1. Torilis Japonica. De Cand. — Vide supra, p. 189. 



Hab. Loo Choo. — We scarcely see how this species differs from small specimens of the European T. 



Anthriscus.

1. Lonicera affinis ; tota glabra, ramis volubilibus, foliis petiolatis ovatis acutiusculis 

 integris supra lucidis subtus pallidis, pedunculis axillaribus petiolo fere brevioribus bifloris, 

 corollse tubo gracili folio duplo breviore. 



Hab. Loo Choo. — This is very closely allied in habit to L. chinensis, but the branches and leaves are 

 perfectly glabrous. In character it resembles L. longifiora, but there the flower is very long.

1. Gardenia radicans. " Thunb. Diss. Gard. n. 1. 1. 1. f. 1." De Cand. Prod. 4. p. 37 9. 

 Hab. Bonin and Loo Choo. — This differs principally from G. fragrans in the shape of the leaves.

2. Stylocoryne Webera. A. Rich Wight et Am. I. c. p. 401. — Cupia corymbosa. De 



Cand. Prod. 4. p. 394. 



Hab. Bonin. — Although the specimens be very imperfect, they obviously belong to this genus, and 

 apparently to the present species. 



1. Hedyotis (Diplophragma) midtijlora. Cav. Ic. 6. t. 574. f. 2 ? 



Hab. Bonin. — The only specimen in the collection has no flowers, but the remains of a few old capsules, 

 which enable us to refer it to the neighbourhood of H. Lawsonia and H. fruticosa ; our plant is con- 

 siderably branched, and is probably shrubby at the bottom of the stem. 



2. Hedyotis biflora. Brown, — Wight et Am. I. c. p. 413. — Var. ? parvifolia ; foliis 

 minoribus spathulato-oblongis subcoriaceis, radice subperenni. — H. ramosissima. Blume 

 Bijdr. p. 972 ? 



Hab. Loo Choo. — The largest leaves are only about three-fourths of an inch long, and two and a half 

 lines broad. The capsule and inflorescence are precisely as in the usual form. Had Chamisso and Schlech- 

 tendahl not described their Gerontogea racemosa with lanceolate and acuminated leaves, we should have rather 

 referred it to the Loo Choo variety of this species, than to Hed. {Oldenlandia) racemosa. Hedyotis biflora,
