AD FLORAM INDICAM (BALSAMINEE). 133 
40. I. TRUNCATA (Thw. En. p. 66). Debilis, subramosa, caulibus su- 
perne foliis floribusque sparse puberulis glabratisve, foliis (1-13^) 
petiolatis ovatis ovato-lanceolatisve acuminatis setuloso-serratis mem- 
branaceis, petiolo sparse glanduloso, pedicellis 1-3 bracteolatis gracili- 
bus, floribus parvis, sepalis minutis subulatis, labello saccato sacco 
conico, calcare breve cylindrico truncato, alis ineequaliter bilobis. 
Hab. In sylvis subtropicis Ceylonis alt. 4000-6000 ped! С. Thomson, 
Thwaites (fl. Oct.). 
Affinis I. leptopode, sed humilior et ut videtur habitu diversa, foliis juni- 
oribus petiolis pedunculisque hispidulis, floribusque pubescenti-pilosis. 
Thwaites compares this with Wight's figure of I. inconspicua, Bth., 
which, however, differs much in the opposite leaves, form of the spurless 
flowers, and longer, more slender pedicels. 
41. I. PENDULA (Heyne in Wall. Cat. 4/44!). Erecta, ramosa, ramis 
linea pubescenti eum petiolis continua, foliis (3-3") breve petiolatis 
ellipticis subcordatis v. ovato-ellipticis acutis remote serratis puberulis, 
pedicellis ebracteolatis solitariis pilosis fructiferis deflexis, floribus mi- 
nutis glabris, sepalis labello concavo non calcarato, vexillo cornuto, 
capsula parva ventricosa.— Wight & Arn. Prodr. 137 (descr. secus 
Wt. & Arn. Prodr.). 
Hab. Malabar vel Maisor, Heyne. 
Affinis I. scabriuscule fid. cl. Wt. & Arn. sed differt floribus minutis gla- 
bris. 
42. I. MvsonENsiSs (Roth. Nov. Sp.164). Саше simplici gracili erecto, 
foliis alternis lanceolatis, utrinque acuminatis glabris, pedicellis binis 
axillaribus filiformibus folio 3 brevioribus, floribus parvis, calcare recto 
brevi, capsula dense pubescente.— Roth. Nov. Sp. 164 ; Wall. Cat. 
4743; Wight, Cat. 979 (descript. ex Wight $ Arn. р. 137). 
Hab. Maisor, Heyne, Wight. 
Of this species I know nothing, except from the specimens in the 
Linnean Society, and the description of Wight and Arnott rendered 
above. It would appear to be very near I. pendula, but differs in the 
spurred flowers and pubescent capsules. 
43. I. Munronu (Wight, l. c. 1049). — Erecta ramosa tota pubescenti- 
pilosa, caule lignoso, foliis (1-2") versus apices ramorum longe petio- 
latis ovatis ovato-lanceolatisve utrinque acuminatis subserratis, pedi- 
cellis ebracteolatis solitariis, sepalis hirsutis magnis late ovatis lanceo- 
latisve acuminatis, labello in calcar conicum hamatum sensim attenuato, 
vexillo orbiculari dorso alato, alis brevibus obovatis bifidis. 
Hab. Mont. tropicis Malabarim, sylvis ad Sisparah! Wight, Gardner, 
&c. (fl. Jan.). 
Suffruticulus pedalis, ramis patentibus, siccis cicatricibus ad basin 
foliorum delapsorum nodulosis. Folia utrinque pubescenti-pilosa. 
Pedicelli unciales. Flores pollicares, purpurei. Ovarium pilosum.
