Angrecum maculatum. Suprd Vol. 8. fol. 618. 
The variety of this species, which is represented in the above article, is 
a native of Brazil; another variety with pale flowers has been found in Sierra 
Leone. The latter differs from the former in no essential particular; but 
proves the genus, of which this species forms a part, to be common to the 
continents of Africa and America. Whether it is a genuine species of An- 
gracum it is difficult to decide. There are certainly no retinacula to the 
pollen-masses, in which respect it materially differs from Angraecum; but, 
on the other hand, it appears to be of that genus in the other parts of its 
structure, and the objection which might haye been taken to its, being an 
.Angrecum, on account of its supposed geographical difference, is now, as 
above stated, removed. fs eas i) ines 
Psidium Cattleianum. Supra Vol. 8. fol. 622. * 
There appears to have been an error in supposing this species to have 
been received from China. Reason now exists for supposing it to be a 
native of some part of South America. The leaves are inaccurately repre- 
sented in the figure as hairy: they are quite free from pubescence. 
Jacaranda mimosifolia, Supra Vol. 8. fol. 631. 
This plant having been published on the same day with our plate under a 
different name, originating with Mr. Brown, we feel it due to that distin- 
guished Botanist to withdraw the name we adopted, and to apply to our plant 
that of Jacaranda ovalifolia, proposed by Mr. Brown. 
Neottia procera. Supra Vol. 8. fol. 639. 
This plant proving, upon a more careful examination, referable to the 
genus Goodyera, the head of our article should be changed to Goodyera 
procera, and the following synonym added: : 
Goodyera procera. Hooker’s Exotic Flora, t, 39. 
Berberis pinnata. Supra Vol. 9. fol. 702. 
There being many species of pinnated Berberis, we desire the more ex- 
pressive name of fascicularis, by which we also find the plant most com- 
monly known among collectors, to be adopted; the Mahonia fascicularis of 
M. De Candolle being an undoubted synonym of our plant,
