To the character should be added : Corolla with roundish tomentose twin appendages or 

 elevations at the tliroat, alternate with the stamens. These in 

 C. Cor6nopus are large and very protuberant, densely tomentose, and the corolla is 

 greenish-white, not "yellowish." In the two other species they are smaller and less 

 conspicuous.

Page 329, under DIANTHERA, add: 

 JacobInia neglecta, Sericograpliis neglecta, Oersted, a native of the Mexican coast-region, 

 has been received, through P. J. Berckmans, in living specimens from Florida, where it is said 

 to be spontaneous. It is somewhat shrubby, with oblong-lanceolate or broader and acumi- 

 nate leaves, flowers (inch and a half long) secund, in naked triple spikes on a slender axillary 

 peduncle: calyx and bracts short : corolla light brick-red and narrowly tubular : connective 

 of the anthers broad enough to refer the plant to Dianthera, the slightly higher and larger 

 cell (or rather the connective) apiculate.

 As to the derivation of the name, Lemaire, in Flore des Serres, June, 1846, has happily sug- 

 gested that Vahl formed the latter part of the word from rap<peiSs, crowded or dense, and 

 wrote Stachytarpheia, and that the i was mistaken for a t by the printer.
