NOTE. 

 Since the preceding monograph was prepared, I have learned 

 from Baron Ferussac's very useful Journal, the Bulletin dcs 

 Sciences Naturcllcs, that Polystcmon has been already proposed 

 as a new genus, under the name of Belaiigcra, by M. Cambes- 

 sedes, whose appellaiion I willingly adopt. His Belangera to- 

 mentosa is evidently the same with my P. triphi/llus, and P.pen- 

 tapliylhts appears to be identical with B. speciosa of the same 

 distinguished botanist.
