Tliis, again, appears a veiy Protean plant in the foliage, which is entire, siniiato-pinnatifid, or deeply pinnatifid
with lineal- spreading segments. The plant vai-ies fi-om two to sLx inches long, and bear-s one or many scapes, all
the pai-ts-being more or less dothed with a soft subtomentose pubescence ; it has also been foimd at Cape Paii--
weather by Capt. King.

I have described this species partly from my own specimens, which are very imperfect, and partly from others
gathered in Patagonia (Cape Pah-weather) by Capt. King, where a second species occurs of which a diagnosis is

For remarks upon this species, see Part 1. p. 39 of the present work. Like the Bonatia, a plant which, from
the natm-c o fth e soü, climate, and vegetation of the Falklands, might he expected to have been met with there,
accompanying the Caltha appendiculata and Astelia pumila.

voyagers.
Since the publication of the synopsis of this genus, in the flrst part of the present woik, I have examined a
new species from the Straits of Magalhaens, also inhabiting the eastern side of the Andes of ChUi, specimens of which,
from the latter locality, were then considered to be the true P. repens, which, so far as I am aware, is a native
o fth e Falkland Islands, Staten Land, and Valparaiso only.

Very nearly allied to tlie former, but differing in the short stems and much smaUer and narrower foliage,
and most materially in the narrow cylindi-ical tube of the corolla, which is fai* longer than the segments, and nearly
four times as long as broad. JL . Bridges has gathered specimens iu the marshes of El Valle de las Cuevas, on the
eastern side of the Andes of Cliili.
