Hab, Subtropical North America: South Texas. 
This species would be almost as well placed amongst the Coriacee near C. lineata, connecting the two series.

Hab. Tropical America: Jamaica, Guadeloupe, Bahamas. 
Nearly allied to C. virgata, but with much larger, fewer, and more coriaceous leaflets, which, however, 
are much more numerous than in C. lineata, which this species otherwise resembles. "There are three 
West-Indian forms in our herbaria—one with pubescent leaves and rather large sessile glands, another with 
glabrous leaves and small almost sessile and few glands, a third with similar glabrous leaves but the 
glands remarkably stipitate and rather numerous. 
311. ? C. REPENS, Vog. Syn. Cass. 60. Suffrutex humilis, molliter pubescens v. glabratus. 
Foliola 4-10-juga, oblonga, obtusa, sæpius mucronata, subsemipollicaria, costa subcentrali 
pennivenia; glandula sessilis y. subsessilis. Legumina patentia.—Fl. Bras. 171. 
Hab. Tropical America : Brazil, prov. Minas Geraes. 
A specimen from the Andes of Popayan in herb. Hook. appears to be a variety of this species, which 
may possibly not be distinct from the following C. cuneata; but the specimens are as yet insufficient to 
determine the point. 
312. C. CUNEATA, DO.! in Collad. Hist. Cass. 121. Habitus et stipule C. repentis. 
Foliola 4-6-juga, oblongo-cuneata, semipollicaria, supra glabra, subtus pubescentia, costa 
subcentrali lineato-pennivenia, basi tamen a latere exteriore sæpius 1-2-nervia ; glandula 
subsessilis. Pedicelli 1-3-ni, semipollicares, pubescentes. Sepala acuminatissima. 
Hab. Tropical America? A single specimen of uncertain origin in herb. DC.

licaria, costa subcentrali crebre pennivenia; glandula sessilis, depressa. Flores mediocres. 
Pedicelli brevissimi et legumina erecta, stricta, more C. patellarie et C. nigricantis. 
Hab. Tropical America: Brazil, prov. Minas Geraes and Goyaz; Bolivia, prov. Chi- 
quitos, Weddell; Lamas, Peru, Spruce. 
This may possibly be reducible to C. vestita, 
seen, and accidentally omitted in Fl. Bras. It agrees with 
gland is said to be urceolate and shortly stipitate. 
Vog. Syn. Cass. 60, Linnza xi. 711, a species I have not 
C. brachypoda in every respect except that the
