I believe that there is only one species of this genus, of whieh 
P. rufobarbatum, Griff., distinguished as a second species by 
Hackel, forms part. It is often difficult to say to whieh of 
Hackel's varieties a given specimen belongs, and both seem to be 
distributed over the whole area of the species. Bentham (Journ. 
Linn. Soc., Bot. xix. p. 67) says the genus “ is a single tropical 
and subtropical Asiatic species.”
