) # Dr, NE. Browa has kindly consulted the Bentham correspondence at Kew, 
which makes it evident that this author is responsible for the treatment of Gerardia 
in Hooker’s account of the plants of Drummond's collections. Also it seems evident. 
that the paper containing this was not published until early in 1836.
