DovusTFuL OR TRANSFERRED SPECIES. 
M. Ascnensornit, Sch. Bip. in Koch, Wochenschr. vii. 407, collected 
by Aschenborn in Mexico (?), is described merely as having deltoid-ovate 
serrate leaves pubescent only upon the nerves and larger veins beneath ; 
the petioles thickened and pales straight. — Type in herb. Bot. Museum 
Berlin.

M. ciematipea, Hemsl. 1. c. 165. See synon. of VM. Karwinskit, — 
Sch. Bip. below. " 
M. crenata, Sch. Bip. in Koch, Wochenschr. vii. 407, collected by 
de Berghes in Mexico without locality, is described as having stout petl- 
oles and ovate crenate leaves 7.7 cm. long and 2.8 cm. broad, 3-nerved 
from above the shortly cuneate base and tomentose beneath; the pales 
straight-pointed. — No plant satisfactorily corresponding to this species 
seems to have been secured in recent years. 
M. eveeans, C. Koch, Wochenschr. vii. 408, Hemsl. 1. ¢. 165, of 
unknown country and characterized only as to leaf contour, must be most 
nearly related to if not identical with JZ pyramidata, Sch. Bip., from 
which so far as known it differs only in the absence of the inconstant 
petiolar appendages.
