__________
To render this essay as complete as I am able, I proceed to notice such plants, as either belong or have been referred to Proteaceæ, but from my imperfect acquaintance with which, or from the unsatisfactory accounts hitherto given of them, could not with certainty be referred to any of the genera described, or, if referable to any of them, I could not with confidence propose as distinct species; and shall conclude with the addition of a few synonyms to the species described from Ray's Historia Plantarum, which had escaped me when the paper was first read to the Society.
Leucadendron linifolium, foliis lineari-spathulatis aversis basi attenuatis ramisque glabris, capitulo masculo sessili foliis circumvallantibus longiore, calycis tubo barbato: laminis stylisque imberbibus.
Protea linifolia. Jacq. Hort. Schœnb. 1. p. 11. t. 26.
Obs. There can be no doubt of the genus of this plant, or of the individual figured by Jacquin being a male. From the same figure, by which alone I am acquainted with it, it seems to be very nearly related to Leucadendron tortum, from which it differs in having the male heads sessile, and in the laminæ of the calyx being quite smooth.
Leucadendron fusciflorum, foliis lineari-lanceolatis glabris junioribus rectis basi attenuatis, capitulo femineo foliis circumvallantibus breviore, calycis laminis plumoso-barbatis: tubo pilosiusculo.
Protea fusciflora. Jacq. Hort. Schœnb. 1. p. 11. t. 27.
