2. D. affinis, Wall. Cat. 1311; prostrate, often rooting, leaves potioled

Stems 6-24 in. much branched, pubescent or glabrate, more or less 3-angled, 
Leaves }-} in. diam., denticulate. Corolla à-3 in. Capsule d-1 by 4-2 in., not 
tapering to the pedicel. Seeds ellipsoid, narrowed at both ends, distinctly trigonous, 
—The Ceylon examples are L. hirta, Wight mss., and agree closely with the Javan; 
they are mixed by collectors with Z. zeylanica, var. Walkeri, which they somewhat 
resemble; but the leaves are distinctly pubescent and seeds different. 
Van. Lobbiana (sp.), H. f. & T. in Journ. Linn. Soc. ii. 28; leaves 2 in., corolla 
y in.—Khasia Mts, Lobb. The fragment on which this species is founded has the 
leaf hardly longer than in some examples of L. affinis, but the corolla is much larger, 
and may indicate a distinct species, 
3, L. terminalis, Clarke; pubescent, ascending, leaves short-petioled 
ovate upper narrower sharply toothed almost bracteiform, pedicels very long

A slender, suberect, annual, 6-10 in., branching, not rooting. Leaves 1-3 in. diam., 
dentieulate; upper oblong, incised. — Prdiecls, mostly from the upper axils, 3-5 times 
as long as the bractiform leaves, so that the inflorescence appears as a lax terminal 
corymb, Corolla fin. Capsule } by } in., not tapering to the pedicel. Seeds sub- 
spherical, distinctly trigonous. 
Var. minuta; 1-2 in. high, leaves and flowers smaller.—Sikkim Terai; Phansi- 
dowa, Clarke. Both L. terminalis and its var. minuta have probably been passed 
by collectors for Cephalostigma, which they simulate closely,

or nearly naked. Leaves 4 by d in, entire or sparingly toothed. Corolla 1-1 in. 
Capsule 3-2 in., nearly orbicular. Seeds ellipsoid, distinctly trigonous.—Kurz's notes 
on this plant are misleading. Ife assumes from its locality that it must have been 
Griffith's n. 429 (Notul. iv. 281), and hence tries to make his diagnosis square with 
Griffith’s description which refers to £L. trigona, Roxb.
