106, Plants Africans rariores. J.P'ri'ntz, 



* 1760, 



Of all the quarters of the globe, no one dif- 

 plays fuch luxury ^nd variety in the produdlion 

 of plants as fouthern Africa ; from whence the 

 European gardens have derived their mod fviperb 

 and ornamental fpecies. This catalogue contains 

 the defcription of a century of the moft rare^ fome 

 entirely new, and others before imperfe6lly noticed. 

 It was drawn up by the author from an infpeflion 

 of the plants themfelves, in a colledlion, fent from 

 the Cape of Good Hope \ with a view of which Dr. 

 Laurence Burman gratified Linn^us, when he paid 

 him a vifit in the fummer of 1760. Extremely 

 different as the plants of the Cape are from thofe of 

 Europe^ many of the latter neverthelefs thrive well 

 in that climate. The author has prefixed a lift 

 of 70 kinds, which occurred in looking over this 

 eolleftion. He concludes this paper with a. lift of 

 Afrkan plants, as an Appendix to the i%r^ Ca^ 

 $enfis^ N*' g5, before publiflied in this colle6tion. 

 It comprehends near 200 fpecies from Oldenland^s 

 Herbarium^ made in 1695. Mr. Pnte's catalogue 

 is yet of ufe, as being referred to from our author's
