Flowers in several respects like those of G. microcarpum^ Meissn., but 

 foliage altogether different. The flowers are in an advanced state and their 

 corollas not well seen in consequence.

This might perhaps be includg^d w^ithin the limits of C. Sturtn^Ji. Br.^ ns 

 understood by Benthani ; but on comparing it with Sturt's type in the 

 British Museum (which seems to have escaped Eentham's notice^ as he 



mentions Start only under the hypotlietical var. ? coccinea)^ the idea of 

 conspecilicity nmst be abandoned, so different are the two plants. The vnr.? 

 coriacea {to which may be referred the plant entered as C Slurtii in Journ, 

 Linn. Soc. xxxiv. p. 188) also seems deserving of specific rank.
