154 PATAGONIAN EXPEDITIONS : BOTANY. 



PULVINATA Ok. - Mad., p. 493. 



Should probably be deleted ; seems to be identical vf\i\iA. ccespitosa Gill. 



A. SPLENDENS Hook, et Arn. Macl., p. 484. 



Its occurrence in Fuegia and S. Patagonia is very doubtful. My own 

 statement of its occurring in E. Fuegia refers to A. integerrima Gill. 



Also a form of Accena with narrow leaflets and more acute teeth ; 

 probably A. subglabrescens Bitt, at Punta Arenas. D. 



A. TENERA Albofif. 



Professor Skottsberg adds the following characters: Flowers over 3 

 mm. long; receptacle covered with peculiar, pearl-beaded, yellow hairs. 

 Perigonial leaves broad-oval, to nearly circular, fleshy, red. Filaments 

 i% mm. long, extending above the stigma, whose disk is dark-red, and 

 broader than long. Fruit including the 4 spines measuring 4 mm. (The 

 spines are sometimes fewer, never more than 4.) Found also in South 

 Georgia. 



A. TRIFIDA Ruiz et Pav. Macl., p. 484. 



This species is certainly not found in S. Patagonia. It is, however, 

 difficult to say to which species Macloskie's statement refers. (See A. 

 pinnatifida R. & P., supra.) D. Or it may be A. miiltifida Hook. f. 

 subsp. quinquefida Bitt.
