— Calceolaria andina belongs to a small group of the ex- 
tensive genus called Rugose by Bentham, which includes 
about seven species, all natives of Chili. The group is (not 
very well) distinguished from its allies by being undershrubs 
rather than herbs, with ragose-toothed leaves narrowed 
into the petiole. OC. rugosa (probably the same as U; 
integrifolia, Murray) figured at t. 2523 of this work is a 
member of the group, and Bentham refers doubtfully to 
it C. alba, Ruiz and Pav., figured at t. 4157. C. andina 
differs from all the others in the broad depressed lower 
lip of the corolla which is concave above and convex be- 
neath, There is a very poor figure of a small-flowered 
state of it in the Botanical Register, under the name 
of C. Herbertiana var. parviflora, published in 1833, where 
It is stated by Lindley that it was raised from seed 
collected in the neighbourhood of Valparaiso by Cuming, 
and that it flowered in the garden of the Comte de 
Vandes. It is a common species in the Chilian Andes, — 
and has been collected by many travellers i-th
