depending on its smooth leaves, and its axillary nearly 

 sessile corymbi or fasciculi, which are niiicli shorter than 

 their subtending leaves ; Ijut even in the specimen con- 

 tained in the collection presented to the l]ritish ^luseuni 

 by Sir Thomas iMitchcll, the young branches, as well as 

 the pedunculus and pedicelli, arc covered wiPli similar 

 ])ubesccnce, and in the same degree as that of J. lincare ; 

 the specimens from l)amj)ier's Archipelago have leaves 

 equally smooth, but have the inflorescence of J. lineare ; 

 and I have s])ccimens of J. hneare in which, with the usual 

 ])ubescence of that species, the inflorescence is that of 

 Mitchellii. Among Sir Thos. Mitchell's collection at the 

 Museum, there is a Jasminum not noticed by Professor m 

 Lindley, -which, though very nearly related to J. lineare, 

 and possibly a variety only, may be distinguished by the 

 following character. 



Jasminuin {)nic rani hum) cinereo-pubescens, foUis ternatis ; 

 foliolis hmceato-linearibus, pedunculis axillaribus 1-3 floris, 

 covollae laciniis obtusis dimidio tubi brevioribus.
