318 PROCEEDINGS OF THE AMERICAN ACADEMY 



182. " 3felastomacea" seemingly a MediniUa, is none of ours. 



184. " Crossostylis hijlora, Forst." is by no means that plant, but a 

 new species of our allied genus. It should bear the name of 



Haplopetaloyi Seemamii : a H. Richii differt foliis majoribus obovatis 

 subtus cum ramis novellis moUiter pubescentibus ; alabastris hirsutis ; 

 calycis segmentis petalisque saepius 5 ; styli lobis 7. 



196. " Spirceanthemum Vitiense" is not that species, but apparently 

 a new one, much nearer S. Samoense. 



198. " Weinmannia" is new to our collection, unless it be a variety 

 of 197, W. affinis, of which 199 and 200 are obviously mere varieties. ; 



206. " Plerandra Pickeringii " is hardly that species, but appears to 

 be identical with 209, a new species of Plerandra. I have no speci- 

 men of 207. 



208. " Araliacea " is also polyandrous, and is a remarkable new 

 Plerandra, if its separate stigmas or short styles will allow. 



213. " Calycosia Milnei, A. Gray," is the species described under 

 that name in the Proceedings of the Academy, 4, p. 307, but with 

 longer leaves. Drupe pyriform. 



215. " Dolicholobium longissimum. Seem." may be a good species, 

 but is not unlikely to be a variety of D. latifolium, Gray, witli less 

 ample leaves more downy underneath. The specimens of the two are 

 not complete or full enough to settle this question. 



216. " Myrmecodia Vitiensis, Seem.," is evidently ITyd7iophytum 

 longijloram, Gray, 1. c, with shorter leaves. 



217. '■' Lindenia Vitiensis, Seem." was not met with in the Ameri- 

 can Expedition. 



218. " Gardenia Vitiensis, Seem." This is quite different from the 

 only Gardenia from the Feejee Islands in our collection, that being a 

 small-leaved form of G. Taitensis. 



220. " Canthium Harveyi " is not at all the species published under 

 that name, but apparently a form of 221, G. lucidum, Hook, and Arn. 



223. " Morinda " is M. myrtifolia. Gray, 1. c, with larger leaves ; 

 perhaps a mere variety of M. umbellata. 



224. " M. sp. fol. pubescentibus," not communicated, is probably M. 

 mollis. Gray, 1. c. 



226. '■^ M. phillyreoides,J^dih\W." was not communicated. There is 

 nothing answering to that species in the American collection. 



236. " Stylocoryne corymbosa, Labill." is Psychotria Forsteriana ^. 

 Vitiensis, Gray, 1. c.
