PLANTS OF KOHIMA AND MUNEYPORE. 75 
GLOBBA, sp. [n. 41298]. 
Spica simplex, laxa, floribus omnibus in bulbillos versis. 
GronnA? 
This plant was prominently abundant about Kohima, but 
without flower or fruit in October and November. It has the 
habit and leaves of a very slender Globba. 
Hepycuivm (? FLAVUM, Rorb.). 
Kohima, alt. 3000—4000 feet. 
_ This plant was copiously in flower in October, which is much 
later than H. flavum, Roxb., flowers. Also the heads were more 
orange (of H. flavum yellow), and I did not think it could be 
H. flavum. On comparing it, however, in the herbarium, I find 
no important differences ; the leaves of the Kohima plant are 
more silky, the flowers smaller than those of 77. flavum. 
HxpxocnivM (? exatum, Wall.) 
- Nambre Forest, alt. 400 feet [Naga Hills]. 
This plant is widely spread in the Khasi Hills, and is the 
- largest Hedychium there, attaining 10 feet high, with leaves 2 
- feet long, very silky beneath, and very long spikes (18 inches and 
_ more) of flowers always a pure white; extends from the Terai to 
8000 feet alt. (rarely to 4000). It is in my judgment certainly not 
a var. of H. coccineum, as Wallich has estimated it in his Mono- 
— H. MARGINATUM, sp. nova. (Plate XXXI.) 
— Folia lanceolata, subtus sericea. Spica oblonga, densa. Brac- 
tem 1-flore, oblonge obtuse, glabriuscule, apice conspicue 
marginate fimbriato-villose. Corolla 1-2 uncias longa, lutea; 
segmenta 5 linearia, labellum obovatum bifidum. 
= Kohima, alt. 4500 feet [n. 41513]. 
I cannot find similarly margined bracts among the known 
Hedychiums. 
KAEMPFERIA, sp. (no flowers). 
West Muneypore, alt. 750 feet. 
HriTcHENIA CAREYANA, Benth. 
Nambre Forest, alt. 400 feet [ Naga Hills] 
West Muneypore, alt. 350 feet. 
Stem tall, leafy, with dense terminal spike 10 by 2 inches. 
Flowers bluish purple, as of Hedychium. Fruit dry, subde-
