The only specimen in the colleclion appears to be the extremity of a branch, and has all the leaves tri-
foliolate.

Both the male and female plants are in the collection; the upper as well as under side of the leaves are
densely clothed with a harsh tawny tomentum.

There b only the fragment of a raceme, without stem or leaves. Another specimen is in the Mexican
collection, but as it belongs to what we have noticed among the Loo Choo plants as Corydalis racemosa,
we presume it was only placed here by mistake.

This we do not find noticed by authors, although we already possess it in our herbarium, also from Mexico,
where, particularly on the west side, it is probably not uncommon. It has quite a different appearance from
the S . didyma of Europe. We may here remark, that S . serrata, Poir., from Montevideo, and a new species,
(foliis angustissime linearibus integerrimis) from Tweedie, found in North Patagonia, form a new section of
the genus, which may be characterized thus : Silicula nec apice emarginata nec dorso cristata : flores subumbellati.

The stamens of our plant are considerably shorter than in Vellozo’s figure referred to.

Kunth describes the leaves of his plant as membranaceous ; in ours they are hard and firm, and almost
coriaceous. There are two forms in the collection : one, the male, obtained at Tepic, where most of the
collection was made, has the leaves cuneate and narrow-oblong : the other, the female, collected at Talisco,
has oval leaves ; in both they are acute at the base.

The carpels of the specimen in the collection are covered towards the apex with several white erect bristles,
but are otherwise glabrous. De Candolle says they are quite glabrous.

We refer to this with doubt, having seen no description : we scarcely know how it differs from M. capitata,
which Schlechtendal also formerly (see Linnæa, 5. p. 227, and 6. p. 422) considered his plant to be.
