Order XLI. CAMPANULACE^. 
169. Wahlenbergia gracilis, A. Rich. — Mueller points out that A. T)e 
Candolle’s specific name of gracilis has two years’ priority over Richard’s, and 
therefore A. DC. should be substituted for A. Rich. 
171. Lobelia rugulosa, Graham in Edinb. New Phil. Journ. 1829; DC. 
Prod. vii. 366, is, I suspect, a synonym of Pratia angulata.
