quantity, C. B. Clarke, 19227, 45617, 45920. 
Distrib. Central Madagascar. 
Boeckeler gives, as the Indian habitat for this species, the Nilghiri 
Hills. I have never seen any Nilghiri examples ; and, from my acquaint- 
ance with the Berlin Herbarium and Boeckeler’s work thereon, 1 think the 
most probable explanation is that Boeckeler’s (supposed) Nilghiri 
examples came from Khasia.
