Adis Micholitziana is a near ally of the well-known A, San- 
deriana, Bull, but may be easily distinguished from that species by 
its smaller very rarely peltate leaves, which are less deeply lobed

Nivdodskdrde setosum is a neat-growing species, only oe one 
foot high, with small rather frctte lepidote leaves and clusters 
of rose-purple flowers about ?-inch long. The corolla is 5-lobed to 
loftier passes leading across the Eastern Himalaya into Tibet, and 
is remarkable for the heavy resinous aroma which it exhales after 
hot sunshine. The species is rarely met with in gardens, apparently 
being short-lived. The material for the illustration was obtained 
from Sir Edmund Loder’s garden at Leonardslee, Horsham. 
Senecio Kirkii is endemic in the North Island of New Zealand, 
where it occurs from sea-level to an elevation of 2500 feet, and is 
one of the many interesting plants introduced into this country from 
New Zealand and the neighbouring islands by Capt. A. A, Dorrien- 
Smith. It is a shrubby species, 7-15 feet high, with linear-oblanceo- 
late or obovate leaves, and large corymbs, sometimes as much as 
3 feet across, of white flower-heads, 14-2 inches in diameter. The 
plant flourishes in Mr. T. A. Dorrien-Smith’s gardens at Tresco
