CHILL 
Botanist should recognize this as the Fuchsia rosea of Ruiz and Pavon, which those authors declare to be 
found in rocky places about Valparaiso, .and stiU more strange that both Anch’ews and Sir J. E. Smith should 
give it as an inhabitant of the North-West coast of America. It was long ago introduced to om’ gardens by 
Mr. Menzies from the coast of Chili.

doris sohtariis folio longioribus, sub dore bracteolis 2 minutis hnearibus deciduis, foliis glabris densissimis 
ovahbus utrinque acutis brevissime petiolatis obsolete parallehm nervosis pelucido-punctatis, segmentis caly- 
cinis obtusissimis. — E. Cheken. Mol. Chil. — De Cand. Prodr. v. 3. p. 278. — Feuill. Chil. v. 3. t. 32. — 
Hab. Valparaiso. — This we have also received from Mr. Cruckshanks and Mr. Bridges, but without the 
vernacular name; nevertheless it accords so wed Avitli the Chehen of FeuiUee, that we have little doubt of 
its being his plant. Wlien the upper leaves faU off, the peduncles appear to be terminal and corymbose, as 
in that author’s dgure.

foliorum, foliis eUipticis obovatisve obtusissimis coriaceis subtus paUidis (jnnioribus ramuhsque subvelutinis) 
brevissime petiolatis. — Hab. Valpai-aiso. — This we have received from Messrs. Cruckshanks and Mathews, 
both of whom adu-m it to be the Temu of ChiU ; but it cannot be the Temus moschata of Mohna, which he 
considers the Temu of the country, but n hich, from his description, authors have arranged with the Magnoli- 
acece, and near to Drimys. — Oiu- plant has qnadridd don ers, and is a time Eugenia, but it may perhaps be 
the Myrtus Luma of Mohna and Sprengel, which De Candolle with doubt refers to his Myrtus multiflora.

to be frequent in Chih, and liable to much variation in the shape of the leaves, in the simple or branched 
peduncles, in the breadth, &c. of the calycine segments, and in the pubescence and glands : hence Ave have been 
led to unite with it the E. Poppigianum of De CandoUe, Avhich is indeed the E. rubra of Pqipig himself.

name is of com'se to be prefen-ed. It is also the Scandix chilensis of Molina and De CandoUe.
