What we said about the stamens of F. Albertisii (Verb. 231) was a mistake 

 They are always inserted in the middle of the corollatube. The type-specimen of 

 F. Albertisii differs indeed from that of F. spleniida. However, there are so much 

 transition-forms between these two extremes, that we certainly are justified to com- 

 bine the two species.

We discovered (in specimens, cultivated in the Botanical Gardens of Buitenzorg), 

 that opposite and ternate leaves occur on the same plant. There is, therefore, no reason 

 for making 2 varieties.
