chiefly differ from Euphyleiu by habit and sta- 

 mens filiform. 



^28. Clintonia Raf. 1817 not Clintonia of 

 Lindley 1829 which is my Gynampsis 1833. 

 Beautiful G. of mine shuffled into Dracena,Con- 

 vallaria, Smilacina ... by the Genera shufflers! 

 see my monograph of it in New Flora 42G to 

 448, including 20 sp. and var. under 2 subgen- 

 era Cuscumia and Onyxida. Q,uite tiistinct 

 from all akin by berry 21oc. and stigma bilobe, 

 from Stijrandra by 6 sepals and habit. The 

 G. Conmdlaria was one of the worst, having 

 no characters at all, and I have reformed it 

 into 8 Genera, in 1817 and 1830, see med. fl. 

 and below till 831.
