HORT. MAL. VOL. VII. 33 



Tab. 22. Gnetum scandens. Roxb. G. funiculare. Smith. Thoa 

 edulis. Willd. 



Loureiro has not quoted this figure, but his Abutva indica is the same 

 species. 



23 . Combretum Wightianum . W. fy A . 



Misquoted by Dennstedt for Amyris Protium of Willdenow, i. e. Protium Java- 

 nicutn of Burman and De Candolle. 



24. Basella cordifolia. Lam. 



Quoted by Linnaeus, Gsertner, and Persoon, for B. rubra, and by Willdenow 

 both for B. rubra and B. cordifolia, and Roxburgh says that neither of these 

 are more than cultivated varieties of the Linnean B. alba. 



25. Curinila Rheedi. R. fy S. Reinera baypinensis. Denn. 



Lamarck, with whom the genus Curinila originated, has derived all his know- 

 ledge of it from Rheede. 



26. Connarus monocarpus of Lin. W. $ A. 



Dennstedt considered it to be the C.pinnatus of Cavanilles. 



27. Morinda umbellata of Lin. Denn. M. padavara. Jus*. 



M. tetrandra. Jack. 



De Candolle says that this figure is either M. tetrandra or M.parvifolia, and it 

 is probable, from the observation of Drs. Wight and Arnott, that they are not 

 specifically distinct. M. umbellata is rather an uncertain species, of which 

 there is not any specimen in the Linnean Herbarium, and this figure answers 

 much better to the description in the Flora Zeylanica than the figure of Rum - 

 phius, to which Linnaeus, in the Species Pluntarum, has referred. 



28. Paratropia venulosa. W. 8f A. Aralia digitata. Roxb. He- 



dera terebinthinacea of Vahl. ? R.fy S. 



29. Loranthus Loniceroides. Lin. L. coriaceus. Lam. 



Elytranthe Loniceroides of G. Don. 



Nearly all authors have quoted this for the Linnean L. lonicer aides, but Rheede 

 has both figured and described it to be polyandrous. 



30. Antidesma parasitica. Pothos pentandra. Denn. 



I have not met with any other reference to this figure, and Dennstedt's reason 

 for calling it a Pothos I am unable to discover. Poiret says, ' il est difficile de 

 rapprocher d'aucune des genres counus, a moins que ne soit des Loranthes 

 ou du Guis.' I have Professor Don's authority for its being an Antidesma, 

 and if so, it must be the male plant of a parasitical species, which is not else- 

 where described. 



31. Smilax zeylanica of Lin. Poiret. 



Quoted by Burman for his S. indica, which is described ' caule inermi ;' and is 

 not the S. indica of Duhamel, which Steudel has properly arranged as a va- 

 riety of S. zeylanica. By Dennstedt it is quoted with a query for the Linuean 

 S. China. 



32. Cynanchum Magale. Ham. MS. 

 Dennstedt says that it is the Periploca cordata of Lamarck.
