5. Sc^voLA Chamissoniana, Gaud, (a form with pubescent co- 

 rolla), Hook. & Arn,, Cham, (corolla, &c. glabrous), clearly includes 

 S. Menziesiana, Cham. (excl. var.), a small-leaved foi'm, either glabrous 

 or pubescent ; S. ciliata, G. Don ; S. ligustrifolia, Nutt. 1. c. (a form 

 with small and almost entire leaves) ; S. pubescens, Nutt. 1. c. ; S. pu- 

 bescens, Gaud, in the Paris herb, (with the younger leaves beneath and 

 the inflorescence softly pubescent, the corolla externally pubescent) ; 

 S. intermedia, Gaud. 1. c. (with the corolla and the lanceolate nearly 

 entire leaves glabrous) ; S. DieUiana, Gaud. 1. c, with larger, puberu- 

 lent, and sparingly serrate leaves, the peduncle elongated. All are 

 forms of one species, which has more veiny and toothed leaves than the 

 foregoing, mostly slender and often several-flowered peduncles, and 

 broader, broadly wing-margined lobes to the corolla. 



6. ScvEVOLA MOLLIS, Ilook. & Am., of Oahu, also on Kauai with 

 the leaves not so downy, is well marked by the soft and dense canescent 

 pubescence or close tomentum of the lower surface of the large, oblong- 

 lanceolate leaves, short-peduncled inflorescence, and outside of the 

 coroUa. The latter has not a particularly long tube, nor are its lobes 

 unusually pointed. 



7. Sc.EVOLA (Camphusia, De Vr.) glabra, Hook. & Arn. The 

 limb of the more or less curved yellow corolla is nearly equally five- 

 cleft, although some of the lobes are apt to be conglutinate ; and the 

 anthers are normal for the genus. The connective is .similarly pro- 

 duced in the following species, and, as figured by Labillardiere, in S. 

 montana. 



8. Sc.EVOLA FLORiBUNDA (sp. nov.) : fruticosa, orgyalis ; ramis 

 puberulis mox glabratis, axillis vix barbatis ; foliis lanceolato-oblongis 

 subspathulatis submembranaceis repando-dentatis obscure penninerviis 

 glabris basi attenuata sessilibus vel subpetiolatis ; cymis multifloris ex 

 axillis supremis et terminali thyrsum amplum efficientibus ; calycis lobis 

 ovatis oblongisve ovario brevioribus ; corolla extus incana, lobis intus 

 glabris oblongis ; stylo glabro ; indusio ciliato extus piloso. — Feejee 

 Islands, where it was also collected by Professor Harvey. 



Of Campamdacece the only thing of interest is 



"Wahlenbergia Peruviana (sp, nov.) : hirtella, humilis ; cauhbus 

 ramosis diffusis ; ramis usque ad apicem foliosis ; foliis alternis parvis 

 spathulatis subintegerrimis sessilibus, summis florem bracteantibus ; 

 calycis tubo hemispha^rico hirsuto lobis oblongis brevioribus ; corolla 

 brevi-campanulata ultra medium quinquefida ; capsula semisupera, parte 

 libera conico trivalvi. — Andes of Peru above Baiios.
