CEYLON ; south parts of the island, common. . . 
Stem 2-3 ft., rather slender. Leaves 21-4 in., the petiole quite continuous from 
the blade and stem. Racemes numerous, lateral, ascending ; pedicels j-3 in. Flowers 
yellow. Fruiting calyx 4-3 in.— Miquel refers Vahl’s S. camphorata to A. ceruleum ; 
but its yellow flowers and country both indicate its being 4. camphoratum. 
5. A. malabaricum, Hook. f.; densely glandular-tomentose, leaves 
subsessile oblong-ovate subacute serrate, flowers sessile in foliaceous elliptic 
entire bracts, upper fruiting sepal lanceolate, the others subulate-lanceolate. 
MALABAR, Wight. 
Stem 8-12 in., stout, sparingly branched, leafy throughout its length, the leaves 
gradually passing into bracts. .Leaves lin., narrowed into a very short petiole, 
margin entire below the middle. Bracts, lower $, upper } in. Calyx } in. a little 
longer than the capsule. 
6. A. capitatum, Benth. in Gen. Pi. ii. 949; stout, erect, glandular- 
villous, leaves shortly petioled ovate or oblong subacute serrate, flowers s 
axillary whorls and dense cylindric villous spikes or globose heads, sepa' 
lanceolate, upper largest. Stemodia capitata, Benth. in Bot. Reg. under 
t. 1470; Wall. Cat. 3996. Pterostigma spicatum, Benth. Scroph. Ind. 21.

Western India, —DisTRrB. Malaya, Burma, China. 
Stem 1-2 ft. Leaves often reflexed, 1-2 in., base cuneate ; petiole hardly any. 
Heads or spikes 3-4 in. long, involucrate by floral leaves. Flowers blue, densely 
packed; bracts linear, hardly exceeding the flowers. Calyx 4 in. long, villous wit 
long hairs, 4 longer than the ovoid capsule.— The specific names of (Erinus) bilabiatus, 
Roxb., and (Stemodia) capitata, were published in the same year. 1 give the preference 
to Bentham, who placed the plant approximately in the right genus. 
7. A. microcephalum, Hook. f., slender, glandular-hairy, leave 
small shortly petioled ovate or elliptic subacute serrulate, flowers usually 
capitate, heads small axillary and peduncled or interruptedly spicate, sepals
