Mr. Scott-Elliot’s excellent specimens in flower and fruit enable us 
to furnish a satisfactory figure of a very interesting plant, of bien 
the inadequate material of M. Heudelot has long beenin this Herbarium. 
Its nearest ally is a plant collected by M. Soyaux on the Gaba { (No. 
0), which ni in its obovate, narrowly-cordate- img Pow 
pubescent beneath (B. mirabilis, Baker MSS. in Herb. B. 
Codonanthus, Dake? (Prevostea africana, Benth., Codonanthus ! ”? -alierni. 
folia, Planch., in this work, t. 796), is also nearly related, but 
nown to us in fruit. I leave this plant and its allies in Breweria,
