Note 5 — APPENDIX G
Reading edition
The only possible exception to this statement among the plants enumerated in our list is that entered as Asparagus scoparius, Lowe (?) From the differences between the foliage and that of other known species it was at first entered as a new species peculiar to the Atlas. Subsequent comparison with a Madeira specimen from the late Mr. Lowe suggested their possible identity. Should this be hereafter verified, the number of endemic species in the tables given above must be reduced from 75 to 74.
