My plant I believe to be the same as the one described by 
Cambessedes, although he has not noticed that the angles of 
the triangular branches are densely ciliated with long ferru- 
gineous hairs, while the flat surfaces are nearly glabrous. It 
is on account of this oversight that Martius, believing 
Cambessedes’ plant to be a different species, has retained 
the name which Vellozo had given to the plant figured by 
him in the Flora Fluminensis.

My Specimen of this number, which is a small shrub, is 
hot ina sufficiently good state to be determined. It is a 
Staminiferous plant, and very probably belongs to some 
tribe of the old Natural Order Teredinthacee.
