This species, from the Sandwich islands, does not exist in nature, as 
Dr Hillebrandt has kindly informed me. Gaudichaud, by mistake, 
described some Cordyline on which a Freycinetla was climbing.

bique,' p. 510, but according to the notes given it appears to me to be 
rather a true Pandanus.

By H. E. Hance, Ph.D., etc. 
In the month of June, 1852, I gathered on a heath near Newton 
Abbot, South Devon, an Erica, which I determined at the time, merely 
from the characters given in the « British Flora,' as E. mediterranea, L., 
under which name it has since lain in my herbarium. At that P e " 
I was mainly occupied with matters unconnected with Botany, ana p« ^ 
little attention, consequently, to the interest attaching to the suppo- 
rt

discovery. Coming across the plant some months back, howeve , 
was anxious to settle conclusively its claim to the name I had assigi 
it ; and my herbarium, though containing a number of the Contine
