There seems to be little doubt that Lonroiro and Blnme indepen- 
dently of each other gave this species the same specific name. YVjillich'a 
distribution of it under Colobroke's MSS. name spicata took place many 
years subsequently, and that narao must (although adopted by Dr. 
Masters) 1 think fall to the ground.
