(1) On ne devine pas pourquoi cette espèce figure encore sous le nom de fœmina dans l'Ecole de botanique du Jardin des Plnates de Paris, puisque depuis plusieurs années on a supprime celui mas , tout aussi absurde , par lequel on désignait l'espèce appelée aujourd'hui corallina.

9. Pæonia Decora ....
α. Pallasii ; foliolis anguste oblongis.
Seeds of this plant were received by Messrs. Lee and Kennedy from Pallas, probably from the Crimea, where he spent the latter years of his life. The name he gave it, if any, has been lost; they called it byzantina: its flower has a fine deep rose colour, in shape and appearance not unlike that of Papaver somniferum ; the seedlings came up without exhibiting any apparent variation.
