* Convolvulus involucratus. Vol. 4. fol. 318. 
This has been since published in Curtis’s: Magazine under the title 
C. bicolor, as being the same as the species of that name in Dr. Roxburgh’s 
Manuscripts, which it may possibly be; but it is nevertheless that we have 
given it for, and of course should be continued by the title under which it 
has been long previously published. 
-Erysimum diffusum. Vol. 5. fol. 388. 
M. De Candolle has changed the original specific name to canescens, as 
one that is better suited. To ts we own the name first recorded is always the 
best. M. De Candolle also suspects that the drawing annexed to the above 
article may rather belong to /anceolatum than to diffusum ; but does not say 
why. We again suspect that the whole may be left as it is, with the 
addition of the following synonym. in 
Erysimum canescens. Decand. syst. veg. 2. 500. 
Hovenia acerba. Vol. 6. fol. 501. 
We were indebted for the above article to Mr. Lindley, who had dis- 
tinguished the plant from HoventA dulcis, principally by the supposed en- 
tire-edged leaves and unpalatable small fruit. it has been subsequently 
discovered, by samples from the same plant in Mr. Lambert’s collection 
at Boyton, that Mr. Lindley, as wellias our artist, has overlooked the 
serrature of the leaves, and that in reality these are serrated and not entire. 
This being the case we sce no reason for distinguishing the plant from Ho- 
ventA dulcis, though it has ‘not ripened its fruit to the perfection it does in 
its native climate. Mr. Lambert tells us that it was raised from seed sent 
to him by Dr. Wallich from India. The following alterations should be 
made in the above article. - 37

Native of Japan, where it is much cultivated, as well as in China, for 
the sake of its fruit, of the nature of which it‘has already been spoken in 
the above article. Said to grow to a small tree about 12 feet high. The 
leayes are described as smooth by Thunberg, but are known from native 
samples .to be finely furred.
