RIVER NIGER, THE ISLAND OF FERNANDO PO,
AND ADJACENT PARTS OP

FROM THE COLLECTIONS OF
DR. TH. VOGEL:

MR. G. DON AND OTHER TRAVELLERS .

AND
GEORGE BENTHAM, ESQ.
[Ensimmäinen kappale / Preface]
The following pages contain a complete enumeration of all the plants collected by the late Dr. Vogel and his companions at Sierra Leone and other parts of the Guinea Coast, on the River Niger and its branches, and in the Island of Fernando Po, and of those gathered by Mr. George Don, chiefly at Sierra Leone and in the Island of St. Thomas, when collecting for the Horticultural Society.
[s. 293-295]
1. Indigofera bracteolata, Guill. et Perr. Fl. Seneg. I. p. 176. - Senegambia ; on the Quorra, Vogel.
2. Indigofera enneaphylla, Linn. - S. Thomas, Don ; Cape Palmas and Grand Bassa, Vogel.
3. Indigofera sp. very near I. tetrasperma, Vahl, and I. paniculata, Perr., but possibly distinct. There is only a single specimen in Vogel's collection without any precise locality. It appears to be an erect annual, four or five feet high, much branched in the upper part, the upper leaves are simple and like those of I. tetrasperma, but the lower leaves are wanting, and there is no fruit, so that it cannot be accurately described.
4. Indigofera Nigritana, Hook. fil. ; caule tereti erecto ramoso, ramulis gracilibus glabratis, stipulis lineari-subulatis, foliolis
lineari-obovatis subacutis strigillosis, caulinis 2-3-jugis, raineis ultimis floralibusque simplicibus, pedicellis axillaribus filiformibus unifions, calycis strigosi 5-partiti laciniis lanceolatosubulatis subsequalibus, vexillo oblongo calyce bis longiore, ovario biovulato, legumine appresse piloso breviter oblongo compresso dispermo. - On the Quorra, Vogel.
Caulis herbaceus, 2-3-pedalis, superne pyramidatim ramosus, ramulis strictis sulcatis, ultimis filiformibus. Petioli graciles, 1/2-3/4 poll, longi. Folióla ramea 3 lin. longa, floraba minora, ultima bracteæformia. Pedunculi 1/4-3/4 poli, longi, ápiee curvati v. geniculati. Flores 1 1/2 lin. longi. Calyx glandulosus. Legumen fere 2 lin. longum, atrofuscum, seminibus suborbiculatis.
5. Indigofera endecaphylla, Jacq. DC. Prod. 2. p. 228. - I. anceps, Vahl, DC. l. c.- I. Schimperiana, Höchst. PI. Abyss. - Grand Bassa and Cape Palmas, Vogel; found also in Senegal and Guinea, in Abyssinia and East Tropical Africa, southward to Port Natal.
6. Indigofera simplicifolia, Lam. DC. Prod. 2. p. 222. - On the Quorra, at Attah, Vogel; Sierra Leone, Smeathmann.
These are luxuriant specimens, above three feet high, though apparently an annual, the stems are nearly simple, as described by Lamarck, and certainly not very much branched, as appears to have been the case with the specimen seen by De Candolle. The larger leaves are five inches long and half an inch broad, but the upper ones are scarcely above an inch and a half long as stated by Lamarck. Vogel's specimens are not in fruit, but the ovary is long and slender, with numerous ovules.
7. Indigofera dendroides, Jacq. DC. Prod. 2.p. 227. - Savannahs of the Quorra, Vogel ; Senegal and Guinea.
8. Indigofera hirsuta, Linn. DC. Prod. 2.p. 228. - I. astragahna, DC. I. c. - I. ferruginea, Schum. et Thonn. Beskr. p. 370. - I. fusca, G. Don, Gard. Diet. 2. p. 211. - Cape Coast/and on the Quorra Vogel ; St. Thomas, Don ; Senegal and Guinea.
A widely diffused species, extending from Tropical Africa through the whole of Southern Asia to the Philippine Islands and North Australia, and varying considerably in most of these localities.
9. Indigofera Anil, Linn. - I. uncinata, G. Don, Gard. Diet. 2. p.208. - Sierra Leone and on the Quorra, Don, Vogel; cultivated. The name Anil, given by Linnaeus to the West African and American indigo, is derived from a Hindostanee term applied to the Indian indigos, and especially to the I. tinctoria, and signifying blue. Both the I. tinctoria and I. argéntea are also cultivated in West Tropical Africa.
Besides the above nine species, the same region possesses at least twenty-seven other species of Indigofera, viz. : 1. I. (Amecarpus) Senegalensis, Lam. (I. tenella, Schum. et Thonn., and Brissonia trapesicarpa, Desv.) from Senegal and Nubia ; 2. I. diphylla, Vent., from Senegal; 3. I. Perrottetii, Guill. et Perr., from Senegal; 4. I. oligosperma, DC. (I. glutinosa, Schum. et Thonn.) Senegal, Guinea and Nubia; 5. I. macrocalyx, Guill. et Perr., Senegal ; 6. I. nigricans, Vahl, (J. elegans, Schum. et Thonn.) Guinea ; 7. I. pulchra, Vahl, Senegal and Nubia ; 8. I. procera, Schum. et Thonn., Guinea; 9. I. trichopoda, Guill. et Perr., Senegal ; 10. 7. tetrasperma, Schum. et Thonn., (nee Vahl ex Webb, supra p. 121), Guinea; 11. I. paniculata, Pers., Sierra Leone ; 12. I. viscosa, Lam. (7. glutinosa, Guill. et Perr., and possibly I. lateritia, Willd.), Senegal and Guinea, and thence across Tropical Africa to the East Indian Peninsula; 13. I. sessiliflora, DC, Senegal; 14. I. linearis, DC, Senegal and Cape Verd Isles; 15. I. subulata, Vahl., {I. Thonningii, Schum.) Guinea; 16. I. pilosa, Poir. (I. Guineensis, Schum. et Thonn.), Guinea; 17. I. aspera, Guill. et Perr., Senegal and Cordofan; 18. I. Prieureana, Guill. et Perr., Senegal; 19. I. lasiantha, Desv., Angola; 22.1, macrophylla, Schum. et Thonn., Guinea; 23.1, secundiflora, Poir., Guinea, and four unpublished species from Senegal. The I. ornithopodiodes of Schum. and Thonn., cultivated in Guinea, appears to be the I. tinctoria.
