Bentham (in Journ. Linn. Soc. xix. p. 39, and in Gen. Plant. iii. p. 1099) says :— 
“Nearly twenty species have been published, of which five appear to be quite distinct ; 
two out of these (H. distachya, H. B. K., and E. grandiflora, Trin.) are endemic in 
America, the third (£. trichopus, Hochst.) in Africa, the fourth (#. villosa, Kunth) in 
Eastern Asia; all the rest (Z. punctata, H. annulata, &c.) are reducible to varieties of 
E. polystachya, H. B. K., a species that is very widely dispersed in tropical and sub- 
tropical regions of both hemispheres.”
