178 MR. H. BOLUS’S CONTRIBUTIONS 
Burchell 6873! In montibus circa flum. Hex, alt. inter 600 et 
900 metr., fl. Jan., A. Rehmann (herb. Bolus 5755). 
This appears to come nearest to S. pubigerus, L., butis distinct 
in its more lax and more corymbose inflorescence, the heads 
being larger and not aggregated and racemose as in S. pubigerus. 
Rehmann’s specimens consist of two long branches torn off at 
the base, and I cannot be sure whether there were any radical 
leaves. [Burchell’s specimens in the Kew Herbarium show that 
there are no radical leaves distinct from the stem-leaves ; all are 
of the same character.—JN. E. Brown.)

Hab. In montibus circa Houw Hoek, alt. 600 metr., fl. Oct., 
-Bolus No. 5451 in herbb. Kewensi, meo, &c. 
The sepals and corolla are a reddish-lilac colour. The habit 
and the leaves are those of the section Lamprotes ; but the flowers 
are different, and it seems better placed as above, next to E. 
baccans, Linn., and E. chlamydiflora, Salisb.
