Amaryllis acuminata. Vol. 7. 584. t 
A bulb of this species threw up two scapes last summer at Mr. Col- 
vill’s, on one of which there were eight flowers expanded at the same time 
and on the other six, forming the most showy earland we ever saw even in 
this splendid genus.

Add the following synonym:

With Gzoporum the plant has still less connexion than with ANGRE- 
cum, where itis also an anomaly. ‘Native of Bahia in the Brazils, 
Acacia diffusa. - Fol. 634. 
Since this species was published, the 2d volume of Link’s Catalogue has 
been received, and in it we find the following, which may be the same 
with the above; but the account is too brief and vague for certain deci-: 
sion, and the flowers are described as solitary, while in our plant they were 
generally in pairs. oe a5, ; teria

We have scarcely a doubt that CLERODENDRON infortunatum; Loureiro

Melastoma granulosa. Fol. 671. 
We have accidentally omitted the following synonym in the aboye ar-

named and described in the Encyclopédie Botanique of Lamarck, '
