Mr. Brown, on the Proteacea of Jussieu, 221 



Serruri^. 



Protea abrotanifolia minor. And. Repos. 536. 



Protea abrotanifolia hirta. Jtid. Repos. 522. 



Protea abrotanifolia odorata. And. Repos. 545. 



These are manifestly Serruriae, but I do not venture to refer 

 them to any of the species I have described ; nor are there 

 sufficient materials from Avhich they may be characterized 

 as distinct species. 



NiVENIA. 



Protea concava. Lam. Illust. Gen. 1. p. 234. n. 1217. Poiret. 



Encyc. Botan. 5. p. 642. 

 A species of Nivecia, and perhaps one of those described, 



NiVENIA ? 



Protea candicans. Thimh. Prod. Append. 186. 



Probably a Nivenia, and perhaps not different from N. mol- 



lissimn : it may however be a species of Serruria, in which 



case it is probably S. candicans. 



Protea prostrata. Thunb. Prod. 27. 



1 know not to what genus this may belong ; but from the species 

 near which Thunberg has placed it, it may be supposed to 

 be either a Protea or a Lencadendron : if the latter, it is pro- 

 bably not very different from L. retusum. 



Hake A. 



Conchium drupaceum. Gart. Carp. 3. p. 217. ^ 219. 



I cannot refer this fruit to any of the species I have described. 



Emboturium chaparro. Humb. JEquin. Bot. 



Of this I know nothing but the name, which occurs in Hum- 

 boldt's Chart of .Equinoctial Botany, and is placed there at 



the height of about l600 feet.
