The following species of Cacteæ are daily expected from Germany, but whether they will prove distinct from those in the preceding pages, I am unable to determine until the plants arrive at Woburn Abbey.
Those kinds marked thus (*) were sent here, as new and undescribed species, I have therefore designated them by these names, until I can ascertain correctly whether they have been previously named or not.
