* Boddaert's name is aicorupanicd by no description, but is published ns the 

 Latin name of ■' le Pitte-chou de Provence." figured by Daubeuton in the 

 'Planches Enluminees.' The figure is sufficiently good to leave no reasonable 

 doubt as to tlie species intended to be designated ; and Boddaert's name may 

 therefore he lield to have heeu " clearly defined ; " nevertheless there seems to be 

 no sufficient reason why the name in common use should be changed.
