SPICILEGIA FLORE SINENSIS. 297 
comparison with Mr. Hancock’s Ning-po specimen, identified by 
Maximowicz (Ad. fl. As. or. cogn. mel. fragm. 7), proves that my 
S. Bullockti, described in the first aogacwtion of these ‘ Spicilegia,’ 
must be reduced to this. As, like some species of Smilax, the 
plant iicsacents whilst the leaves are still quite immature, it is not 
et to match flowering and fruiting specimens. A capital revision 
of the species of the M alay Archipelago has been given in Prof. 
a mel s posthumous work ‘ Illustrations de la flore de l’archipel.

characterised by DeCandolle (Prodrom. = hal nat. regn. ve,

It has been found recently in the Tie bay mo s (Osten- 
Sacken & Ruprecht, Sertum Tianschanic. 42). te stated by the 
late Dr. Ruprecht, the legume is not moniliform; though turgid 
over the seeds, and compressed between, there is no constriction, 
e two margins being quite even, and when soake d in boi 
water, the legume is anfractuose, as he describes it, or in inclined to 
Fischer’s species, it must be new.
