A point of morphological interest, to which I do not, as I write,

recollect a parallel amongst allied Dicotyledons, is the occurrence

of a bracteole between each flower of the capitulum and the axis.

This bracteole is bicarinate with ciliate keels and more or less deeply

2-lobed ; possibly made up of two lateral bracteoles connate by their

‘inner margins.

This plant is quite one of the most interesting of the many

important additions made by Mr. Baron to the Madagascar Flora.—

This very remarkable genus, with the texture of foliage of a coarse

Cyperus, a.good deal resembles Sparganiwm in its perianth, whilst in

an, structure of the flower, ovary, ovules, and seeds is unlike any known

to me. In T. Jenmant, of which flowers only are seen by me, I find

sometimes one ovule in each cell with a long funicle, at others 3 super-

posed and sessile. In 7. spherocephala, of which I have seen fruits

only, I find one seed only, or one abortive ovule in each of the cells,

which are separated by septa of extreme tennity. The abortive ovules

of this species present the curious appearance figured at t. 1407, f. 7.

The mature contents of the cells, figs. 8 and 9, are most curious, and

ted examin:

tion of them obliges me to regard them as seeds in which the albumen,

clothed in a thin integument, hangs freely from the top of the cavity

of the cartilaginous testa, which is produced into an apical and basal

rigid barbed spine. Materials are, however, wanting for tracing the

development of the OTe fruit, and seeds, and thus explaining satis-

torily yin structure

The affinity of this genus appears to be with Pisosperma, Sonder,

which is also South African, and from which it differs in the structure

of the anthers, in the stigmas, in the 2-fid tendrils and form of the

fruit. Though I have seen several sheets of the plant, none show

whether it is monccious or dioecious. The separation of the cells of

the two-celled anthers is complete, bisecting the connective and very

short filaments, each cell resembling a free 1-celled anther.—J. D.

This Grass so strongly resembles the stoloniferous Nears of Agrostis

that would not include the two. The loose eA ceiesen oa, with nearly

horizontal branches, is the most striking character of A. simulans, and

the glumes are almost wholly opaque. These differences may be due to

local causes ; still the late General Munro has marked it ‘ good species,’

Columbia, Ball.

This beautiful plant, conspicuous from a distance owing to the bril-

liant red colour of the inflorescence, was obtained for me by my friend,

Richard Ward, Esq., to whose assistance in collecting plants during

a short excursion in the Peruvian Andes I feel much indebted. It

was seen on the trunk of a tree about 40 feet high. It is widely

different from A. racemosus, Hook., figured at tab. 243, Moe oe of this

work, and still more so from smoronoiue, Benth., PL. w. p. 221.

It is, “however, nearly allied to a plant collected in Peru i Mackan, of

which there is an unnamed specimen in the Kew Herbarium. Another

specimen in the same collection from New Granada—No. sie of

Triana’s collection—is probably referable to the same species as

Maclean’s plant, but is in bad condition and scarcely dekemiiuntls: In

both the peduncles are much shorter than in the Buenaventura speci-

rod to the paper long after they have been thoroughly dry.—J.

This noble tree is noticed in Baker’s ‘ Flora of Mauritius ae the

amongst other treasures, she brought with her a painting of the foliage

and fruit of the Capucin, and made arrangements for flowers ing sent

home when these should appear. These, which she kindly transmitted

to Kew, sea enn me to determine that the Capucin is neither a

Siderowylon n a Mimusops, but very near to the large genus Chry-

sophyllum, (ors which it differs in the biseriate lobes of the calyx;

who in the gel work above quoted was ried to "think it might

prove to be a net species, came to the conclusion later (Gen. Plant.

Caulis validus 14-3-ped. v. altior.

As my colleague, Mr. N. E. Brown, eee out, Mr. Bentham was

in error in referring this plant to Disa (Ge . Plant. iii. 627 ), probably

through misapprehension as to origin of ‘he spur. Dr. Reichenbach’s

generic diagnosis runs thus :—‘“‘ Affine Habenarie : columna latissima,

anther loculis antice abruptis sine canalibus, rostello latissimo lami-

nari antice in epg triangulas descendente, stigmatis cruribus

ore e, deorsum et sursum porrectis, hine bicruribus.”’ The specific

escription i is aay in Dr. Reichenbach’s words.—D. Otiver.
