The species are nearly all objects of ornament. Some of them are remarkable for their fleshy awkward looking stems, others for their discolored leaves. The succulent kinds require to be grown in old rubbish, and to be treated as directed for Mesembryanthemums. The leaves of some species (C. procumbens and sonchifolia) are used as salad by the Chinese; and those of C. Ficoides are sometimes pickled by the French.

C. Kleinia is called cabbage tree, from the resemblance which the stalks have to those of the cabbage; and carnation tree, from the shape of the leaves and color of the flowers. Upon Cacalia alpina, &c., M. Cassini has founded his genus Adenostyles and tribe of Adenostyleæ; distinguished from Senecioneæ, to which Cacalia belongs, by the roughness of all the back of the two lobes of the style. But we do not find the division adopted by other botanists. M. Cassini himself suspects that Adenostyleæ may be united with Tussilagineæ, Y y 3 1702. KLEI'NIA. W.
