MACLOSKIE: REVISION OF FLORA PATAGONICA. 283 



B. OBTUSIFOLIUS Ktze. 



Should be deleted, being identical with B. ccespitosiis (Phil.) Speg. 

 D. 



B. (DASYCLADOS) PYGM/EUS Ok. 



Should be deleted for its identity with B. ccespitosus. 



P. 874 : 



MACRACH^ENIUM Hook. f. 



M.foliosum is to be deleted, being a synonym of the next (fide D. 

 and Sk.). 



M. gracile Hook, f., occurs also in S. Chili and W. Patagonia. 



P. 875 : 



NASSAUVIA. 

 P. 877 : 



N. ABBREVIATA (Hook. & Arn.). 



Also in S. Patagonia, Territory of Sta. Cruz, Rio Sta. Cruz and Rio 

 Chico. The specimens from the mouth district of Rio Chico are erron- 

 eously referred by Macloskie to Nassauvia subspinosa Phil.; near Lago 

 Argentine; near Lago Viedma, in the mountains (about 400 m.) ; the 

 mountains between Lago Viedma and Laguna Tar up to about 900 m.; 

 in the mountains by Rio F6siles, about 850 m. 



N. ABBREVIATA var. SUBSPINOSA '(Phil.). Macl., p. 877. 



Without description. Macloskie may have supposed this to be identical 

 with Philippi's species N. subspinosa (of p. 884) ; but this species is, in 

 my opinion, not to be distinguished from N. abbreviates (Hook. & Arn.), 

 and hardly worthy the rank of a variety. D. (Delete both var. and 

 species N. subspinosa. G. M.) 



P. 878 : 



N. CANDOLLEI Macl. (Panargyrus lagascce DC., 1838). 

 "Unknown to me." D. 

 P. 879 : 



N. DARWINII (H. & A.). 



Also in S. Patagonia, not rare in the tableland by Rio Sta. Cruz, and 

 Arroyo Scheuen, and Rio Chico. At Killik-aike on Rio Gallegos.
