. Flowers, fruits and leaves. Botany; Flowers; Seeds; Leaves. 146 TREE SPECIES. SUCCULENT SPECIES, [chap. S. araneosus and 5. tamoides like a smilax or tamus (Yam); 5. tropceolifolius like a tropseolum. Among the species inhabiting hot, dry regions are some with swollen fleshy leaves, such as 5. haworthii from the Cape of Good Hope, and 5. pteroneura, from Mogador. Senecio rosmarinifalius, of the Cape, is curiously like a Rosemary or Lavender. Lastly, some species may almost be called small trees, such.

I might mention, if space permitted, many other species which, as their names denote, closely resemble forms belonging to other groups—such, for instance, as Senecio lobelioides, erysimoides, bupleurioides, verbascifolius, juniperinus, ilicifolius, acanthifolius, linifolius, platanifolius, graminifohus, verbenefolius,.
