* This fine creeper occurs abundantly on the shore by the race course of Macao in China, 

 occupying the place of the C. Soldanella of the Scottish coast. — Edit. 

 + This plant occurs in Dane's I. China. — Edit. 



t This plant is also a native of China. I have found it abundantly on a rocky point Wi 

 •f Dane's Island village, Whampoa, and also on the opposite side of the river Tigris. The 

 correspondence of the Flora of Malabar and China is very striking, but the present cata*- 

 logue shews that the earae observation does not apply to the Concan coast.— Edit.
