We owe om- acquaintance ivith this plant to the liberality of onr learned friend M. Montague, who most rene
ronsly has eommnmrated to ns his own examples of such -Antarctic species as we deshed for comparison or examiimtion
jmhesitatrngly confiding his nmque specimens to the care of the post-office, that we might profit to the fullest
by Ins labours and avoid unnecessaiy errors. It differs from onr J. nnciformis in the larger and narrower leaves
wlncF are acute and serrato-dentate along the inner margin. ’

Most nearly related to the PI. flaccida, Lindb., of St. Vincent, whieh has a v e ^ similarly hard and woody
stem but he present m.y be known by the greater breadth of its branches and foliage, by its more compound ramifi
cation and tbe minute denticulation of its leaves.

Nearly aUied to J. uncialis, but taUer, with the leaves more remote, less imbricated and secund, more loosely
cellular and not so strongly dentate. IVlien moistened the differences are more apparent, the leaves in particular
of / . sphalera being distinctly narrowed at the base,

In habit the present approaches the African P. sarmentosa, Lindb., but in character it is more nearly aUied to
om Tasmanian J. aeuleata. The former, w'hose fructification is unknown, has larger and more rounded leaves. The
/ . aeuleata is a much larger plant; its leaves have a narrower base, and their snperior margin is recurved with a
broader fold, tho denticulation is coarser, and caljx shorter, being scarcely exseided beyond the perichætial leaves ;
above all, the ceUiilation of the J. uncialis is mueh coarser though belonging to a smaUer plant.
