ISLAND OF COS. 31 
On Wednesday, October the seventh, our 
interpreter, Antonio, returned from Budrun with 
IV. A non-descript herbaceous Milk-wort (Polygnla Linn."' with ra- 
cemes of pale blue flowers. We have called it POLVGALA ADSCEN- 
DENS. Polygula Jim-ibus crixtatix, rncemis u.rillaribus, pedunculatis ;

V. A non-descript species of Hartwort, (Tardy Hum Linn.) about a 
span in height, with leaflets notched at the ba*e, and rounded 
above with a few blunt teeth on their margin. The Tordylium 
huinile of MOMS. Desfonf.tines is the species which it most resem- 
bles ; but from this it differs, in not having the leaflets lobed, and 
by its flowers, which are four times as large as in that species. We 
have called it TOKDVLIUM I.VSULARE. Tordi/lium folils pinnatis, 
foliis cordnln-siibrcniformibuji inciso-dt;ntatis,petwlis pilofis: invohicri 
foliolis stthu/atis brei-ibus subguinis; involitceffi laciniis ciliatis pedi- 
cellos excedentibus ; flonlnts majusculis; seminibus crenulittis. 
VI. A very showy non-descript species of Allium ; varying from about 
ten inches to above two feet in height ; the leaves very thin and 
delicate, streaked with about twenty parallel lines, and finely 
fringed ; their breadth from about half an iach to three quarters ; 
the umbel of the flowers *trai:rht ; nearly hemispherical, with the 
number of rays varying from eight to about twenty, according to 
the size and vigour of the plants ; the petals, nearly oval, white. 
We have called it AT.LIUM PULCHKUM. AlHitm cmile angitlato, 
basi falioso, foliis cttule brev'orilus lanceolnto-oblongis, sub-planis,

the Album Neapolitnnum of Ci/rilli; to the Allinm sulhirsutum of 
Linnaus; and to the Allium ciliatum of Curtis and Sims. From
