Senecio Species apparently undescribed, but material 
insufficient. Vic. Cochabamba, 1891 (961). 
Barnadesia polyacantha, Wedd. Chlor. And. i. 13. Vic. La Paz, 
10,000 ft., 1890 (718).— Rusby 1552 and 1553. 
Mutisia Orbignyana, Wedd. Chlor. And. i. 22. Vic. La Paz, 10, 
000 ft., 1889 (68), and Talca Chugiaguilla, April, 1890 (816). 
Also in Herb. Kew from La Paz by Pentland, fide Britton. 
Mutisia viciefolia, Cav. Ic. v. 62, t. 490 (?). Vic. La. Paz, 10,000 
ft. 1889 (78).=Mandon 7, not Matthew, Peru, 457. It seems 
pretty clear that two species have been confused under this 
name. Mandon No. 7 is referred by Schultz-Bipontinus to 
this species, but does not agree with the figure given by La- 
marck, Ш., t. 690, Fig. 2. This figure agrees with the speci- 
men of Matthews above mentioned and that of Ensign Safford 
from Chicla. Without reference to the original figure and de- 
scription, or knowledge of the type, I cannot decide which 
specimens are correctly named. 
Mutisia hastata, Cav. Ic. v. 64, t. 494, ex descr. Vic. Cocha- 
bamba, 1391 (881). 
MuTISIA COMPTONLEFOLIA, sp. n. Shrub, the stem erect, much 
branched, the branches strongly сепсе, densely leafy, gla- 
brous; leaves 5-9 cm. long, 15-20 mm. road, narrowly 
lanceolate, the apex tapering but obtusish, the base tapering 
into a short, margined petiole, deeply pinnately- -lobed, the div- 
isions oblong-lanceolate, obtusish, serrulate, thickish, ‘glabrous 
th sides; heads terminating the short leafy branchlets; in- 
volucre lanceolate-cylindrical, 3-4 cm. long, 15 mm. road, 
glutinous, lanate, ovate, the outer scales acuminate and acute, 
the inner rounded; lowers exserted to the extent of 15 mm.; 
rays few, narrow, scarlet. 
Talca Chugiaguilla, April, 1890 (795) 
Chuquiragua oppositifolia, Gill. et Don, Phil. Mag. 1832, 392. Vic. 
La Paz, 10,000 ft., 1889 (138).=Rusby 1555 and 1556. 
Chuquiragua ferox (Wedd.) Britton, Bull. Torr. Bot. Club, xix. 266. 
Vic. La Paz, 10,000 ft., 1889 (96).=Rusby 1558. 
A plant apparently near Mutisia, but without 
more complete material even the genus cannot be certainly de- 
termined. Vic. La Paz, 10,000 ft., 1889 (66). Talca Chugia- 
guilla, April, 1890 (791).
