R. Brown) foliacee, plane, late reniformes, convolute, una alteram 
obtegens magnamque partem radicule occultans. 
A distinct and handsome species, the varying size and shape of 
whose seeds are worthy of mention. The largest seed of the cell 
opened by me has a wing only 0-1 cm. in width; in other cases the 
wing is double as wide or even more. The size of the embryo, too, 
varies greatly, though perhaps some of these seeds would have been 
incapable of germination. The leaves and the long projecting valves 
of the capsules are the chief specific points of the plant. 
Some of Robert Brown’s specimens of this are also at the Kew 
Herbarium, having been presented to that institution after the death 
of J. J. Bennett.
