39. Loranthus incanus, Schum. & Thonn. Add: L. pallidifolius, 
Engl. & Krause in Engl. Jahrb. xlv. 283. 
Upper Guinea. Cameroons: near Dehang, 4300 ft., Ledermann, 1572! 
I have little hesitation in referring LZ. pallidifolius to L. incanus in spite of the 
very young condition of the flowers. Barter, 3288, from Eppah, South Nigeria, 
which is undoubtedly Z. incanus, has flower-buds at about the same stage of develop- 
ment and exhibiting the same type of indumentum as those of Z. pallidifolius. The 
indumentum of the corolla in Loranthus always appears denser in young buds than 
in the fully expanded flower, owing]to the great increase in size of the corolla and 
the resulting looser arrangement of the hairs. 
45, Loranthus glaucocarpus, Peyr. Add: ZL. otavensis, Engl. 
& Krause in Engl. Jahrb. xlv. 285. 
Lower Guinea. German South-west Africa: near Otavi, on Croton sp., 
Dinter, 901 ! 
According to Engler and Krause, Dinter’s specimen bears both pentamerous and 
hexamerous flowers. This is the only African species of Loranthus in which the 
number of corolla-lobes and stamens is known to vary. Loranthus hexasepalus, 
Engl. (Thelecarpus hexasepalus, Van Tiegh.) may, however, prove to be nothing but 
a hexamerous form of the widely distributed Z. incanus, Schum. & Thonn. 
49. Loranthus fulvus, Hngl. Add: LZ. Dombeye, Krause & 
Dinter in Engl. Jahrb. xlv. 283. 
Lower Guinea. German South-west Africa: near Otavi, on Dombeya sp. 
Dinter, 933! 
56. Loranthus oreophilus, Oliv. Add: Z. ciliolatus, Engl. & 
Krause in Engl. Jahrb. xlv. 285, ZL. ‘rigidissimus, Engl. & Krause, 
Le, 287. 
Upper Guinea. Cameroons: Tchape Pass, 4700 ft., Ledermann, 2690; 
2760! 2841! : 
It is a matter of great difficulty to define the limits of some of the species of 
Loranthus, sect. Cupulati. As far as can be judged, however, from the detached 
leaves and inflorescences of Z. ciliolatus and L. rigidissimus which have been seen 
by the writer, these two species, which were collected in the same locality, can 
hardly be distinguished from each other or from Z. oreophilus. 
58. Loranthus Braunii, Zngl. Add: £. togoensis, Engl. & 
Krause in Engl. Jahrb. xlv. 286. LZ. scarlatinus, Eng]. & Krause, lc. 
Upper Guinea. Togo: near Bagida, Warnecke, 109! Cameroons: Bam- 
butto Mountains, near Singwa Market, 7000 ft., Ledermann, 1609! 
L. Braunii, Engl., as treated above (p. 303) includes six species which have _ 
considered distinct by Continental botanists. Those who admit the correctness of The 
treatment will include L. togoensis and L. scarlatinus also under ZL. Brauni. The 
material accessible to the writer is too incomplete to determine to which of the 
varieties of LZ. Braunii they should be referred. 
60a. Loranthus pachycladus, Sprague in Kew Bulletin, 1912, 
233. A bush about 5 ft. in diam. Branches stout, nodose, cinmamon- 
brown, 3-4 lin. in diam., bark irregularly cracked leaipitidisiey * 
branchlets striate, glabrous, greenish-brown in a dried state, internodes
