MACLOSKIE : REVISION OF FLORA PATAGONICA. 153 



A. MACROSTEMON Hook. fil. Macl., p. 480. 



According to Philippi Cat. Plant. Chil. identical with A. adscendens Vahl. 

 A. pinnatifida Ruiz et Pav. vice 



A. MULTIFIDA Hook. fil. Macl., p. 481. 



Includes A. trifida (fide Skottsb. & Bitter). Approaching subspecies 

 multiglomerulans Bitt. (fide Bitter). 



Patagonia in all its length, in the steppe near the forest. 



A. MYRIOPHYLLA Lindl. Macl., p. 481. 



According to Philippi Cat. Plant. Chil. synonymous with A. pinnatifida 

 Ruiz et Pav. 



A. NUDICAULIS Alboff. Macl., p. 481. 



Should be deleted, being identical with A. adscendens Vahl. 



A. OVALIFOLIA R. & P. Macl., p. 481. 



Is nearly as A. adscendens; but has gynaecium dissimilar; stamens with 

 smaller anthers, only half a mm. in breadth. Occurs at Navarino I. 

 (Skottsb.). Also in W. Patagonia, but not outside the beach forest. 

 (Dusen). 



Var. chamanthera Bitter is A. ovali/oHa, but with exceedingly small 

 anthers (fide Skottsberg). 



A. PARVIFOLIA Phil. Macl., p. 481. 



Should be struck out as an independent species. It represents only a 

 small-leaved form or variety of A. lucida Vahl. 



A. PHILIPPII Dus. Macl., p. 482. 

 Should be deleted, being identical with A. cuneata Hook, et Arn. 



Add A. pinnatifida R. & P. (Vide Skottsberg & Bitter; found by 

 Scott Elliot at Temuco, Chili; also subsp. tomentillicupola Bitt.) 



A. PCEPPIGIANA Gay. Macl., p. 483. 



Macloskie's statement of its occurrence in S. Patagonia is certainly 

 wrong. The specimen thus named belongs to A. sericascens Bitt. 

 Add A, sericascens van sexjuga accedens (fide Bitter).
