CEYLON; frequent near Kandy, Gardner, Thwaites, &c. 
Doubtfully distinct from Æ. Notoniana (ex Thwaites Enum, 208); but seems well 
separable by the long and remarkably aeuminate calyx-lobes; the pubescence also is 
often stellate. . 
3. K. ampliata ; leaves glabrate, calyx subequally 5-winged lobes as 
long as the tube lanceolate, bracteoles persistent conspicuous.

Calyx (in fruit) 4 in., broadly cylindric. Capsule and seeds nearly as of K.
