MR. N. A. DALZELL ON NEW LEGUMINOS FROM WESTERN INDIA. 185 
3. Cellule verrucose—when the outside of the cell-wall shows 
small tubercles or warts, entire or from 2- to many-cleft, often stel- 
late at their apex, as in Orthotrichee, Pottiee, &c., and in Sca- 
pania equiloba, S. chloroleuca (forming a proper genus, which I call 
Schistocalyx), Southbya verrucosa, n. sp. from Amur, &c.

Hab. Western India. 
This plant has foliage in appearance much like the Nomismias. 
The legumes are of the same shape as those of Atylosia scarabe- 
oides, but they are more compressed; the valves are of much 
thinner texture, and rather papery. The seeds, which are oblong, 
with large shining bifid carunculus, are enveloped each in a very 
thin membrane, which lines the cavity in the valves. There is an 
interval of 4 inches between each pair of flowers on the terminal 
branches. 
The authors of the new ‘ Genera Plantarum’ have denied stipels 
to the genus Atylosia ; they are present on this plant and also on 
the following.
