His ill Clafs, Campaniformes, contains fome good orders, but 
not connected with one another, as the Mallows, Cucurbitacea: and 
Stellatre. Part of our Folliculacia: militate here ; others in the next ; 
Campanula and Ranunculus are placed with the Stellatac ; and there 
are feveral Species here that by no means fuit his claflical charafter. 
I'he oth^r orders are extremely mixed. 
2d, Infundibui-IFOrmes, of thefe the Primulse are tolerably 
well, and feveral of the Solanacei of our natural method; fome are 
in the lalt Clafs. I'he Ipomsea and Trachelium are totally fepara-

Verbafeum, and Hyofeiamus are divided ; and feveral of their Re- 
lations, as Mandragora, fee. are placed among the Campaniformes.

5th, Cruciformes; this is alfo extremely well ; though in the 
latter orders he has thruft inllypecoum, Chelidonium, Epimedium, 
Potomageton, and Paris.
