_ PeratostyLis, a new genus of Cesalpinee very near Labichea; the 
species is named Petalostylis Labicheoides. 
Popocoma, a genus distinguished from Hrigeron particularly by its 
stipitate pappus. The only species yet known is Podocoma cunei- 
folia. 
LEICHARDTIA, a genus named after Dr. Leichardt, among the most 
enterprising of Australian explorers, whose narrative has been for 
two years before the public; the compliment of Mr. Brown will 
prove in the eyes of all botanists one even more graceful than the 
deserved one of the medal of the Royal Geographical Society 
of London awarded to him in i846. 
The species Leichardtia australis was originally found by Sir T. 
Mitchell, but with fruit only, in one of his journeys, and also in ~ 
his last expedition, where it is mentioned (Trop. Austr. p. 85) as 
Doubah ; the natives, we are informed by Sir Thomas, eat the seed- 
vessel entire, preferring it roasted. Captain Sturt observes, that 
the natives of the districts where he found it eat only the pulpy 
seed-vessel, rejecting the seeds. 
Jasminum lineare, Brown, Prodr. i. 521, is a very generally distri- 
buted Australian species. Dr. Lindley has, according to our au- 
thor, made of a very slight variety of it, his species Jasminum Mit- 
chellit (Lindley in Mitchell’s Trop. Austr. p. 365).

species, describing a new one. 
Eremophila Sturiti. We may remark, that a genus of Deseridaving 
Egyptian and Arabian Mantide is named Hremiaphila. The slight 
difference of spelling and sound, as well as the total distinction of 
the subjects, ought to prevent any change of name. Insects and 
plants are sufficiently well-marked without the mere alteration of 
a sound. 
Stenochilus longifolius, Br. Prod. i. 517, is identical with the recently 
described S. pubiflorus and salicinus. The same remark that ap- 
plied to the name of the last genus applies to this. Amongst the 
Coleoptera there is a well-marked genus Stenocheila, described by 
Prof. Lacordaire; there is no danger of an entomologist without 
this beautiful carabidous form, finding some day an Australian 
plant sent him by a correspondent in place of an insect desideratum 
to his cabinet.
