 Rainiera stricta Greene, Pittonia, iii. 291 (1898). Some years ago 

 the writer submitted material of this species to Dr. O. Hoffmann, 

 author of the revision of the Compositae in Engler & Prantl's Natiir- 

 liche Pflanzenfamilien. Replying to a request for his opinion as to 

 the generic affinities of the plant, he wrote, under date of 20 September, 

 1897, " Nach Untersuchung des mir iibersandten Materials halte ich 

 Ihre Ansicht, dass die fragliche Pflanze in die Gattung Luina gehort 

 fiir richtig, vorausgesetzt dass man Luina von Cacalia trennt. * * * * 

 Doch wiirde ich fiir eine Vereinigung von Luina und Cacalia nicht 

 stimmen." Having from my first investigation of the plant in ques- 

 tion felt that it was a Luina, and having been confirmed in this view 

 by the high authority of Dr. Hoffmann, I here associate with the gen- 

 eric name the earlier specific designation, according to the provisions 

 of the International Rules.
