EDITORS NOTES. 



A new species of Dai/uiyiiiitia is described and une of Parnitirioii, also one of 

 the genus Afopos. 



After examining tlie anatomy of the HcUcarioii lowi of de Morgan, Mr. CoUinge is 

 ol opinion that it can not be retained in that genus. It is closely related to certain 

 species of Ariophiuita, and he suggests that it should be placed in the genus yUl^iria. 



The variety iiuirtciisi of Hciiiiplccta salniii^tiiia is also new, as well as the variety 

 iilohosiis, Fulton, of Anipliiiiivniiis pcrttkciisis, Fiilt.
