LeUCOL-ENA peltigera. 



Foliis reniforni-lunatis grosse dentatis, involucri involucellique 



? 



segmentis lineari-subulatis striatis, lobis calycinis peltatis ! 



petalis spathulatis intus carinatis. 

 Hab. King George's Sound, N. Holland. Mr. Fraser. 



In the curious Leucola^na {XantJiosia^ DC.) rotundifoliai about 

 to be published in the Bot. Mag., the calycine lobes are thick 

 and fleshy, ovate and fixed by a very small point at the base : 

 but here they constitute 5 large, peltate, fleshy scales, to which 

 I know nothing similar in the whole order of UmbeWfer<^. The 

 species itself is probably very rare. The whole plant is glabrous 

 and glaucous. Moot perennial. Steyns about a foot high. 

 Involucels deeply divided into 3 unilateral segments.
