In Engl. Jahrb. xxviii. 478, Dr. Engler described a variety from German Kast 
Africa, which he called uhehensis (Uhehe ; near Mahenera, Goetze, 711). ‘There is 
nothing in the description, except the purple teeth of the calyx, by which I can 
distinguish it from the type. 
T. afinis, De Wild. Etudes Fl. Katanga, 122, appears to be very closely allied 
to, if not the same us, 7’. spicata. I have seen no specimen, and the description 
furnishes no distinguishing character.
