Fam. 23. FAGACE,E. Macl., p. 325. 



NOTHOFAGUS Blume. 

 N. MONTAGNEI (Hombr. et Jacq.) Reiche. Macl., p. 328. 



A doubtful species ; perhaps it represents only a form of the rather 

 variable TV. antarctica (Forst.) Oerst. 



Page 328 : Nothofagus procera occurs at Neuquen. 



Page 328, line 4 from below, P. pumilio, should be Nothofagus pumilio. 

 It is not N. antarctica (fide Skbg.). 



P. 329, line 4 from foot: Nothofagus dombeyi occurs also in N. Pata- 

 gonia, Territory of Neuquen. 



Add Macl., p. 330: 



N. OBLIQUA Mirbel. 



Leaves elliptical or ovate, obtuse, irregularly duplicate serrate, pilose 

 on the nerves, both sides ; male flowers with perigonium broad, campanu- 

 late, sinuate-lobed ; anthers obtuse, larger than filaments, apex pilose. 

 Fruit ovoid, scales ovate-lanceolate, not spreading, but apically excised 

 or entire or toothed. 



Occurs in Chili, North Patagonia, in Territory of Neuquen (but not in 

 W. Patagonia nor at Magellan, nor in Fuegia. Dusen.). 



N. PROCERA (Poepp. et Endl.) Oerst. Macl., p. 328. 

 Not in Patagonia. 



N. ALPINA (Poepp. et Endl.) Blume. Macl., p. 331. 



Is to be deleted ; not in Patagonia. According to Reiche, identical 

 with N. procera.
