identity of the two plants; by the laft orthopetala has been 
adduced as a fynonym to contamtuata, although a very diftin& 
fpecies with a cyathiform corolla nearly three times longer, 
and is the fame with the fpecimen preferved in the Bankfan 
Herbarium, under the name of uffulataz. We have little or 
no doubt, but that the anguflifolia, No. 735 of the prefent 
work, is a mere variety of contaminata diflering only in fize, 
and that it fhould along with Ayacinthoides be arranged under 
that {pecies. SNS: 
Our plant is a native of the Cape of Good Hope, from 
whence it was imported by Mefirs, Cuanpier and Buckine- 
HAM, Vauxhall-Road. Blooms in May. We fufpe& it to be 
the fame with the fragrans of the Botanift’s Repofitory ; which 
is at all events a diftiné& fpecies from the fragrans of Jacquin 
and WitupENow. G,
