4. Hamadryas paniculata, Hook, fil.; foliis longe petiolatis rotundatis sub-5 -lobis, lobis obtusis crenatis supra glabratis reticulatis subter parce sericeo-torneutosis, scapo gracili masculo laxe paiiiculatim ramoso multifloro superne towentoso.

Hab. Staten Land ; Webster.

Petioli (exemplare unico) 4 unc. longi, glabri, validi. Folia concava, 2 unc. lata, coriacea, insequahter lobata, vix ad medium fissa, lobis grosse et obtuse crenatis. Scapi fobo longiores ; masculi parce sericei, ramis paucis mrcquilongis multifloris ; fceniinei (manci) pauciflori. Flares ut in U. argentea.

A distinct looking plant, both in the foliage and compound panicle, from any of its congeners. The specimens are in a very poor state.

1. Lyallia Kerr/uelensis, Hook. fil. (Tab. CXXII.)

Hab. Kerguelen's Land; forming large tufts in barren places, but very local. Radices lignosi, descendentes. Rami perplurimi, densissime fastigiati, in ceespites globosas dispositi, 3-5 unc. longi, stricti v. curvati, unc. diametro. Folia secus ramos densissime imbricata, pluriseriata, alterna, ramo multoties angustiora, erecta, incui'va, bnearia, sessiba, subconcava, apice rotundata, obscm-c irregulariter sinuato-dentata, 3-5-costata (costa in nervos vabdos parallelos infra apicem evanidos divisa), coriacea v. subchartacea, persistentia, sicca pallida, tenninaba palbde vireseentia, 2-3 bn. longa, ter quaterve longiora quam lata. Pedunculi temiinales, solitarn, folio breviores, erecti, infra florem dilatati, basi bibrac-teati. Bractea pedunculis eeqiulongaj, basi connatae, acuminatas. Calyx fructiferus utriculo brevior, e fobolis 4 (nunc 5 ?) ovatis obtusis 5-nerviis utriculo appressis constans. Petala et stamina ignota, sed (ab indole calycis discique) verosimibter perigyna. Utriculus - 1 bn. longus. Semen utriculiun fere implens.
