quantity by the path to Eocaclillo, which is now all cultivation 

 and I think it is exterminated !

 1883 !] III. i. Punta Mala ! Campo Common ! 



Carregnoa humilis J. Gay. Similar places ; very rare ; 10. 

 III. i. Carteian Hills near Puente Mayorga ! Near Almoraima, D.

 Campamento Common to Pindalista ! Alcadeza Plain ! Probably 

 elsewhere, but not seen in fiow^er.

[N. iwlyanthus Lois., a frequent species in the province, with 

 subterete scape, and pale yellow entire corona, was found on the 

 Eock by Clusius, but never confirmed.] 



[Agave americana L. is very extensively planted, and has 

 become so well naturalised here and there on the Eock and in

Smilax aspera L. Bushy ground ; frequent ? 9-1. I have 

 never seen the type, which has red fruit (S. rubra Willd. ?), but 

 Debeaux says it is common. The leaves seem to vary too indefi- 

 nitely to afford specific characters. I. K., D. III. K., D. 



Var. mauritanica G. & G., with black fruit, is common. The 

 fruit in all I have seen is smaller and in larger clusters than in 

 the common species of the Italian Eiviera, though by description 

 it should be larger than in the type. The forms require elucidation.
