NOTES. 
lycioides. We have found that the marks which misled us, in common with 
Willdenow, exist only in the defectiveness of the figure and description in 
the Flora Peruviana, and do not belong to the plant itself. Some unac- 
countable error has occurred in regard to the seedvessel, attributed in both 
figure and description to this plant ; for such seedvessel evidently belongs to 
a plant of a different family. Vesr1a has been properly separated from 
PERIrHRAGMOs, or at least from the other species which had been combined 
with it under that generic title; for besides other differences, as Mr. Brown 
observed to us, the very essential feature of an imbricate xstivation belongs 
to the corolla of Perieuracmos, while in Vesr1a the estivation of the 
corolla is valvular. Owing to the same misrepresentation that misled us, the 
species has been reduced by Jussieu, in the Annales du Muséum, to the 
genus Cantu, belonging to the order Polemonia ( Polemonidee ). 
The following synonymy should be subjoined to that already in the article 
cited at the head of this note. 
Periphragmos foetidus. Ruiz et Pavon flor. peruv. 2.17. t. 132; (fide exempl, 
prototypt in Herbar. Dom. Lambert; exclusis tamen Jigura descriptione- 
que fructis operis citati). 
Cantua ligustrifolia. Jussieu in ann. du muséum. 3. 118. 
Guevillguevill. Vernaculé Peruvianis. 
ANGELONIA salicariefolia. Supra fol. 415. 
The following synonym may be added. 
Angelonia salicariefolia. Kunth nov. gen. et spec. 2. 303. 
Mr. Herbert informs us, that Messrs. Humboldt and Bonpland haye 
erred in supposing this species to be annual; and that it is decidedly peren- 
nial, with a suffrutescent stem. The same gentleman has propagated it by 
cuttings, and says that it requires to be kept with a pan of water under the 
garden pot in which it is kept in the summer time. 
Heticonra Bihat. Supra fol. 374. 
Add to the synonymy of that article. 
Heliconia humilis. Redouté liliac. t. 382. 
In Vol. 3. fol. 229; 2d page of the first leaf, line 11 of the English text 
for ‘that genus” read “ the genus Mora.”
