 Muntingii.) Plantes Grasses, p. 32. cum icone. 



A. africana caulescens, foliis glaucis caulem am- 

 plectcntibus spinosis. Comm. Pr. t. 19. 



Obs. This is the loftiest of the Aloes : I have 

 seen it near 20 feet high. It is also the roughest- 

 leaved. 



* supralcevis. Aloe foliis oblongo-ensiformibus rigidis glaucescen- 



47 tibus; supra hevibus; infra irregulariter spinosis. 

 A. perfoliata s. Willd. Sp. PI. 2. 186. 



A. africana caulescens foliis glaucis caulem am- 

 plectentibus : dorso spinoso, Comm, Pr. t. 20. 

 Hort. 2. t. 13, 



Obs. This species and the last never produce 

 any offsets, and very rarely flower. 

 *jlavispina. Aloe foliis oblongo-acuminatis glaucis ; junioribus 



48 patulis; seniori us horizontalibus : lateribus dor- 

 soque interrupte spinosis ; spinis latissimis fulvi- 

 can tibus. 



Obs. This species is not much unlike the figure 

 of Dillenius's A. mitrceformis, but the spines are 

 not of the same colour. 



* albispina. Aloe foliis ovato-oblongis acutis virescentibus: mar- 



49 ginibuscarinaque valde spinosis; spinis longis; ju- 

 nioribus albissimis; senioribusapiceflavicantibus. 



Habitat ad Cap. Bon. Sp. 



Obs. This is a very fine species, and the largest- 

 spined of all the genus. It never produces any 

 offsets, and has not yet flowered in Europe.
