136 Analijsis of Periodical Works on Zoology and Botany. 



bosis, foliolis calycinis ovalibus oblisissimis, petalis limho or- 

 biculatis, ramis ancipitibus. Gwmera perpensa Willd.: the 

 concluding plate is No. 2377, and represents Geranium Wal- 

 lichianum, an interesting species fi'om the Himalaya moun- 

 tains of Nepal. " G. pedunculis elongatis bifloris, foliis 5-lobis 

 utrinque cauleque sericeo-villosis : segmentis lat^ cuneato- 

 ovatis inciso-dentatis, stipulis lat^ ovalibus obtusis, caule ad- 

 scendente angulato." 



The Botanical Register. No. 95. 



PI. 676. Va7ida teretifolia ,- Lmdley, Coll. 6. t. 6. Intro- 

 duced, we presume, to rectify some omissions and inaccuracies 

 which, it would appear, have found a place in the previous de- 

 scription of this plant. Passijlora albida, a new and delicate 

 species from Brazil. " P. foliis subrotundo-cordatis petiolo 

 bicalloso ; floribus solitariis pedunculo robusto longo aliquoties 

 brevioribus ; involucro foliaceo ante anthesin caduco ; calycis 

 carinis undulato-alatis ; operculo radiato ; columna inclinata ; 

 staminibus secundis." 



Cassinia spectabilis, Brown {Calca, Persoon); by a note 

 attached to this article, we are told that the Mel a stoma granu- 

 losa (PI. 671 of this work) is the same as Bhexia Fontainesii 

 of Humb. and Bonp. Crinum amahile, var. angustunt: this 

 latter name was made specific in Mr. Kerr's former remarks 

 on this genus ; but subsequent observations induce him now 

 to consider both as one species ; for ourselves, we incline more 

 to the former opinion of this gentleman than to his latter. 

 Acasia longissimd'oi Link. Enum., a singular New Holland 

 plant; AtJn-ixia capetisis, a new species from the Cape; but the 

 specific character is unaccountably omitted. This Number 

 concludes with PI. 682, Dichoresajidra thyrsijlm-a, a beautiful 

 plant, first described by Professor Mikan, one of the botanists 

 sent four years ago to Brazil by the Court of Austria. 



Sweet's Geraniacece. No. 37. 

 Two out of the four plates in this Number represent species, 

 one, the Pelargonium multiradiatum, of Sprengler ; the other, 

 P.pallens [Geranitim pallcns of Andrews). 



Loddiges' Botanical Cabinet. Part 69. 

 Among the plates in this part are accurate representations 

 of the Banana tree with an enlarged representation of its deli- 

 cious and very singular fruit.
