. The phanerogams of the Juan Fernandez Islands. Botany. 126 CARL SKOTTSBERG Folia primaria plantulae juvenilis suborbicularia, grosse et irregulariter sinuata, interdum dentibus nonnullis pungentibus munita, lamina ad 2 cm longa et lata, petiolo circ. 2 cm longo apice vel paulo infra distincte articulate Spinae sat mites, nondum pungentes, plerumque simplices, rarissime segmentis I —2 laterali- bus munitae, 3—5 mm longae. Ramelli foliigeri brevissimi, distantes. Folia secundaria anguste obovato-elliptica—elliptico-lanceolata, coriacea, discoloria sub- tus pallida, obtusa, basi manifeste angustata, reticulato-nervosa; lamina 2—3,5 cm longa et 0,6—1,3 cm lata; petiolus tenuis vulgo 2—3, rarius ad 6 mm longus, paulo supra basin articulatus. Cetera Fig. 9. a—t> Berberis masafuerana: a part of branch and one small leaf, b largest leaves seen. c—d B. corymbosa: c ordinary leaves, d exceptionally narrow leaves. All natural size. Masafuera: Q. de las Casas, one seedling by the side of a waterfall, 215 m; larger shrubs seen on the wall of the canyon in an utterly inaccessible place, but some branches were obtained by means of a lasso (no. 503); Q. de la Loberia, one shrub on a steep rock in the stream. Unfortunately, all specimens observed were sterile. B, masafuerana comes very near B. corymbosa, but differs in the colour of the cortex, in the much narrower and more coriaceous leaves and in the slender habit. I have never seen anything like this form in Masatierra, so I am confident that the flower and fruit will offer structural differences.
