F. F. Cheeseman, Esq

This curious little species was first brought to my notice in 1867 by

. F. Cheeseman, Esq., of Auckland, a very acute botanist, to whom I am

indebted for several other interesting discoveries in the Northern Island, and

notably the beautiful little Hymenophylium Cheesemani (Baker, mss.), of

which a figure is prepared for this work.

Corysanthes was found at Purewa, about five miles from sere flower-

ing in June and July, in a dense bush, principally compo ryrsine

Urvillei, Senecio Forsteri, and Leptospermum scoparium, with a thick under-

growth of various species of

r. Cheeseman describes the leaves as more membranous than those of

other species known to — and o- bese as dull purple with several

the margins of ee hid séel behind ihn ponies and enclose it, that the

lateral sepals, when present, are very narrow-linear, placed under the lip and

never exceed it, seg that the petals, pode present, are very minute indeed,

subulate, deflexed, and placed under the basal tubes of the ii

20 1CONES PLANTARUM.

r. Cheeseman does not describe the curious ligulate, often twisted, pro-

cess which proceeds jn some specimens from the very base of ,the lip, at its

medial line, and which I find to be sometimes replaced by two subulate

The similarity of this species to Brown’s Port Jackson ©. bicalcarata, is

so strong that I suspect that it may prove identical with it; I hesitate however

to unite them without further materials, the dorsal sepal being much less

arched in the New Zealand plant.

I regret to observe that it is proposed to replace Brown’s generic name of

Corysanthes by Salisbury’s somewhat earlier one of Corybas, the totally

erron

up surreptitiously from an inspection of Bauer’s figure of the Australian

Corysanthes bicalearata, when exhibited by Robert Brown at Sir Joseph

Banks’s rooms, with the latter name attached to it—J. D. Hooxer.

The fruit contains no seed, but I have little doubt that the plant is

correctly referred to the tribe Ivoree ; from the solitary ovules, broadly adnate

to about the middle of the septum, with themicropyle (Ithink certainly) down-

wards. As a genus is it evidently clearly allied both in habit and characters

the fruit, which is crustaceous and 2-celled, not drupaceous with 2

nes.

I do not, however, place much dependence on this last point, for st fully

formed, being seedless, the fruits of Psilanthus may be abnormally developed.

in the filaments being connate te below, as in Capirona and Monadel-

phanthus, and inserted so near the base of the corolla-tube as to be all

that of a Crotalaria, and the spiral carina, which had induced Mr.

The nearest affinity of this tree is evidently with Dialium, from

which it differs in the more valvate calyx, the stamens and _ petals

forming normal whorls of five, instead of being reduced to two or

fewer, and in the shape of the fruit

yet they all probably belong to the same species.—G. Bunt
