Srerractinia Kuatriu (Rob. & Greenm.) Blake, Contr. Gray 
Herb. N.S. no. 52. 49 (1917). — Perymenium Klattii Rob. « 
Greenm. ! Proc. Am. Acad. xxxiv. 528 (1899). Aspilia Lehmannit 
Hieron. ! Bot. Jahrb. xxviii. 605 (1901), in part. — Hieronymus’s 
Aspilia Lehmannii was based on Lehmann 3282 and Triana 1363 
& 1365, the first of which is here selected as type. Lehmann 3282 
is also the type of Perymenium Klattii Rob. & Greenm. Hierony- 
mus noted the neutral rays of the species, but referred it to Aspilia 
with which it has no special relationship. Of the other two num- 
bers cited by Hieronymus, Triana 1363 is type of Stevracunia 
Trianae Blake, Journ. Bot. liii. 156 (1915), and Triana 1365 the 
type of S. oyedaeoides Blake 1. c. Both are quite distinct specifi- 
cally from S. Klattii.

607 (1901). Steiractinia grandiceps Blake ! Journ. Bot. liii. 157. t- 
539. f. 9 (1915). — Aspilia Sodiroi Hieron., of which I have not 
seen the type, is from character identical with my Stecrachna 
grandiceps; moreover Triana 1364, type of the latter species, has 
_ been referred to A. Sodiroi by Hieronymus (I. c. 1901). :
