APOCYNACEAE. — TRACHELOSPERMUM 339 
This variety seems to be connected with the type by forms like Oldham’s No. 
329, and it needs further observation. In Henry’s No. 1370 the coma of the seed 
is twice as long as the seed, while in the type, as far as I have seen, it seems to be 
scarcely longer than the seed.

SIAM. Chiangmai: Doi Sootep, alt. 600 m., A. F. G. Kerr (No. 1133, 
type, ex Craib). 
I know this species only from the author’s description according to which it 
seems to differ from T. gracilipes Hooker f. only in its longer sepals. I believe 
the Siamese plant is very near T. borneanum Boerlage, Handl. Fl. Nederl. Ind. 
IL. 400 (Borneana) (1899), the type of which is Parechites borneana Miquel in 
Versl. Med. Kon. Akad. Weten. Afdel. Nat. VI. 193 (Nov. Gen. Apoc. Ind. 3) 
(1857) from Borneo. Miquel’s description agrees well with that of Craib.

INDIA. East Bengal: “ Khasia and Jynthea Mts," T. Lobb (Type, ex 
Hooker f.). 
According to Hooker's short description this species is characterized by ^ throat 
glabrous, anther-tips exserted." It belongs to the group formed by T. divaricatum 
K. Schumann, T. siamense Craib and T. borneanum Boerlage mentioned above.

A well-marked species which apparently is closely related to T. tetanocarpum 
Schneider, but this species has larger flowers, longer leaves and longer seeds, with 
a coma only a little longer than the seed. The type of T. lucidum was collected by 
Wallich in Nepal and seems to be No. 1675 of his Catalogue.
