Hab. Coquimbo. — We have in our collection T. majus, (Feuill. Chil. v. 3. t. 8. tig-, super.,) from the 

 Horticultural Society, gathered at Coquimbo and Valparaiso by Mr. Macrae ; and from Mr. Bridges we have 

 received a new Chilian species, common in bushy places in the mountains near Valparaiso, and there 

 called Flor de Perdiz, which we propose thus to name and characterize : T. bracliyceras ; foliis peltatisectis, 

 segmentis 6-7 oblongo-obovatis integris sessilibus, petalis conformibus, calycis segmentis obtusis calcare bre- 

 vissimo obtusissimo. — The small size of the whole plant, particularly the flowers, and their short, thick, 

 obtuse spur, distinguish it readily from all the others. Mr. Cruckshanks informs us that this is the other 

 Chilian species, alluded to by Sweet, (Br. Fl. Gard.) under T. tricolorum, which has been introduced by 

 him to our gardens, but no description of it has yet been published.
