5. L. orchioides Ait. Flats and slopes to about 1,000 feet, 

 common ; 8-10. Very variable in colour, usually pale yellowish- 

 white. Beyond Simon's Town a white-flowered form only is found. 

 A slate-grey form is common in woods about Wynberg, and a deep 

 purplish-blue rarely on Devil's Peak. A bright deep yellow form at 

 Smitswinkel Bay may be distinct. In all colours, one-leaved forms 

 are frequently found. 



6. L. glaucina Jacq. Heathy downs and under shrubs, occa- 

 sional ; 8-9. Claremont ; near Wynberg. Possibly mistaken else- 

 where for L. orchioides, from which it is chiefly distinguished by 

 its larger more ringent perianth. 



7. L. contaminata Ait. Damp sandy flats, rare; 9-10. Fish 

 Hoek ; Eondebosch. 



8. L. pustulata Jacq. Dry sandy places near the sea, locally 

 common; 9-10. Sea Point; Kamp's Bay. 



9. L. unifolia Jacq. Dry sandy places, locally frequent ; 9-10. 

 From Fish Hoek southward. The broad-leaved var. Rogersii is 

 occasional, near Maitland; " Simon's Bay," Wright; " Kamp's Bay," 

 EcMon and Zeylier. A white-flowered form with pedicels about 

 1 line long and broad leaves (Wolley-Dod, 3634) is frequent at 

 about 2,000 feet on west slopes of Orange Kloof. 



10. L. isopetala Jacq. Damp sandy flats, rare; 12-1. " Nord 

 Hoek," Milne. Found by us at Vygeskraal, but not seen within 

 our limits. 



11. L. mediana Jacq. Shrubby places and open flats, rare ; 10. 

 Near Eondebosch, Bolus, 4829 ; " Yzer Plaat, near Salt Eiver," 

 Zeyher. 



Drimia media Jacq. Dry hill and mountain slopes, fre- 

 quent ; 2-3. 



2. D. pusilla J'acq. Flats, rare; 3. Eapenburg ; Eosebank, 

 Bolus, 3923. 



3. D. elata Jacq. Flats and dry mountains, rare ; 3-4. Hills

Dipcadi hyacinthoides Baker. Hillsides, locally common ; 8-10. 

 Three Anchor Bay ; Signal Hill. 



Albuca major Linn. Hills and sandy flats, frequent ; 9-12. 



2. A. minor Linn. Similar situations and apparently somewhat 

 commoner, but we cannot draw a line between the two ; 9-12. A 

 bright yellow-flowered plant with 6 perfect stamens, and sweet- 

 scented, occurs on Kalk Bay hills {Wolley-Dod, 2372), and at Lion 

 Battery. It is no doubt a distinct species, but our material is 

 insufficient to describe from. 



3. A. Cooperi Baker. " Sides of Table Mountain," Papiyc. 

 Not found by us. 



4. A. spiralis Linn. f. Sandy flats and slopes to 1,500 feet, 

 occasional but general ; 8-9. Common about Sea Point.
