contracted above calyx-tube. llen yellow. Carpels the colour 
with red. 
This is no doubt the plant figured by Burman, tab. 19, fig. 2, 
as Cotyledon foliis latis sinuosis in aculeum desinentibus, floribus erectis 
angustis, and therefore = C. mucronata Lam. It agrees well with 
the figure, except that the filaments are not so long. C. mucronata 
is one of the species unplaced by Harvey—it was only known to 
Lamarck from Burman’s figure. Its position is clearly close to 
C. orbiculata L. 
The specimens of this species in the Albany Museum Herbarium 
show how necessary it is to be careful not to limit species too

more flowers. The leaves become greenish and lose their waxy 
margin, which also becomes rounder at the apex, and less undulate.

measurements of the corolla, &c., in the fresh state are somewhat 
longer than those stated. 
Perhaps the same as the plant distributed by Ecklon & her 
as U, oblonga Haw. ‘ seca
