nearly tomentose. This was found both in the islands of Oahu and Oneeheow, but the preceding five 
species appear to have been observed in the latter only.

There is in the Collection a very slender state of this species from Oahu ; the more common appearance 
is from Oneeheow.

Ord. XXX. CYRTANDRACE^. Jack. 
1. Cyi’tandra cor difolia; foliis subrotundo-ovatis acutis oblique cordatis dentatis supra 
hirsutis subtus villoso-tomentosis ferrugineis, pedunculis trifloris, calycibus ferrugineo-villosis. 
Gaud, in Freyc. Voy. p. 446. t. 56. 
2. Cyrtandra grandijlora ; foliis oblongis acuminatis basi angustatis obsolete denticu- 
latis ciliatis supra glabriusculis subtus pallidioribus, nervo venisque pulverulento-pubescen- 
tibus, pedunculis apice diphyllis bifloris, calycibus glabris. Gaud, in Freyc. Voy. p. 447. 
t. 55. 
The specimen is very imperfect, though decidedly the plant figured by Gaudichaud. 
3. Cyrtandra Lessoniana ; foliis oblongis acuminatis basi angustatis denticulatis supra 
puberulis subtus tomentoso-sericeis ferrugineis, pedunculis unifloris bibracteatis, calycibus 
quinquepartitis subvillosis, laciniis margine undulato-reflexis. Gaud, in Freyc. Voy. p. 447. 
t. 54. 
There are two varieties in the Collection, one of which has the leaves twice as long as those figured by 
Gaudichaud. 
4. Cyrtandra Garnotiana ; foliis elliptico-oblongis acutis in petiolum decurrentibus 
remote serrulatis supra hirtellis subtus molliter tomentoso-pubescentibus canescentibus, 
pedunculis paucifloris subdichotomis, calycibus villoso-pubescentibus. Gaud, in Freyc. Voy. 
p. 447. t. 53. 
5. Cyrtandra paludosa ; foliis oblongis acuminatis basi angustatis grosse serratis glabris 
subtus pallidioribus, pedunculis brevissimis flores paucos pedicellatos umbellatim dispositos 
gerentibus, calycibus glabx'iusculis. Gaud, in Freyc. Voy. p. 447. 
Although Gaudichaud describes his plant as having single-flowered peduncles, still we think it the same 
as ours; indeed, on some of the specimens before us there is only one flower, or rather fruit, to each 
peduncle ; but a slight inspection show's that this is caused by all the pedicels but one having fallen off'. 
In the Collection there are two states or varieties ; one with much smaller and more rigid leaves than 
the other. Gaudichaud enumerates and figures yet another species, C. triflora ; foliis oblongis subaciuninatis 
basi cxmeatis subduplicato-seiTatis glabris, nervo venisque subtus adpresso-pubescentibus, pedunculis trifloris, 
calycibus glabriusculis. Gaud. 1. c. t. 52. — We have also another in our herbariiun, from the same islands, 
discovered by Mi’. Menzies, which we propose to call C. Menziesii; foliis quaternis oblongis brevissime 
acuminatis basi cuneatis versus apicem subdenticulato-sen’atis supra scabriuscuhs subtus glabris, nervo
