Liliaceie, 



Smilax timorensis, Bl 37-il, 8. The two pairs of umbels of flowers together 



serve cUarly to distinguish it from S. lati/oh'a, "^ 



anceps, Wllld.— This Muscarine plant was said by De:!aisne to have 

 been collected iu Timor by Kiedle and Guichenot. D^- Candolle 

 says that the specimens on wliich Decaisne founded his species are 

 ^vithout flowers and very doubtful. It seems more probable thev 

 belong to S. timorensis. and hardly likely that a plaut known only 



from the Mascurinc I:^lands and Madcigascar should be found also 

 in Timor.
