Gurumbi Mountains, near Uporoto, 5600 ft., Goetze, 1148. 
There is a specimen in the herbarium of the British Museum, collected by 
Whyte near Zomba, Nyasaland, which agrees so closely with Schumann’s description 
of C. macrophylla that I suspect it is the same species. The fruits attached to it, 
which are not perfectly mature, have been used for the completion of the description 
of the genus, the fruit of which was not previously known. 
24. SCHIZOZYGIA, Baill. in Bull. Soc. Linn. Paris, i. 752. 
Calyx small; sepals 5, almost free, herbaceous, ovate, not ciliate, 
glandular inside the base. Corolla salver-shaped ; tube short, elongate- 
ovoid ; lobes very asymmetric, overlapping to the right, inflexed in bud. 
Stamens inserted at the middle of the corolla-tube; anthers conniving 
in @ cone, sessile, lanceolate-sagittate, acute; wings horny with acute 
margins ; tails acute ; foot of the connective flat, glabrous, viscous. Ovary 
apocarpous except at the base, surrounded by a fleshy disc adnate to ? of 
its height ; style filiform; stigma capitate, 5-grooved, very viscous, with 
an undulate ring at the base and a minute 2-lobed apiculus; ovules 2- 
seriate, about 9 in each cell. Mericarps 2, follicular, short, asymme- 
tric, the apical often obscure mucro becoming by unequal growth 
nearly basal; transverse veins prominent, numerous, arched. Seeds 
few, ovoid, embedded in a yellow pulp; testa crustaceous, finely 
granular, longitudinally striate; endosperm slightly ruminate, fleshy ; 
cotyledons thin, concavo-convex.—A dichotomously branched shrub. 
Leaves opposite, subsessile, herbaceous; axillary stipules 0; axillary 
glands few to many, short, filiform, often besides a long filiform gland 
from the transverse rim between the petioles. Racemes or spikes short, 
dense, persistently bracteate, few-flowered, springing from the branch- 
forks ; flowers small. 
Species 1, endemic.

membranous, reddish or yellowish-brown when dry ; secondary nerves 
about 8 on each side, distant; veins obscure; petiole very short 3-1 
lin, long. Inflorescences 4 in. long; bracts ovate, 1 lin. long. Calyx 
2 lin. long. Corolla-tube 2 lin. long, hairy within above the stamens ;
