Sem. 1. superum nudum. specific Character and synonyms.

PROTEA anemonisolia; soliis linearibus elongatis superne fur- cato-pinnatifidis: pinnis imis longioribus furcatis, capitulo globoso terminali.

DEsC. stem shrubby, three feet high, villous.

Leaves scattered, rigid, nerved, smooth, erect, lengthened downwards so as to resemble a long sootstalk, branched at the upper part into about three pair of pinnas, the lowermost of which are longest and variously forked at the end: points all armed with a callous reddish mucro or gland.

Common Flower solitary, globofe, sessile.

Calycine scales ovate-acuminate, very woolly except the margin, compactly imbricate, forming a globofe Corolla one- cone stuffed with a fine white cottony substance. petaled, tubed: tube longer than limb, which is four-cleft, hairy, tortuose.

Anthers linear, 2-lobed sessile. style ex- serted, club-shaped. stigma conical, acute; the ftyle and stigma have a singular appearance in this species something like two cones with their bases applied together, but when the flower first opens, these parts are so entirely covered with the pollen as to appear four-sided.

Corresponds Corresponds very nearly with LINNEUS's original defcrip- tion of PROTEA fphærocephala, and is not unlike HOUTTUYN'S figure of that plant; it does not however agree with the defcrip- tion of THUNBERG, and being a native of New-Holland, differing from most of the Cape species in having a long tube to the corolla, and limb divided into four equal segments, is undoubtedly distinct.

We have adopted the name of anemoni- solia, though certainly not very appropriate, as it has been some time known by that name in several of our nurferies.

We were favoured with the specimen from which our draw- ing was made, by Mr.

NAPIER, Nurferyman, near Vauxhall, a very successful cultivator of many rare articles, who raised it from seeds received from Port-Jackson.

Is a greenhouse plant, and requires the same treatment as the reft of the genus. (audimodo obom any obaidul iltag) also 2 .mubun muisqul.mooie silni is sold agen?
