The wild Potato-flip 







**- - r 



This plant is very common in all parts of Jamaica ; it moots by a very flender 



ftem, and climbs to the tops of the talleft trees in the woods. Hern, fays that a de- 



ition of the frefh leaves purges moderately, and deftroys the worms.

The fmaller creeping Convolvulus. 



This little plant is found on the fide of the road that leads to the foot of the long 

 mountain in Liguanee ; it creeps and roots upon the ground, but feldom grows 

 above two or three inches in length ; the leaves are roundifh, and the flowers tubular, 

 but moderately open and divided at the margin ; the ftile is divided in four parts to 

 the very bafe, and the fruit is a capfule, and contains two or four feeds like the reft 

 of the fpecies, nor are the flamina very equal in their length, which obliged me 

 to place it under this denomination.
