Dr. Smrtu’s Remarks. on ome Foreign Species of Orobanche. 109 
having often found it, in the month of May, in grafly places, near 
the fea—the very fituation in which it occurs in Norfolk. Gouan 
very érroneoufly refers) to this fynonym of Magnol as belonging to 
Orobanche ramofa. The Botanicuin: Monfpelienfe. of Magnol being to 
the Montpellier botanifts what Ray’s Syvpfs is to our Englith ones, 
they are neceflarily fuppofed to know every, plant it contains; and 
what they really do not underftand, they refer to {ome other {pecies 
as varieties, but too) often on infufficient grounds. 
To contribute fomething more, towards the hiftory of this con- 
fufed genus of Orsbanche, I thall add the charaéters of two foreign 
fpecies not ‘hitherto afcertained. | The Britifh ones will foon be 
more fully elucidated than they have:hitherto been, by the labours 
of the Rev. Mr. Sutton; a member of this Society... Qurjoint obfer- 
vations, particularly the characters we have difcovered for difcrimi- 
nating the fpecies, may. perhapsbe, of ufe, to. botanifts of. other. 
countries, who may make ftill farther difcoveries.than we have 
made; fo that in time a tolerably complete hiftory of the genus may 
be obtained, for’ senor we have dcatcaly materials at- prefent fuf-"
