Althouo-h we have no fruiting specimens from Soath Africa yet 



grou 



which my coUeagae Mr. Brown, finds amongst the interesting collec- 

 tions presented tS the Royal Gardens by Dr. Holub, the determination 

 of which has recently occupied bim, witb mrth American specimens 

 of which we have an ample series. 



• The occurrence of this little genns in regions so_ far apart as 

 Mexico, the Andes of Mendoza, and South Africa, is not new to 

 botanists, and now the interest of the case is heightened by Ur. 

 Holub's discovery of a second South African species actually con- 

 speciac with a North American one. The old Cape species differs 

 from this in its bipinnatipartite, narrowly segmented, almost mnscoia 

 It-'aves. It is figured in Ic Plant, t. 586.~D. Oliver.
