fully figured in 1802 j placed in Tiliaceae by St. Hilaire in 1805 

 (Expos., vol. ii., p. 91, ex Pfeiffer) ; and transferred to Elaeocarpeae 

 in 1824 (DC. Prodr., vol. i., p. 520). 



3. The species Crinodendron Patagua, Molina, cannot now be 

 identified with certainty. 



The specific name lanceolata is the earliest (in the species under 

 consideration) about which there is no ambiguity. The adoption 

 of the specific name Patagua would imply the identity of the 

 doubtful G. Patagua, MoL, with T. lanceolata, Miq., and this 

 cannot be proved ; it is also undesirable on account of the pre- 

 existing T. Patagua, Miers, now reduced to T. dependens, Ruiz et 

 Pav. The adoption of the name Eookeriana is also open to 

 objection, since it implies that Gay was right in identifying 

 G. Patagua, Mol., with T. dependens, Ruiz et Pav. The two re- 

 maining specific names available are lanceolata and hexapetala ; 

 the former is the earlier and is more diagnostic. 



VI.-REDUCTI0NS OF THE WALLICHIAN HER- 

 BARIUM—! BIGNONIACEAE ; PEDALINEAE. 



C. B. Clarke. 



The Wallichian Herbarium was the Herbarium belonging to the 

 Honourable East India Company. Its contents were distributed 

 under the Company's orders in 1828 and subsequent years by 

 Dr. N. Wallich, F.R.S., with the assistance of various other 

 botanists. The type set was presented by the Company to the 

 Linnean Society of London, at whose premises it is now preserved. 

 At various times the late Mr. C. B. Clarke and others have had 

 occasion to critically examine portions of this type set, and 

 Mr. Clarke has left in manuscript the reductions resulting from 

 his examination of the specimens. 



These reductions are likely to be of practical utility to those in 

 charge of the various distributed sets of the Herbarium, and in 

 order that they be more readily available it is proposed to publish 



them in th^ Vo<u< n^m^t;^ r *
