By Spencer te M. Moors, B.Sc., F.L.8. 
A sma but valuable parcel of plants recently sent to the 
National Herbarium by Mr. J. Burtt Davy, Government Botanist, 
Pretoria, has yielded five of the six novelties yer in the 
following paper. For the sixth—a Helichryswn—the Herbarium 
is ee o Mr. E. R. Sawer, of the Rhodesian Aghieultural 
Departme 
It is “a be hoped that both these er will continue the 
work begun under such favoura ble auspic Mr. Davy especially 
far but little known, and the Ermelo District of the Transvaal 
bounding it on the west. The flora of Swaziland is an interesting 
combination of the floras of the Transvaal, Natal, and southern 
Tropical ip! — is probably the southern — of several tropi- 
cal species, terocarpus erinaceus. I have added a few of 
the more ihesiieties of Mr. Davy’s plants wiittlk are not new.

Differs ‘soit the type by reason of its narrow leaves, smaller 
calyx-lobes, and corolla only puberulous outside. Possibly a dis- 
tinct species.
