Ord. umbelliferje. 



1. HYDROCOTYLE, Toum. 



1. Htdrocottle interrupta, MuM. 



Hab. Sandwich Islands : Oahu ; in marshes, near Honolulu. 

 Hawaii, in the district of Waimea. 



This was also collected in Beechey's voyage. It accords in all 

 respects with the plant of the United States : but the fruit, although 

 not emarginate, is by no means subattenuate at the base. I have seen 

 no specimens from the Pacific coast of North America: an allied 

 species, more nearly related to H. vulgaris however, is found in Cali- 

 fornia and Western Mexico. 



2. Hydrocotyle modesta, Cham. & Scldecht. 



Hab. Peru, near Callao. A monstrous state; the umbels foliose- 

 proliferous. 



3. Hydrocotyle Bonariensis, Lam. 



Hab. Brazil, near Rio Janeiro. Callao, Peru. The many-flowered 

 form : H. multiflora, Ruiz & Pav. 



4. Hydrocotyle quinqueloba, Ruiz & Pav. 

 Hab. Brazil ; in the Organ Mountains.
