1112 ARBORETUM ET FRUTICETUM BRITANNICUM. 
The following species will probably be very shortly introduced, and, indeed, 
are perhaps already in a seedling state in the H. 8. Garden : — 
MM. lanceolatum. (B. lanceolatum Benth, Pi. Hart. p. 34. No. 269.) Pin- 
nate, with long slender leaves, and 13—17 leaflets, very spiny, and of a 
dark green. Mexico, on mountains, where it grows from 5 ft. to 6 ft. 
high. Considered the handsomest of all the Mexican species. (G. MZ. 
1840, p. 632.) 
w MM. angustifolia. (B. angustifolia Hartw. Benth. Pl. Hart. No. 270.) Re- 
sembles M. fascicularis, but is much smaller in all its parts. Leaflets 
5—7, light green, and very spiny. Mexico, where it grows from 6 ft. to 
8 ft. high, with purple fruit, sweet to eat. : ; 
« M. Hartwegii. (B. Hartwégii Benth. Pl. Hart. No. 272.) Pinnate, with 
11—15 leaflets, which are nearly double the size of those of M. Aquifo- 
lium, and of the same light green as those of that species. Mexico. 
Flowering in April. 
Aurantia‘cE&. Arb. Brit., 1st ed., vol. i. p. 395. 
a Livonia Lauréola Wall. Pl. As. Rar. t. 245., Royle Illust. vol. i. p. 343. 
The only species of this order found on the tops of cold and lofty moun- 
tains in the Himalayas, where it is for some months buried under snow. 
Raised in the H. 8. Garden from seeds received from Dr. Royle in 1841, 
and probably hardy enough to endure our winters against a wall. (G. M. 
184], p. 608.) 
HyPERIca‘cEE, Page 74., 
a Hyper’ricum rosmarinifolium Lam. Dict.; Tor. and Gray, vol. i. p. 159. A 
pretty narrow-leaved species, from Kentucky, where it grows 2 ft. high, 
flowering in July and August. (G. JZ, 1842, p. 13.) 
AcCERACEE. Page 78. 
+ A’cER levigdtum Wall. Plant. As. Rar. 2. p. 3. t.104.; Arb. Brit. Ist ed. 
p. 431. Leaves undivided, oblong, acuminate, smooth, and shining. 
Nepal, on high mountains, where it forms a tree 40 ft. high. Dr. Wallich 
thinks it may prove hardy in England. H. 8. (G. JZ, 1840, p. 632.) 
¥ A. célchicum Hartwiss. A very handsome and distinct plant, nearly allied 
to A. platandides Lobéléi; but with the lobes of the leaves more pointed, 
the bottom lobes lapping over the footstalk, their texture thinner, and 
their colour more glaucous than those of A. p. Lobélii, Abchasien; 
whence it was imported by Booth of Hamburg in 1838, and introduced 
into England in 1840. (G. Mf. 1840, p. 632.) 
* A. célchicum var. rubrum Booth MS. From the beginning of the season 
till late in autumn the leaves are of a bright pinkish purple. The bark 
is brownish, while that of the species is of a pea-yreen, like the bark of 
Negindo fraxinifolia. ; 
¥ A. campéstre. “ Add as Varieties: —“ A. c. rabris Booth : samaras red. A, 
c. heterocérpum: samaras variously formed.” 
¥ A. glabrum Torr. and Gr. Flor. 1. p. 207. A shrub found in the Rocky 
Mountains, with leaves nearly similar to those of the common currant in 
size and shape. Not yet introduced. 
¥ A. éripartitum Nutt. Torr. and Gr. Flora, 1. p. 247. A shrub found on 
the Rocky Mountains, nearly allied to the preceding species, and, like it, 
not yet introduced. 
¥ A. grandidentatum Nutt. Torr. and Gr. Flora, 1. p. 247. (? A. barbatum 
Dougi., not of Michx.) A shrub or low tree from the Rocky Mountains, 
et ae smaller than those of A. sacchérinum. Not yet intro- 
uced. ‘
