turis minutis glandula aculeiformi decidua apiculatis, ramis florigeris foliosis apice corymbiim

This, which certainly belongs to De Candolle’s genus Blumea, (see Wight’s Contrib. p. 13, and Guille- 
min’s Arch, de Bot. 2. p. 514,) is perhaps Baccharis Chinensis, Lour., but Loureiro’s description does not 
quite accord. It is Vachell’s n. 202.

Capitulum radiatum, heterogamiim ; floribus femineis uniserialibiis in ambitu corollas

1. A. Chinensis. Hook, et Arn. — Verbesina Chinensis. Linn. ? 
This approaches in character to Buphthalmum, but has the habit of Verbesina. 
Adenophora Sineyisis, as we consider it to be, of the Order Campanulacece, is in the collection from 
Mr. Vachell; and Lobelia Chinensis, Lour., (but with the leaves slightly toothed) in that from Mr. Millett.

1. Achras Sapota. Linn. 
Ihe specimen is too little advanced to permit us to ascertain even its genus. The above name was 
attached to it by Mr. Collie. We possess also Mimusops Elengi, Willd., from Mr. Millett.
