Masafuera: Skoti'SBERG 1908, ster. — Q. de las Casas, quite common 

 (fl.-fr. n / 2 17, no. 457 — f. fructibus alatis); Q. de las Vacas (fl.-fr. I0 /2 17. 

 no. 442 — f. non alata); Q. del Blindado, in the forest c. 440 m; Q. del Vara- 

 dero; on the precipice above Buque Varado, c. 1200 m. 



Fig. 18. Halorrhagis asperrima; a— f from no. 457: a two lower and b three upper leaves, 

 nat. size; c flower (petals and anthers removed), X 6,6; d sepal and e petal, X 20; f fruits, X 6,6. 

 g— p from no. 442: g two lower, h three upper leaves, nat. size; i flower on male and k on 

 female stage, X 6,6; 1 sepal and m petal, X 20; n typical fruits, o with trace of wings, pone 



of these seen from the top, all X 6,6. 



No. 457 and 442 are so unlike each other that I have been inclined to 

 bring them to different species. No. 457 is wholly green, the leaves are broader, 

 especially in the floral region, the branches thinner, the fruit mostly alate with 

 low, broad wings, see fig. 18 a — f. No. 442 is more or less tinged with antho-
