The superposed arrangement of the ovoid (not com- 
pressed) pollinia shows clearly that the concept Lanium 
is distinct from the genus H/pidendrum. 
Judging from the description and floral analysis of 
Lanium peruvianum, this concept is inseparable from 
the variable L. microphyllum.

Judging from a record of the type of the Bolivian £/pi- 
dendrum brachyphyllum bearing an analytical drawing 
from the Lindley Herbarium at Kew, this concept in- 
cludes the Mpidendrum Lindenu which Lindley described 
in the Botanical Register of 1845. The latter concept is 
represented in our herbarium by a photograph of the type
