Our specimens, foimd at Oneeheow, are neither in flon er nor iu fruit, and we should have referred them
to O. eorniculata, but Gaudichand having mentioned O. repens as a native of the Saudivich Islands, and not
O. comiadata, we have retained the above name.

1. Brunellia Sandicicensis; foliis oppositis simplicibus oblongis integerrimis supra
glabris subtus minutissime pubescentibus, racemis simplicibus paucifloris axillaribus.—
Gaud, in Freyc. Voy. p . 93? (absque descriptione.)
Our specimen, found in Oahu, is in a verj- imperfect state; stiU we have little hesitation in believing it to
be tbe same with the species noticed by Gaudichand, and also by Adrien de Jussieu, in his Memoir on the
Ratacece. The young branches, peduncles, and pedicels are pubescent, as also the carpels. In the specimen
before ns, the peduncle has only three flowers, one of which is terminal, and the other two are lateral and
opp<Kite to each other, all of them pedicellate. Although, foUon ing De CandoUe’s Prodromus, we have
placed this genus in Terebinthacea, Jussieu appears to us to have done right in refeniug it to the
RuUice<2 , near Zanthoxylon.

Gnudlchuud remerks of this species, that iu the more elevated parts of the isknd its a l ^ y s bear
hlphmate leaves, hut that iu the lo,ver dlstriets these disappear; also, that he higher up th y ^ w ^ ^
narrower ai-e the phytlodia, ivhile below they are broader, being T m Z m t h ^
oval In the speeimens found by Mr. Menzies, the pl.ytlodia are eonsideraWy broadm than m those in
tho present CoUection, so that wc have not hesitated to unite again, as had been formerly done by c ,
the A . lanrifclia with the present speeles. The peduncles sometimes bear only one head of flow e rs. but
more commonly, and on the same plant, they form a raceme.
