46 THE BOTANY OF BERMUDA. 



Brunfelsia Americana^ Phacelia congesta, Dolichos Lahlab were all added 

 to the list, as the result of accidental observatiou iu old gardens at St. 

 George's. 



Any scientific value the following list may possess, beyond its record 

 of facts of observation, such as localities, times of flowering, &c., is due 

 to the obliging supervision of Sir Joseph Hooker, under whose eye the 

 classes have been rearranged, the references checked, and the nomen- 

 clature corrected. The writer is responsible for the distribution of the 

 species as native, naturalized, or introduced, distinguished by the let- 

 ters A, B, and C, in the index. The Linnaean orders and the etymology 

 of names are given where they appear likely to be of assistance to- 

 wards the identification of plants. Synonyms are only given where the 

 names appear in Grisebach's flora, or in some accredited list of Bermuda 



plants.
