CHEVALLIERA OECHMEA) VEITCHII. 
This is a very fine new Bromeliad, discovered and sent to me from the United States of Colombia by 
5ny collector, Mr. Shuttleworth, in 1874, and again found and sent by my collector, Mr. Carder, in 
1875. Its flowers are produced in a dense oblong head, each subtended by a squarrose bright scarlet 
horny-toothed bract, the rich colour of which renders the plant highly attractive. Sepals lanceolate- 
deltoid, bright scarlet in the lower flowers of the head, white in the upper ones. This new plant has 
been also sent from the United States of Colombia by Mr. Wallis, and lias been described and admirably 
figured in the Botanical Magazine for November, 1877, tab. 6329. Mr. Shuttleworth, however, says 
that in its native habitat the flower-heads are fully double the size of the one figured, and present a 
most effective appearance, hence doubtless the reason that three collectors were struck with it and sent 
it home. 15s. and 1 guinea.

COFFEA LIBERICA. 
This new species of Coffee has been introduced from Liberia, on the West Coast of Africa. It is a 
fldant of the highest commercial importance, and in all probability the most valuable economic intro- 
duction of the present century. 
It is of robust and vigorous growth, with large coriaceous leaves, which in form are elliptic-obovate, 
oblong and shortly acuminate. The flowers are produced in axillary clusters in great profusion. The 
berries of this Coffee are much larger than those of C. arabica, and the plant much more productive, 
added to which it produces large crops at a low elevation, where C. arabica could not be successfully 
cultivated. J 
From these and its other desirable characteristics, this 
attention in all the Cofl'ee-growing countries of the world. 
new species is now attracting considerable 
Price on application.

CORYNOSTYLIS HYBANTHUS ALBIFL'ORA. 
The genus Oorynostylis belongs to the family of the Violets. The present species was found on 
the banks of the Amazon. It is a remarkably free blooming plant, of a trailing or climbing habit, 
bearing ovate-acuminate leaves, and lovely white horn-shaped or trumpet-shaped flowers, about 
two inches m length, suspended on long thread-like poduncles. These interesting flowers, taken in 
profile, present the appearance of some long-spurred Tropteolum, while on the front view they bear a 
resemblance to those of a gigantic Violet. For illustration, vide page 18. 10s. 6(7.
