inclined to consider it as the male oUacqams Frotea fusci- 

 Jlora already noticed. 



Leucadendron. 



Conocarpodendron ; folio tenuissimo, angustissimo, sa- 

 ligno ; cono calyculato. Boerh. Lugd. Bat. 2, p. 203, c. tad. 



This is probably a male plant, notwithstanding the figure 

 of a ripe cone is given at the bottom of the plate ; the 

 separate fruits of some of Boerhaave's figures belonging 

 decidedly to very diflerent species. It may be the male of 

 Leucadendron adscendens.

 218] There is no means of determining the genus of this 

 plant, but it is rather more probably a Leucadendron than 

 belonging to any other. 



Leucadendron ? ? 



Conocarpodendron ; acaulon ; folio rigido, nervoso, ob- 

 longo, latiori ; cono fusco ; semine oblongo, in medio quasi 

 excavato. Boerh. Lugd. Bat. 2,jo. 201, c. tab. 



I know not what to make of this. If the strobilus and 

 nuces at the bottom of the plate really belong to it, it must 

 be referred to Leucadendron, and will stand near L. retusum 

 or Jj. plumosum ; but there are some circumstances both in 

 the figure and description which render this very doubtful. 

 Thunberg refers it to his Protea strobilina, but the descrip- 

 tions by no means agree. 



Leucadendron ?

This, according to Boerhaave, is his Conocarpodendron, 

 &c. 2, p. 197, c. tab. which I have considered as the 

 female of Leucadendron squarrosum.
