DROLEA GLABRA.—In Journ. Linn. Soc. xi. 271 (1871), Mr. 
AW. Bennett described a plant which had previously been pub- 
lished by Choisy as Hydrolea glabra—a name which he rejected

had, however, already been published as H. glabra by Smith i 
Rees’s Cyclop. xxi., where he points out that Lycium capsular me
