the tube, hairy on the outside, linear, tapered, converging 
cylindrically, inserted at the same point as the petals, co- 
hering at a spot a little below the anthers, elsewhere detach- 
ed. Style pale green, about even with the stamens, thick, 
filiform, smooth, slightly clavate and inflexed at the end:

villous apex, with a secreting gland in the middle; (after- 
wards) the gland shows itself as an oblong prominence

NOTE. 
In the article ANGRECUM maculatum (fol. 618 in the fasciculus for the 
last month) we have omitted to add the following synonym of that species. 
Geodorum pictum. Link abbild. auserl. gew. bot. gart. zu berl. 1. 35. t. 14. 
. With the genus GrEopoRuM, however, this species has far less to do 
than even with ANGR&cUM. The plant was received in the Berlin garden 
from the collections of this country. Mr. Brown has lately found, on turn- 
ing over his Herbarium, a spontaneous sample of this species, which had 
been collected at Bahia in the Brazils; so that the native spot is ascer- 
tained beyond a ccavil. Y
