marked, Gaylussaccia sp., Griff. Itin. Notes, 84, n. 1217. G. incurvata, 
Griff. Ic. Pl. Asiat. t. 506. G. serrata, Griff. Itin. Notes, 97, and n. 604 in

Buoran and Kuasra Mrs. ; alt. 83-7000 ft., Griffith, H. f. & T., &e. 
Branches stout, hirsute towards the extremities. Leaves subsessile, 4 by 11 in., 
acute, base obtuse or rounded, coriaceous, rugose with impressed nerves, margins 
often recurved. Peduncle $ in.; pedicels 2-13 in., hairy or glabrescent; bracts jin. 
Calyx-lobes in early flower i in., lanceolate or scarcely triangular; in early fruit 
enlarged, elliptie or ovate, foliaceous, overlapping at the margins, appearing decurrent 
down the young fruit and produced beneath it; in ripe fruit again less prominent, 
triangular, scarcely overlapping. Corolla $ by } in., tubular, shortly lobed, glabrous, 
white or rose, with red transverse V-shaped marks. Berry 4 in. and more, widely 
hemispheric, 5-ribbed, hardly 5-gonal, 
9. P. Listeri, King ms. ; leaves elliptic-oblong acute subentire glabrous 
not rugose beneath, corymbs small very short-peduncled, corolla small rose-red. 
Burotan; Duphla Hills, alt. 7000 ft., Lister. 
Branches stout, angular towards the extremities. Leaves subsessile 3} by 1} in., 
obtuse, shortly cordate at the base, nerves (primary and secondary) elevated on the 
upper surface. Peduncles from beneath the leaves, 4-4 in.; pedicels 2-3, } in.; 
bracts j; in. Calyx-lobes } in., broadly elliptic, obtuse iu bud. Corolla (in bud) ZA 
in long.—Closely allied to P. rugosum and as though a starved form of it with 
depauperated corymbs and small flowers ; but the texture and nervation of the leaves 
give it a widely different appearance. 
4. P. flavum, Hook. f. in Bot. Mag. t. 4910; leaves elliptic acute sub-. 
entire or slightly crenate glabrous or silky on the midrib beneath, pedicels 
densely fascicled hardly corymbose, corolla yellow. 
BuorawN; Duphla Hills, Nuttall. 
Branches round, pubescent towards the extremity. Leaves 34 by 14 in., rounded 
at the base, coriaceous, rugose, obscurely crenate; petiole {4 in. Pedicels $ in. 
pilose, thickened upwards, densely fascicled on very short spurs; bracts } in., lanceo- 
late; pedicels and calyx-tube corolloid, yellowish (in the Kew picture) Calya-lobes 
in flower 3 in. elliptie-lanceolate, striate, pilose. Corolla 2 by 4 in. tubular, 
inflated in the middle, shortly lobed, pubescent without, yellow. Berry 4 in. diam, 
and upwards, crowned by the spreading narrowly lanceolate acute calyx-teeth. 
5. P. Hookeri, Clarke; leaves elliptic acute crenate or serrate gla- 
brous or hairy on the midrib beneath, pedicels fascicled or hardly corymbose, 
corolla yellow. 
Sixx ; alt. 5-8000 ft., J. D. H., Treutler, &c., frequent. Buoran; Nuttall. 
Intermediate between P. rugosum and P. flavum ; the dried examples are (from the 
serrated leaves) always arranged under P. rugosum, but the corolla is a clear yellow 
or (when young) a greenish-yellow. The calyx lobes in the buds are larger and more 
obtuse than in any flowering or fruiting example of P. rugosum; the pedicels are 
subfaseieled ; nevertheless, it appears really more allied to P. rugoswm than to P. 
flavum,
