Engler and Krause consider that LZ. alboannulatus should be placed in the 
section Rigidiflori. It appears to the writer, however, to have more in common 
with the Zafundibuliformes as defined above (p. 257). The corolla-lobes are 
much shorter than the tube, and the anthers are only one-third to half as long as 
those of the Rigidiflori. 1n both these respects, as well as in habit, L. alboannulatus 
agrees with DL. trinervius, Engl., L. djurensis, Engl., and L. brunneus, Engl. (sect. 
Infundibuliformes). It runs down in the key (p. 265) beside L, brunneus. 
13a. Loranthus apodanthus, Sprague. A pendulous bush, 5 ft. 
long. Branches pendulous, terete, stout, up to nearly 4 lin. in diam., 
glabrous, greyish-brown, smooth in a young state, minutely and rather 
densely lenticellate when adult. Leaves ovate or ovate-oblong, gradually 
narrowed towards the acute apex, rounded at the base, 3-43 in. long, 
14-24 in. broad, rigidly coriaceous, glabrous ; petiole stout, channelled, 
5-7 lin. long. Heads 4-flowered; peduncle stout, 2 lin. long, enlarged 
above, sockets of the flowers obliquely inserted, cupular, nearly $ lin. 
deep, touching one another laterally and separated in the centre by & 
shallow apical depression; bract obliquely cupular, ventral margin 
over 3 lin. long, dorsal margin 1} lin. long. Receptacle and calyx to- 
gether campanulate, about 2 lin. long. Calyx subtruncate, 1 lin. long. 
Corolla 1 in. long in bud, not known ina fully developed state, carmine- 
red, dark green above, slightly swollen at the base, apical swelling ellip- 
soid, 2 lin. long, nearly 14 lin. in diam., pentagonal, the angles strongly 
ribbed. Filaments 24 lin. long, excluding the tooth, tooth stout, 
acute, % lin. long; anthers oblong-linear, over 1 lin. long. Dise 
distinctly lobed, } lin. high. Style strongly skittle-shaped above.—L,

The systematic position of Z. apodanthus must remain doubtful until fully 
developed flowers are known. It may be placed in the meantime beside LZ. Penta- 
gonia, DC., and L. senegalensis, De Wild.
