_ There are two species, and amongst the most splendidly 
coloured plants of the Flora of the Cape Colony, which Mr 
_ Harvey refers to his genus Aulaya. The one is the Orobanche 
 squamosa, (See our Tas. CDI.) of Thunberg; the other the 
_ 0. Capensis of the same author. The latter is the species here 
. figured, and the whole is ‘of an intense scarlet, relieved with 
_ Shades of a rich orange.” Both are parasitical, leafless, scaly 
and tuberous-rooted, nearly allied to our Harveya. This genus, 
_ 0n account of the structure, Mr Harvey is disposed to refer to 
4 Schrophularinee, rather than to Orobanchee, if the latter be 
-eally a distinct family from the former.—Our drawing was 
Made by Mr Harvey from recent specimens at the Cape.
