28 HORT. MAL. VOL. VI. 



Tab. 26. Bignonia Colais. Ham. MS. 



Quoted by the younger Linnaeus, and generally by other authors, for B. Chelo- 

 noides, but was considered by Dr. Hamilton to be a separate species. 



27. Sesbania ./Egyptiaca of Pers. W* fy A. JLschynomene Ses- 



ban of Lin. Roxb. 



Misquoted by Willdenow for Coronilla aculeata, and for Sesbania aculeata by 

 De Candolle, and the long pendulous legumes answer better to Alpinus's 

 figure, which Linnaeus has quoted for dE. Sesban. 



28. Apama siliuosa. Lam. A. dubia of Gmelin. 



Lamarck's knowledge of this plant was wholly derived from the Hortus Mala- 

 baricus, and it is most probable that Apama has been misprinted for Alpama, 

 and that the generical name was intended to be taken from Alpam, which is 

 Rheede's name. Plukenet has noticed its affinity with his Phytographia, 

 tab. 96, f. 7. 

 29. 



Quoted by the younger Linnaeus and others for Bignonia Spathacca, from the 

 description of which it materially differs, and Spathodea Rheedi is merely 

 another name for that species ; or if taken, as the name implies, wholly from 

 this figure, it should have been described to be octandrous. It is also mis- 

 quoted in the Hortus Britannicus for Spathodea longiflora of Ventenat, as sy- 

 nonymous with B. chelonoides. 



30. Helicteres corylifolia. Ham. MS. 



Quoted by Lamarck for his H. ovata, and by Linnaeus and most other Botanists 

 for H. Isoru. Dr. Hamilton, however, considered it to be a separate species ; 

 but, as the leaves of H. Isora vary considerably in shape, I much doubt 

 whether it is more than a variety.

g2 * > Bruguiera Rheedii. Blume. 



Quoted by Linnaeus and most other writers for Rhizophora gymnorhiza, and for 

 Bruguiera gymnorhiza by Lamarck; and it is plain that both B. Rheedii and 

 B. cylindrica were considered by Gaertner to be nothing more than varieties of 

 the West Indian R. Mangle. 



33. Bruguiera cylindrica. Blume. B. malabarica. Arnott. 



Rhizophora cylindrica. Lin. 



Dr. Arnott has given the name of B. malabarica to this plant, and retained that 

 of B. cylindrica for the Mangium digitatum of Rumphius, apparently under an 

 erroneous impression that Linnaeus had quoted the Herbarium Amboinense, 

 vol. iii. tab. 70, jointly with Rheede's figure for his B. cylindrica. It is the 

 Mangium minus, t. 69, that Linnaeus has quoted, and this Blume considers to 

 be the foregoing B. Rheedii. 



34. Rhizophora conjugata of Lin. Arnott. R. Mangle. Roxb. 



(not Lin.) R. apiculata. Blume. R. candelaria. D C. 



Misquoted by Linnaeus and most other authors for JR. Mangk, which is now said 

 not to have been found in the East Indies. 



35. Kandelia Rheedii. W.fy A. Rhizophora Candel. Lin. 



36. ^giceras majus of Gaert. Roxb. M. fragrans. C. Kcenig. 



Bruguiera obtusa. Denn. 



As pointed out by Mr. C. Konig it is the Rkisophora corniculata of Linnaeus.
