The specimen in the Collection is very imperfect, and bears rather narrower leaves than in others which 
we have received also from Mr. Millett : the lateral leaflets, although shorter than the others, are sometimes 
scarcely obtuse. 
1. Cissus? Cantoniemis ; foliis bipinnatis, foliolis glabris obovato-oblongis basi acutis 
apice breviter acuminatis supra medium serratis, petalis staminibusque 5. 
Very closely allied to C. orientalis, Lam.: indeed, so much that we should not have separated them as 
species, were it not for the quinary arrangement of the parts of the flower in the present individual. The 
stamina are opposite to the petals, and inserted with them at the base of the large cup-shaped torus, which 
closely surrounds the germen: filaments straight, short, scarcely longer than the torus: anthers two-celled. 
Style short and thick. Stigma simple. 
Mr. Millett has sent a species of Vitis, from Macao, which we can compare with no species of Vine 
of the Old Word, but which so closely resembles the V. serotina of N. America, according to specimens 
we possess from Mr. Nuttall, that we dare hardly venture to consider it distinct. Almost the only difference 
is, that our plant has the leaves rather less deeply serrated, and somewhat glaucous beneath.

This appears to be abundant at Macao, whence we have also specimens from Mr. Millett. — Oxalis repens 
of this Order, is also sent by Mr. Vachell from Lappas Island.

The petals are certainly ciliated, and not entire, or merely toothed, as in R. graveolens, which one 
would rather have expected to find in China, than the present species. Loureiro, however, mentions that 
it is only found in a state of cultivation.

Macao. Mr. Millet.- — In addition to these two species, there are fragments of two others in the Collec- 
tion, too imperfect for description.
