NEW HEBRIDES AND LOYALTY ISLANDS. 15 
flor, Nov. Hoill., p. 47) from New Caledonia, out of Pancher’s collec- 
tion; further, with a large leaved densely downy species, producing ter- 
minal somewhat racemose flowers from the Society Islands. This hand- 
some plant seems to have hitherto remained phytographically unnoticed; 
but the material before me is not really sufficient for absolute diagnostic 
definition, especially as we are aware that the genus Eranthemum g¢on- 
tains numerous closely allied forms, of which several have unduly been 
raised already to a specific rank. : 
RUELLIA REPTANS (G. Forster, Flor. Lnsul. Austral, 
Prodr., p. 44.) 
Santo. This plant was seen by Mr. Campbell to attain 2 height of 
five feet. He noticed the corolla to be whitish. Peduncles not rarely 
solitary. Flowers very few in terminal, almost fascicular cymes. Seeds 
about fourteen, dark brown, obicular-ovate, smooth, slightly turgid, about 
two-thirds line long. 
SoLanum MILNE1 (Seemann’s Fournal of Botany, 1863, 
page 210.) 
ERAMANGA. The specimens collected represent a small leaved 
variety. 
ASPERIFOLIAE. 
Corpia Myxa, (Linné, spec. plant, 273.) 
Tana, on hills. Height to fifteen feet. Flowers white. Not previ- 
ously recorded from the New Hebrides—thus, like many others of Mr. 
Campbell’s plants, new from there. : 
LABIATAE. 
Ocimum sanctum (Linné, Janizss., p. 85.) 
Santo. Three feet high. Flowers purplish, according to Mr. 
Campbell. This is the first record of this and the following plant from 
Polynesia. « 
Ocimum BasiLicum (Linné, spec. plant. 883.) 
SANTO and EFATE. «This species has also been found in Feegee by 
Dr. Seemann, but is mentioned in his work as O. gratissimum. Probably 
the latter occurs in Feegee also, along with O. Basilicum, like in many 
parts of India, and both may have been mixed in Seemann’s collection. 
‘A small flowered variety was gathered in Madagascar by Dr. Meller, 
according to specimens communicated by Sir Henry Barkly. The limits 
of most species of Ocimum have not yet been accurately ascertained. 
CoLEUS SCUTELLAROIDES (Bentham in Wallich plant. Asiat. 
rarior., 11, 16.) 
SANTO.
