I'ZH FLORA TELLUR. 



established since 1830, what is the date of the 

 other ? 



1207. Streptylis Raf. (twisted style) diff. 

 Commelina. cal, et cor. eq. stam. 3 villosis ad 

 basis, sterilis 3 nectarif. ciliat. antheris glandula, 

 stylo et stig. spiralis persistens — Type Str. brac- 

 teolata Raf. Com. do Lam. Com. spirata L. are 

 2 sp. blended here ? This is another G. to be re- 

 moved from Commelina and is very distinct. 



1208. Add to Sarcoperis 23, Ijacca triloba 

 carnosa ad cor. baccans, intus capsula 31oc, 

 apice 3valvis, sem, 5, uno locolo monospermo. 



1209. Add to Heminema 31, stylus brevis cras- 

 s6, stig. 3 villosis, capsula 31o •. 3sp. — It is also 

 the Tradescantia multifl. of Lunan, quite differ- 

 ent from that of Jaquin my Tripogandra 28. 



1210. Allosperma R. (different seeds) diff. 

 Commelina, capsula 31ocul. hivalms ! valva sup. 

 2loc. 4sp. sem. rotundis rugosis, loc. et valva inf. 

 monosp, semen elliptic© lenticularis. — A very 

 strange structure of fruit ! Type A, tuherosa R. 

 Com. do L. auct. fol. ovatolanc, ciliatis subtus 

 villosis, pedunc. multifl. Mexico, pedal fl. blue. 



1211. Add to DiRTEA 689. Commelina poly- 

 gama probably belongs here, and all the sp. 

 blended in C. communis said to grow in Asia, 

 Africa and America, but 5 or 6 sp. are blended 

 probably ! the African sp. is quite distinct X>. 

 africana R, fol. nervosis basi ciliatis fl. 2-3 axiL 

 caps. 21oc. 2valv. 4sperma. Probably a subg. 

 Diclisa Raf. very different from Cotn. africana 

 of Persoon. The Com. erecta includes also 

 several blended sp. having commonly the cap- 

 sule trigone trilocular 3sperme : thus another 

 subg. or G. perhaps same as my G. Ananthopus 

 690. 



1212. DiLAsiA R. (2 villose) diff. Dirtea, cal. 3
