separated under the name of Oxyramphis. It is one of the species 
of which we have seen no specimens, but the description so much 
resembles the shrub before us, that we presume them to be the 
same, although we are unacquainted with the fruit. It may, 
however, belong to the genus Campylotropis, which is equally 
unknown to us. It is a very pretty greenhouse shrub, which 
flowers in October and November, and grows freely in sandy 
loam and peat. It rises to the height of four or five feet, and 
loses its leaves in the winter, at which time it should be allowed 
to sink to rest. Its flowers, half crimson and half rose-coloured, 
are very pretty, and appear in short close racemes from every 
axil. It was sent from the Botanic Garden, Saharunpur, in 
August, 1837, by Dr. Falconer, and flowered in the collection of 
the Horticultural Society in October, 1845.— j Bot. Bey. 28-46. 
Lamiace^; . —Didynamia Gymnospermia. 
Cedronella pallida. A species with pale, dull red flowers, from 
the north of Mexico, whence seeds were obtained by F. S cheer. 
Esq., who gave them to the Horticultural Society, in whose garden 
the flowers were produced in October last. It has hitherto been 
treated as a greenhouse plant, but it may prove hardy enough for 
bedding out in a flower garden in summer.— Bot. Beg. 29-46. 
Leguminos^i.— Becandria Monoyynia. 
Chorozema triangulare. This species is one of the prettiest of 
its interesting family, and in the greenhouse, when in a healthy 
state, is always interesting, its singularly-angled bright green 
leaves rendering it so, even when not in flower. It is a native of 
New Holland, where it was discovered by Baxter. To this 
country it was introduced in 1830, but is still somewhat scarce, 
which may arise in part from the delicacy of its nature, it being 
one of the more delicate of the genus. In habit it is naturally 
less straggling than some species of Chorozema, and by judicious 
managing can be rendered very compact. It is in an inter¬ 
mediate degree robust, well clothed with leaves, and bears in 
early spring very freely its short spikes of lively scarlet and 
purple flowers.— Pax. Mag. Bot. 
AcanthacEjE. —Diandria Monogynia. 
Branthemum variabile. A lovely species, but very little known, 
bearing all the summer in great profusion its spikes of pretty light
