HuiLLA. — A little shrub, 1 to 3 ft. high ; stems crowded, csespitose, 

 erect or ascending ; leaves trifoliolate, with narrowly lanceolate 

 leaflets; flowers greenish, apparently dioecious; calyx 5-partite ; 

 petals 5 ; stamens 6, alternating with the petals ; anthers 2-celled, 

 bright-yellow ; disk large, covering the bottom of the calyx, toothed 

 at the margin, apiculate in the centre ; rudiment of the style scarcely 

 any. In rather dry wooded stations, at Catumba, Lopollo, where, in 

 March 1860, was the camp of the Monanos ; fl. 11 April 1860. No. 4429. 



The following ISTo., with rather oblanceolate leaflets and small 

 drupaceous fruit about 1 in. long (in the dxy shrivelled state), 

 apparently belongs to this species : —

PuNGO Andongo. — A shrub, U ft. high, with coriaceous leaflets, and 

 greenish-white flowers (not fully developed) ; perhaps a young shoot 

 from the stock of a tree or bush. In bushy situations, near Condo ; a 

 unique specimen, in young fl. March 1857. No. 4414. 



It differs from the type by less cuneiform and rather longer leaflets ; 

 perhaps it is but a glabrous and larger- leaved variety of R. pyroides 

 Burch.

Benguella. — A shrub, 3 to 5 ft. high, much branched ; with tri- 

 foliolate softly coriaceous leaves, and pale greenish-yellow flowers. In 

 bushy sandy situations, near the city of Benguella ; fl. and young fr. 

 end of June 1859. No. 4422. 



According to AVelwitsch's note he found the same species (as that of 

 No. 4-122) also near Mossamedes in the month of July ; perhaps he 

 alluded to No. 4423, herein mentioned under R. f/lntii/osiis. 



Welwitsch's specimens differ from Burchell's type in the branchlets 

 being never spinous and the leaves not quite glabrous.
