The figure with white fpots is like that in Mr. Jones’s drawings, defcribed by Fabrieius.

This Glycine, received from ICalm, is referred in the Linnaean herbarium to comofa, which
fpecies Linnaeus took up entirely from Gronovius, without having feen it, and which indeed
we believe, on the authority of original fpecimens in the Gronovian herbarium, to be by no
means diftind from G. monoica of Linnaeus (bratteata of Sp. PI. ed. 1.). As however all that
Linnaeus has faid of this fpecies refers to the plant of Gronovius, and even the Ihort obferva-
tion in Syft. Veg. is taken from the Flora Virginica, and not from Kalm’s fpecimen, we have
thought it belt to give a new name to that fpecimen and our figure, and to define it folits ter-
natis: foliolis ellipticisjublus j>ilo/is glands, racrnis axillaribus, leguminibus linearibus.
