x. Iris tuberofa a . Tuberous Flower-de-Luce. 
| FOUND this at Smyrna. 
2. Cornucopias cucullatum b . The Horn of Plenty 
Grafs. 
I found this plant the 2 ad of March, in th c 
neighbourhood of Smyrna, towards Barnaba : this 
is one of thofe which I was very defirous of feeing- 
It is a grafs, in appearance quite different from all ^ 
its tribe. I was the more rejoiced to find it, as it h a 
been feen and defcribcd by very few botanifls in 
natural flate. It is to be found in the vales roun a 
Smyrna, and has not been met with growing wild & 
any other place ; nor has it ever entered any bot a ' 
nical garden. I have defcribed it well, gathered 
the roots of it, and ufed all my endeavours to ha v 
it lent to the botanical garden at Upfal, as P r °* 
feffor Linnteus had thought proper to charge & 
with this in particular.
