show unmistakable evidence of ng been written 
t a different and apparently earlier time than those 
descriptive of the species. It is possible that maturer 
reflection may haye convinced oe author that certain 
species (Ageratum conyzoides, Verbesina encelioides, 
Centaurea Melitensis) at first held to have been intro- 
duced since the discovery, and so marked in a list of 
introduced plants found among his papers, may in 
reality have been of earlier introduction; and that after 
making the final revision of the specific descriptions 
he forgot to alter this portion to correspond. If this 
view is correct the number of species introduced since 
the discovery should read 11, and for lines 27 to 30 
should be substituted the fellowing: Of 9 non-endemic 
species which existed before the discovery, 1, Adeno- 
stemma viscosum, is cosmopolitan in the tropics, 6, one 
Pg (now diffused over most tropical countries), 
one Gnaphalium, are American, and 
ange pitese and Centaurea, are of Old World origin, but 
und in some remote countries.
