Note: LINNAEUS in his Spec. Plant. I ( 1753) p. 19 has classified 

 the Verbena lappulacea L. under the Diandrae, however, in the second 

 edition he says „diandra?". Evidently he did not see the plant at all, or 

 he saw only a defective specimen. JACQUIN first, in his Obs. Bot. (1764) 

 p. 37, perceived rightly; „stamina perpetuo quatuor adsunt." According to 

 this, L's author's-name must be rejected. In spite of the wrong classification 

 by LINN., in this case it is almost sure, that both authors have meant 

 the same plant, because they quote the same synonyms.

2. Petraea arborea H. B. K., Nov. Gen. et Spec. II, 232 (1817); 

 see also, Verb. p. 371- mentioned from Columbia. 



Probably Forbes's cumminucation mentioned on p. 371 of our 

 dissertation is erroneous, both in determination and as concerns the author 

 of the species. What he saw, probably was P. volubilis L. A small tree, 

 cultivated in the botanical gardens of Buitenzorg, under the name of 

 P. arborea H. B. K. has subamplexicaulous leaves with an undulated mar- 

 gin; the inflorescences reach 12'/ 2 > * ne pedicels only 0.8 cM. This species 

 is not mentioned growing cultivated anywhere in these countries, except 

 in the botanical gardens. 



7. DURANTA L. (auctore H.J. L.) 

 Gen. PI. ed. 1, 367 (1737); Verb. 27.
