The very long slender spur best distinguishes this species from its 
small-flowered, opposite-leaved allies, except I. diversifolia, which has 
sessile leaves, and the following. 
16. I. serosa (Н. f. $ T.). Herbacea, ramosa, ramis oppositis, foliis 
petiolatis setoso-stipulatis ovato-lanceolatis acuminatis obscure serratis 
margine basin versus distanter longe setosis utrinque pilosulis, pedicellis 
gracilibus, sepalis majusculis oblique ovatis, caleare elongato filiformi 
gracillimo incurvo. 
Hab. Mont. Malabar! Herb. Wight. 
Herba 2-pedalis. Folia 14-23”, submembranacea, subtus glauca, basin

cillimo, 1-14”. 
The long hairs towards the base of the leaves, at the margin, and at 
the position of the stipules, together with the rather large purple flower, 
and very long slender ascending spur, distinguish this from all others of 
the opposite-leaved 1-flowered section. I have seen but one specimen 
in Wight’s Herbarium. 
17. I. TENELLA (Heyne in Wall. Cat. 4746 A!). Parvula, erecta, sub-
