tiful appearance, even on close inspection, from the pure 
white of the corolla, the golden yellow of the anthers 
and the crimson of the style. Dr. Alexander has sug-

FL. August. 
A shrub 10 feet in height: branches erect, compressed, 
somewhat sulcaled, ferrugineo tomentose. Leaves scat- 
tered, rather crowded at the ends of the branches, ovate, 
subcordale, acuminate, with the apex somewhat retuse, 
and the margin revolute and minutely and distantly den- 
ticulated, 5-nerved besides a marginal pair, glabrous 
above, hoary and ferrugineo-tomentose beneath : petiole 
subtrigonal. Thyrse terminal: peduncle compressed, 
subtetragonal, hoary and ferrugineo-tomentose : branches 
decussating, bearing three or more subsessile white flow- 
ers. Calyx 8-10-agonal, in shape like a Spanish Jar : at 
the base globular: throat produced and contracted: limb 
expanded, internally purple, marked in the centre with a 
radiating disk, with the rays 4-5 of a pale colour, the an- 
gles alternating with the divisions of the calyx : teeth 4-5, 
short, subulate, inserted externally below the margin. 
Petals 4, rarely 5, obovate, clawed, rounded at the apex. 
Stamens 8, rarely 10, declinate : anthers auriculated at 
the base, one-pored. Style declinate, curved : stigma 
simple. Berry globose, 6-(?) celled: seeds ovoideo- 
reniform. 
The mark on the inside of the calyx, resembles that 
observable in iieterotriciium tatens. I have met with 
only one plant of this species. The arrangement of the
