I am indebted to Mr. H. Colebrooke for the drawing and description of this truly superb but most fiercely 
stinging plant. All the green and tender parts, and particularly the pod, are furnished with loosely adhering long 
and stiff rufous or fulvous bristles, which easily penetrate the skin and create an intolerable itching and irritation.
