character to consider. Gilg figures and describes the follicles of his ,S'. grandi- 

 fiorus as perfectly smooth. Now, Mrs. Monteii'O says in her book '* Delagoa Bay,'* 

 164, that there are two species of Slrophanthns in Delagoa Bay. The follicles of 

 one arc much sonf]:ht for, so that " they disappear most mysteriously when ripe, those 

 of another species hein^^ left unnoticed," and in a letter to Sir W. T. Thiselton-Dyer 

 she nh?ervcs that the latter species had rather smaller and rougher follicles. She 

 actually sent two kinds of follicles to Kew, one very rough with numerous lenticels, 

 the other smooth, like that figured by Gilg on Plate vii. of his monograph. She 

 further suggests that the plant raised at Kew and figured in Bot. Mag. t. 7390 (the 

 real basis of IS- pelersianus var. grandijlorus) was the one with the rough follicles. 

 Under those circumstances I consider it more expedient— quite apart from the 

 (jnestion of priority — to use the name *S'. verrucosus instead of the ambiguous 

 S. grandiflonis.
