Spec. Char., §c. Plant twining; upper part of the branches hairy on one side. 
Leaves coriaceous, reticulated, ovate, on short petioles, glaucous beneath, 
and ciliated on the margins: upper ones connately perfoliate. Spikes com-

4 12. L. occrpenTA‘LIs Hook. The Western Honeysuckle. 
Identification. Hook. Fl. Bor. Amer., 1. p. 282.; Don’s Mill., 3. p. 446.

cous beneath; upper ones connately perfoliate. Flowers disposed in ver- 
ticillate heads. Corolla glabrous, with an elongated tube, which is gibbous 
above the base; the limb nearly equal. Stamens almost inclosed. (Don’s 
Mill., iii. p.446.) The flowers are larger than in any other British North 
American species, and of a full orange red. Branches and peduncles gla- 
brous. A twining shrub, a native about Fort Vancouver, on the Columbia. 
Introduced in 1824, and flowering in June and July. A great acquisition to 
our gardens; and quite different from L. pubéscens, L. parviflora, and L. 
Douglasi ; and, if the presence or absence of hairs in the corolla are to be 
depended on, it is also different from L. cilidsa, which inhabits nearly the 
same country. 
L. pilisa Willd. Dec. Prod., 4. p. 233.; Caprifdlium villdsum H. B. et Kunth Nov. Gen. Amer.,

§ i. Xyldsteum Dec. 
Identification. Dec. Prod., 4. p. 333. ; Don’s Mill., 3. p. 446. 
Synonymes. Xylésteon Juss. Gen., 212.; Lonicera Reem. et Schult. Syst., 5. p.19.; Kyldésteon and

Elem., No. 219. ; the Fly Honeysuckle ; Hackenkirsche, Ger.; Hondsbezién orHondskarsen, Dutch. 
Derivation. From xylon, wood, and osteon, a bone ; the wood of L. Xylésteum being as hard as 
bone. 
Sect. Char.,§c. Pedicels axillary, 2-flowered, bibracteate at the apex. Berries, 
twin, distinct, or joined together more or less ; 3-celled in the young state; 
rarely 2-celled in the adult state. The limb of the calyx is generally de- 
ciduous, therefore the fruit is usually not crowned. (Don’s Miil., iii. p. 446.) 
Climbing or erect shrubs, with leaves never connate. In British gardens, 
they are of the easiest culture, and extremely hardy. 
A. Ovaries and Berries altogether distinct. Stems scandent. Flowers irre- 
gular. — Nintooa Dec. Prod., iv. p. 33.
