inferne in petiolum perbrevem attenuatis membranaceis, floribus paucis subumbellatis 
ramos terminantibus, pappo fulvo. 
Hab. Conception. — The leaves, though somewhat resembling in shape those of the preceding species, 
differ widely in their texture : the arrangement of the flowers is also very dissimilar. 
4. B. resinosa ; frutescens valde ramosa, foliis lato-cuneatis superne angulatis brevis- 
sime petiolatis coriaceis glabris, floribus terminalibus glomeratis, involucri foliolis pubes- 
centibus, pappo fulvo. — Humh. et Kunth, Nov. Gen. v. 4. p. 52. t. 323. 
Hab. Conception. — This, as far as we can judge from the specimens, appears to be a true Baccliaris. 
The pappus is tawny : leaves scarcely an inch long, broadly cuneate, truncated at the top, presenting a 
few angles in the upper half, and remarkably coriaceous. Kunth says that Lamai’ck’s B. cuneifolia is nearly 
allied ; Sprengel unites them. 
5. B. glutinosa; sulFruticosa, foliis lanceolatis 3-nerviis inciso-serratis glabris junioribus 
glutinosis glanduloso-punctatis, involucri foliolis margine laceratis. — Pers. Syn. v. 2.p. 425 ? 
— “ Chilca.” Feuill. Chil. v. 2. t. 37. 
Hab. Valparaiso. Mr. Bridges has likewise sent it. — Besides these species, we possess from Chili, 
gathered near the waterfall at the end of Almendral in Valpai-aiso, another species, which we cannot dis- 
tinguish from the B. articulata, Pers.

1. G. coarctatum ; foliis spathulatis adnatis margine undulato-crispis supra viridibus 
subtus argenteo-tomentosis, caule simplicissimo folioso, floribus glomerato-spicatis, involu- 
cro lucido glabro. Spr . — Willd. Sp. v. 3. p. 1886. — G. spicatum. Lam. 
HiVB. Conception. 
2. G. chilense; foliis utrinque argenteo-lanatis inferioribus spathulatis superioribus 
linearibus, floribus glomerato-spicatis, involucri foliolis nitidis acuminatis. — Spr. Syst. 
Veget. v. 3. p. 480 ? 
Hab. Conception. — We feel almost certain that this must be the plant gathered by Chamisso, and 
described by Sprengel, but the characters do not altogether accord. It is certainly, however, not the G. 
lanuginosum, Kunth, which has acuminated leaves.’ 
3. G. citrinum ; caule herbaceo erecto tomentoso, foliis lineari-lanceolatis acutis longe 
decurrentibus supra velutinis subtus albo-tomentosis, corymbis terminalibus, floribus 
glomeratis citrinis, involucri squamis oblongis obtusis nitidis. 
Hab. Conception. — This appears liable to considerable variation, the upper surface of the leaves being 
sometimes almost naked, and in other specimens densely velvety. It is about a foot and a half high. It is 
probably the Elichrysum, &c. of Feuill. Chil. v. 3, t. 13, which figure resembles much our plant in the leafy 
branches of the corymb. We possess another very curious new species, sent from Valparaiso by Mr. 
Bridges, which may be thus distinguished : — G. ulophyllum ; annuum, basi decumbente valde ramosum, ubique 
arachnoideo-lanosum, foliis linearibus acutis decurrentibus undulato-crispatis, corymbis elongatis, floribus 
glomeratis sordidis, involucri squamis oblongis obtusis nitidis.
