Buyabuya on Upper Scarcies, March 8, no. 4269. 
[Z. angolensis, Welw., is a name not taken up by Lawson in 
Oliver’s ‘ Flora of Tropical Africa’; there seem to be two quite 
distinct plants under it in the Kew Herbarium; one of these, 
no. 4294 Welwitsch, is very near 7. sericea, Burch., and the 
other, no. 4286, comes near the species described above, but is 
in too bad a condition for final comparison. }

The following specimens differ from Lawson’s description (in 
Oliver’s Fl. Trop. Afr. p. 437) in the branches being hairy, not 
glabrous, in the leaves being hairy on the midribs, margins, and 
petioles, not glabrous, and the pedicels 4-6 lines, not 1-2 lines 
long; but they can scarcely be specifically different from Mann’s 
specimens at Kew, and even less from Barter’s 5/57 Sierra Leone.
