OF FERNANDO PO. 1? 
species, with ciliated panicles. The M. lanceolata of Abyssinia differs 
more in texture and size than any floral characters. 
LABIATA. 
l. PLEcrRANTHUS (CoLeorbes) GLANDULOsUS, H.f. Herbaceus 
superne glanduloso-pilosus, foliis petiolatis ovato-cordatis acutis grosse 
crenatis crenis crenulatis membranaceis, racemis laxe paniculatis, pa- 
nicule ramis patentibus paucifloris, pedicellis gracilibus, corolla de- 
fractze labio inferiore porrecto saccato. 
Hab. In Clarence Peak, alt. 7000 ped. (fl. April.) 
Herba diffuse ramosa, 8-pedalis. Rami graciles, obtuse tetragoni, su- 
perne cum petiolis et inflorescentia glandulosi. Folia patentia longe 
petiolata, 3"-5" long., 2"-4" lat., supra glabra, subtus ad nervos 
pilosula, petiolis 2-3" long. Panicula ampla, laxa, divaricatim ra- 
mosa. Verticillastra pauciflora, floribus gracile pedicellatis in pedun- 
culo communi gracili ternis. Calyx breviusculus, labio superiore 
brevi 1-lobo recurvo, inferiore longiore 4-fido lobis subulatis. Corolla 
cerulea, fere 2" long., labio superiore reflexo, inferiore cymbiformi 
obtuso. 
This has near allies both in South Africa, Abyssinia, Madagascar, and 
India: it differs from the technical character of the Coleoidee in the pedi- 
celled flowers. f 
2. PLECTRANTHUS (IND1) naAMosissiMUS, H. f. Pubescente-pilosa 
v. tomentosa, caule herbaceo erecto, ramis divaricatis, foliis petiolatis 
ovato-lanceolatis acutis crenatis utrinque pubescenti-pilosis, floralibus 
similibus sessilibus, cymis evolutis secus ramulos floriferos seriatim 
dispositis, pedunculis gracilibus apice ramosis 10-12-floris, calycibus 
villosis canis parvis, corollz tubo pubescente recto. 
Hab. In Fernando Po, alt. 5000 ped. (fi. Dec.) 
Herba 6-pedalis, gracilis, divaricatim ramosissima, caulibus ramisque 
pilis subferrngineis seepe deflexis vestitis. Folia 137-2" longa. Rami 
floriferi 6-10" long. Cyme pedunculi patentes, graciles, 3 7j" long., 
apice bracteas 2 patentes subulatas gerentes. ores parvi, j" long. 
Calycis tubus canus, basi hemispheericus, ore obliquo contracto. Co- 
rolla calyce ter longior, alba, recta v. lente curva, lobis subzequalibus 
recurvis, genitalibus longe exsertis. 
All the other African plants of this section (Cape, Madagascar and Abys- 
sinia) belong to a group in which the cymes are crowded and nearly ses- 
sile, with the corolla tube defracted. The present is much more closely 
allied to several mountain Indian species. 
3. Pyenostachys Abyssiniea, Fresen. Flora, 1838, ii. 608. 
Hab. Fernando Po, alt. 700 ped. (fl. Dec.) 
Herba 8-pedalis, corolla violacea. 
Judging from the short description of Fresenius in the * Flora,’ this is
