THE PHANEROGAMS OF THE JUAN FERNANDEZ ISLANDS 22 1 



far into the primeval forests and reaching the high mountains in several places, 

 (no. 1 86). - Masafuera : Near the road to Las Chozas, c. 460 m, one shrub 

 seen; Q. del Blindado, c. 440 m, main' specimens in the woods. As some 

 specimens were quite stout, it is possible that the maqui was introduced before 

 1909, when the convict settlements were established, having escaped the atten- 

 tion of JOHOW and the writer. But the growth is extremely rapid. -- Chile. 



69. Modiola caroliniuna (L.) Moench. JOHOW 1. c. 107. — Masa- 

 ticrra: V. Colonial (DOUGLAS; JOHOW; SKOTTSB. no. [ 1 5). -- Masafuera: 



Near the shore on the east side (Jonow, SKOTTSB.). — Also in Chile. 



70. Anoda hastata Cav. -- Syn. A. fernandeziana Steud. in Flora 1856, 

 p. 437, ace. to REICHE 1. c. I, 239. — Masatierra: BERTERO. Never found 

 again. — Also in Chile (indigenous?). 



71. Malva parviflora L. - Johoyv 1. c. 118. Masatierra: Pto 

 Ingles; O. Juanango; Ties Puntas. — Santa Clara (JOHOW; SKOTTSB. no. 346). - 

 Also in Chile. 



72. Malva nicaeensis All. - JOHOW 1. c. 108. - - Masatierra: V. 

 Colonial (JOHOW; SKOTTSB. no. 181). — Also in Chile. 



yT,. Ly thrum hyssopifolia L. Johow 1. c. 97. — Masatierra: 



MosELEY; V. Colonial (Johow; SKOTTSB. no. 121); south side of island from 

 Plan del Yunque to Pta Larga, scattered. -- Also in Chile. 



74. Ugni Molinae Turcz. — Johow 1. c. 94. — Masatierra: V. Colonial 

 (JOHOW); especially on the lower slopes of C. Central (no. 190), and along the 

 path to Portezuelo, to about 200 m; two small shrubs near the SELKIRK 

 memorial, 590 m; Q. Villagra, rare. Probably introduced on purpose, as the 

 fruits are much appreciated in Chile, where the species is indigenous. 



75. Oenothera mollissima L. — O.propinqua Spach, Johow 1. c. 99. - 

 Masatierra: B. Cumberland, common in the east part of the colony (JOHOW, 

 SKOTTSB. no. 141). — *Masafuera: Q. de las Casas. — Indigenous in Chile. 

 I know no better name for this; after RElCHE's Flora it ought to be called 

 0. stricta var. propii/qua, but the stricta I have seen in herbaria seems 

 different and is not at all so pubescent. I am afraid that RElCHE's classifica- 

 tion, based on the length of the perianth tube, does not hold good. 



76. Sanicula liberta Cham, et Schlecht. — JOHOW 1. c. 101. — Masa- 

 tierra: REED, MOSELEY! On the slope of C. Salsipuedes, some specimens 

 in forest at the road-side, c. 350 m (no. 91). — Most likely introduced, as the 

 barbed fruits cling to the clothes. — Peru and Chile. 



77. Torilis nodosa Gaertn. — SKOTTSB. Stud. 17. — Masatierra: 

 Douglas! — Also in Chile. 



'■'78. Apium cfr. chilense Hook, et Arn. — Masatierra: Pta San Carlos 

 (no. 273). — One very imperfect specimen. RE1CI1E brought .1. chilense to
