212 DR. J. D. HOOKER ON THE PLANTS 
labiato hiante, coroll: tubo brevi defracto, labio superiore brevissimo, 
inferiore elongato cymbiformi. 
Hab. Cameroons Mountains, alt. 5000-6000 feet. (Fl. Nov.) 
Caulis robustus, glaberrimus, crassitie penne anatine, 4-gonus, inter- 
nodis brevibus. Folia purpureo variegata, lamina basi in petiolum 
brevem angustata. Racemi 4 unc. longi, stricti, graciles, pedicellis 
patentibus }—} une. longis. Calyx glanduloso-puberulus, lobo supe- 
riore recurvo obtuso, lateralibus minutis, inferiore superiorem æquante 
apice bifido ; fauce glaberrima. Corolla 3 unc. longa, glabra. Fila- 
menta ad medium monadelpha. 
The calyx of this plant is of the same form as that of Plectran- 
thus decumbens, of which it is a near ally, but the monadelphous 
stamens remove it to Coleus. 
8. PvcNosTACHYS ABYSSINICA, Fresen. (ante, vi. 17). 
Hab. Fernando Po, alt. 7000 feet. Cameroons Mountains, alt. 6000 
feet. (Fl. Dec.) 
Speeimens from the Cameroons Mountains are more glabrous 
than those from Fernando Po, in this respect approaching the 
Madagascar P. cerulea and the S.-African P. reticulata. All 
may be forms of one. 
9. MicRoMERIA PUNCTATA, Br., Benth. in DC. Prodr. xii. 230. 
Hab, Cameroons Mountains, alt. 7000-10,000 feet. (Fl. Dec., Jan.) 
Certainly the same as the Abyssinian plant, and possibly a form 
of a South-European one. 
10. CALAMINTHA SiMENSIS, Benth. (ante, vi. 18). 
Hab. Fernando Po, alt. 8500 feet. Cameroons Mountains, alt. 7000- 
10,500 feet. (Fl. Dec.) ` 
11. NEPETA (PYCNONEPETA) RoBUSTA, H.f.,n.sp. Erecta, robusta, 
ramosa, pubescenti-hispidula, foliis breviter petiolatis ovatis obtusis 
grosse serratis coriaceis reticulatis, verticillastris in spicas densas 
cylindricas terminales dispositis, bracteis lanceolato-subulatis, calycem 
rectum tubulosum zquantibus, corolle tubo exserto. 
Hab. Cameroons Mountains, alt. 6000-8000 feet. (Fl. Nov., Dec.) 
Herba 3-4-pedalis, caule valido, ramis crassitie penne anserinz, pilis 
patulis subhispidis hirsuta. Folia 1-13 unc. longa, rigidula, utrinque 
rugosa, supra glabra, subtus pilosa. Cymarum spice l unc. longe, 
obtusz, densiflore. Flores breviter graciliter pedicellati, flavi?. Calyx 
i-i unc. longus, 15-nervius, pilosus, dentibus subulatis. —Corolia 
tubo pubescente exserto, lobis oblongis obtusis. 
Closely allied to the Abyssinian W. ballotifolia, Hochst., which 
has broader bracts and much larger flowers.
