 Toliola subsessilia^ 2-3 unc. longa, 1-1^ unc, lata. Bracteae pedicel- 

 lum subaequantes. Petala calycis lobis breviora, laminibus ungue 

 duplo longioribus. Filamenta calycem paulo superantia. 



Sedum Sheareri, sp. n. Caule carnoso crasse-carnosulo glabrcy^ 

 foliis bracteisque lineari-oblongi'^! obtusis basi subamplexicaulibus, 

 floribus sessilibus in cymam terminalem multiflorara bifidara dispositis,- 

 calycis laciniis oblongis obtusis. petalis OTato-oblongis acuminatis 

 calycis laciniis duplo latioribus dimidioque longioribus, staminibus 10 

 alternis par am brevioribus, carpellis oblongis apice attenuatis. — Ascen- 

 dens. Polia circiter 1 unc. longa, 1-2 lin, lata; bractese paula 

 minores. Calyx 3 lin. longus, glaber. Fructus.- 



This comes near the S. muUiflorum of Wallich. 



Eugenia, sp. There is an Eugenia with quadrangular fedgrety- 

 barked branches, oblanceolate, obtuse or sometimes emarginate leaves,- 

 4 to 6 lines long and 2 to 3 broad, flowers few together in axillary 

 subsessile fascicles and small ovoid shallowly-pitted fruits. It appears 

 to be a new species near E. (Syzygium) huxifolia, Hook, and Arn. 

 There are no flowers. 



Sanicula orthacantha, sp. n. Foliis radicalibus longe petiolatis 

 palmato-partitis lobis ovatis basi cuneatis irregulariter callosa-incisis^ 

 caulinis tripartitis, involucro bifoliato foliis trisectis, bracteolts subu- 

 latis minutis, umbellulibus circiter 6-floris, fl. mas. longe pedicellatis^ 

 calyce campanulato laciniis linearibus, petalis' obovatis retusisy stami- 

 nibus longe exsertis, fl. fern, intima sessili, fructu immaturo echinato^ 

 echinis crebris, rectis. — Herba glabra. Eadix tuberosus ? Foliorum 

 petioli radicalium 4-5 unc. longi. Fl. mas. pedicelli 1^ lin. longi. 



This plant occupies a mean position between S. tuber culata, 

 Maxim., and S. europma^ having the long-pedicelled male flowers of 

 the former and the echinate fruits of the latter species.

 longa, superiora squamiformia. Capitula 1 lin. diam. Ligulae albae.
