In Carolina, Walter, -j-. 1 observed in the vicinity 
of the Dismal-swamp in North Carolina, a species 
belonging to this genus, of which I have no .specimen 
in my Herbarium, and which probably may be the 
species alluded toby Walter. The leaves are elliptic 
and acute ; the flov/ers nearly sessile in the axils of the 
leaves, solitary or by two or three j the petals are long 
and acute, pale red 5 capsules long, prismatic.
