Tab. 10. " Having lately been favoured with some specimens of Pines, by William Strick- 

 land, Esq. of Yorkshire, who collected them in America, I am enabled to correct an error I have 

 committed m the sixteenth plate of my work, where I have figured a cone of a new species, as be- 

 longing to Pinus Taeda. I was led into this from receivinc: it with the branch there fio-ured from 

 America, and understanding at that time that they were from the same tree. Having now received 

 a branch belonging to the cone gathered by Mr. Strickland himself, the leaves of Avhich are shorter 

 and broader than those of Pinus Pumilio, and terminating in a very sharp spine, sufficiently distin- 

 guishing it from all other species, I shall call it, from the peculiar spines on the cones, Pinus pun- 

 gens, Jbliis geminis hrev'ibus acutis, strohilis ovato-conicis\ aculeis squamarum elongatis suhulatis: 

 siiperioribus incurvis: inferioribus recurvis. 



A figure of a branch, with male flowers, I hope to be able to give at some future period. Mr. 

 Strickland found large forests of this Pine on the summit of the Blue Mountains, on the Frontiers of 

 Virginia and N. Carolina. 



From the cones he brought home he was only able to raise one tree, which is now growing at 



F I 



his seat In Yorkshire, above six feet high, and 1 have no doubt It Is the only one at present in Eng- 

 land." Annals of Botany, vol. ii. 108. * 



In Tab. 21, the cone d, d. with Its dissections are now given from authentic specimens brought 

 home by Dr. Roxburgh, instead of those which were figured before by mistake, and which belong 

 to another species not yet described; therefore in page 20, lines 13, 14, for " ovatl parum incurve' 

 Sec, &:c. read " ovato-conici, squamarum apices elongatl, obtusi, recurvi." 



Tab. 34. Tinus lanceolata, has been coloured, and an additional branch given, from a fine 

 drawing at the India House, sent to their Museum by the Company's Botanical Draughtsman at 



Canton. 



Tab. 37, bis. Pinus Cednis, taken from a fine tree In the Royal Gardens at Kew. 



Tab. 38. Fi7ius Bammara. For the additional specimens now represented, I am obliged to 

 Sir Joseph Banks, who received them from Amboyna. They were sent home in spirits by Mr. 

 Christopher Smith. The plate is coloured from a plant growing in the Royal Garden at Kew. It 

 will readily be perceived that this tree must form a new genus.

* Since the above was written, I have raised several young plants from the cones given me by Mr. Traser.
