Fenzlia of Mr Bentham was published in 1833 ; that of Endlicher (Atakta, p. 19. t. 17 et 18) in 1834; 

 so that our plant has the priority of name. It is but fair, however, to observe, that Endlicher considers it 

 only a species of Gilia {Atakta, t. 29), and has bestowed the name of Fenzlia on a genus of New Hol- 

 land plants, which, with Olinia and Myrrhinium (Schott), form a small group intermediate between Merne- 

 cylea and Myrtacece.
