Brown, or Oldenlandia biflora^ Linn.j must not be confounded with Oldenlandia hiflora of Lamarck and most 
other botanists, which is Hed. ( OldO Burmanniana, Br. — ■ Gonotheca Blumei, De Cand. I. c. p. 429, is, on 
the authority of the specimen referred to in the Paris museum, and which was compared for us by M. Adr. 
de Jussieu, identical with Hedyotis alata. {Kcenigia, Wall. Cat. n. 6196, and Wight and Arn. Prod. 1. 
p. 413.)

1. Galium rotundum. Thunh. PI. Jap. p. 59 [vix tamen G. rotundifolium, Linn.) 
Hab. Loo Choo. — In our plant the fruit is young, and covered with numerous sharp papillm, or very short 
straight hairs, so that it appears to be more allied to the Euparines or Coccogalia of De Candolle, than to 
the section to which G. rotundifolium belongs. We are ignorant of the duration of the plant ; De Candolle 
does not seem to notice it.

Perhaps this is a mere variety of H. cantoniensis (De Cand. Prod. 6. p. 44), to which species our 
Myriactis javanica (supra, p. 195) certainly belongs. This genus seems scarcely to differ from Myriactis, 
as now defined by M. De Candolle ; the glands on the underside of the ligulate florets are in our specimens 
so inconspicuous as only to be observable with a microscope : the appearance of the dowser is that of one of 
the Asthr tribe.
