. This species seems most nearly related to L. conferta C. B. Clarke, which differs 
in its straight, undivided branches, in its larger, ternate leaves with the veins 
diverging at right angles, and in its many-flowered cymes on peduncles about, 10 
cm. long. The flowers of C. conferta are not known and may show further differences.
