HORT. MAL, VOL. X. 55 



Tab. 67. Almania nodiflora of Brown. Wight. 



To the reference to this figure in Hooker's Journal, Dr. Wight has added 

 'pessime,' and Dennstedt has queried whether it may not be the Illecebrum 

 capitatum of Linnaeus. 



68. Emilia sonchifolia. D C. Cacalia sonchifolia. Lin. 



69. Sida radicans. Cavanilles. 



All Cavanilles's knowledge of this plant appears to have been derived from 

 Rheede, and, as suggested by Wight and Arnott, it may not improbably be a 

 variety of Roxburgh's S. glutinosa. 



70. Physalis angulata of Lin. N.Esen. 



Misquoted by Burman for the Linnean P.pubescens, and by Roxburgh for the 

 P. minima of Willdenow. 



71. Physalis minima. Lin. 



This figure has been quoted by almost every other author except Roxburgh for 

 P. minima, but it does not accord with the Linnean character ' pedunculis 

 fructiferis folio villoso longioribus.' 



72. Pedalium Murex. Lin. 



Dr. Hamilton has suggested that this may be a separate species, but it answers 

 very fairly to all the specimens of P. Murex that I have seen. 



73. Solanum incertum. Dunal. S. nigrum. Lour, (not Lin.) 



Linnaeus of S. nigrum says, ' In orbis totius cultis,' which habitat may have 

 misled Loureiro ; and this figure has also been mistaken by Martyn and Rox- 

 burgh for S, rubrum. 



74. Solanum Melongena Var. N. Esen. S. esculentum. Dunal. 



Misquoted by Lamarck for S. insanum of Linnaeus's Mantissa. 



75. Mirabilis Jalapa of Lin. Burman' 's Index. 



76. Croton polyandrum of Roxb. Ham. MS. 



Burman in his Index says that this is the Croton solanifolinm of the Species 

 Plantarum, p. 1426, and of the Flora Indica, p. 205, and there is no such 

 species in either of these works. Roxburgh's specimens of C. polyandrum, in 

 the shape of the leaves, answer better than his description to this figure. 



77. Pogostemon Heyneanum. Bentham. 



Quoted erroneously by Linnaeus in the Species Plantarum for Ocymumfrulescens, 

 which is Perilla Ocymoides of the Systema Naturae, by Lamarck for O. petio- 

 /are, and for Mentha perilloides by Willdenow. 



78. Achyranthes aspera of Lin. Burman. 



Burman has been followed by Linnaeus in the Mantissa, and in the Hortus Ke- 

 wensis, as well as most other works, in quoting this figure for A. aspera and 

 the A. obtusifolia, for which it is quoted by Lamarck, belongs to the same 

 species. Dr. Hamilton, however, doubted whether tab. 79 may not be the 

 Linnean A. aspera, and whether Roxburgh's A. aspera and the plant here 

 figured (unless they belong to the A.fruticosa of Lamarck) should not be ar- 

 ranged separately with the name of A. cadelaria. Linnaeus, to his reference 

 to Rheede, has added another to Rumphius, which I take to be erroneous, 

 and the latter may perhaps have misled Dr. Hamilton.
