490 LXXX. CAMPANULACER. (C. B. Clarke.) [Wahlenbergia. 
Corolla 4-% in., campanulate, deeply divided into broad oblong lobes, blue. Capsule 
4 in., tapering into the peduncle. Seeds ellipsoid, compressed, sublentieular, smooth. 
—W. agrestis is nearly glabrous with linear leaves ` W. indica has even the uppermost 
leaves very hairy ; W. dehiscens is a weak small annual with broad obovate petioled 
thin leaves; W. marginata has the leaves with white thickened margins and a rigid 
habit. Some examples (in flower) are of the first year; other examples have a very 
woody base whence spring numerous annual shoots,

leaves elliptie subentire, peduncles solitary axillary leaf-opposed, calyx-teeth 
oblong herbaceous lax in fruit. Campanula? peduncularis, Wall. Cat. 7139 ;

Kumaon ; Blinkworth ; Chaur, alt. 6700 ft., Strachey & Winterbottom. 
Stems 3-8 in., weak, little divided. Leaves opposite or (especially the upper) alter- 
nate, 3-3 by 1 in., shortly petioled. Peduneles 1-2 in. Corolla 4 in., divided nearly to 
the base into narrow-oblong segments. Filaments dilated, pilose below. — Stigmas 3, 
linear-oblong. Capsule ẹ in., tapering into the peduncle. Calywx-teeth d A in., oblong 
from a triangular base. Seeds ellipsoid, slightly compressed, smooth.—The leaves 
beneath and the calyx-tube are somewhat glaucous.

Erect, 1 ft., much and patently branched. Leaves 3—3 in. diam., glaucous beneath; 
petiole ġ in. Peduncles 1 in., thickened upwards in fruit, — Calya-teeth 4-4 by 4; in. 
Stamens 5, free; filaments dilated at the base. Capsule 4 by 4 in., horizontal or 
cernuous, elongate-obconie, tapering into the peduncle, 3-celled, prominently 10-ribbed ; 
conical superior beak } in., loculicidally 3-valved. Seeds oblong-ellipsoid much com- 
pressed, without a trace of the reticulation of the testa seen in Codonopsis,—The 
examples are good, but in late fruit; the corolla appears to have been lobed nearly to 
the base, The species is exceedingly like Codonopsis thalictrifolia, Wall., and the long 
superior conical beak of the capsule also is very like Codonopsis, but the elongate 
obconie capsule and the seeds are very different. 
5. LEPTOCODON, H. f. § T. (not of Sond.).

anthers oblong, free. Ovary j-inferior, obeonic, 3-celled, conical upwards, 
Style long, cylindric ; stigma ovate, hairy, of 3 suberect oblong lobes. Capsule 
a double cone; the upper free cone elongate, loculicidally 3-valved. Seeds few,
