Guerke in Engl. Jahrb. xxii. 144, distinguishes a form (pilosa) which differs 
from the type in its greater hairiness, especially on the calyx, the ribs of which 
are furnished with rather long hairs. The specimen cited by him (Rehmann, 
7374, from Kar Kloof, Natal) we have not seen. Typical L. laxifolia is less 
hairy than the other specimens referred to above. : 
13. L. Weste (Skan); stems apparently herbaceous, weak, 
scarcely furrowed, at least in the upper part, densely covered with 
very short greyish recurved hairs; leaves ovate-deltoid, 1—2} in. 
long, 3-2 in. broad, obtusely acuminate at the apex, broadly cuneate 
at the base, coarsely crenate-dentate except at the entire base, 
somewhat thinly covered above and more densely beneath with 
short adpressed greyish hairs, rather thin ; lateral teeth 1}—3 lin. 
long, up to 34 lin. broad; terminal tooth narrowly deltoid, up to 
5 lin. long; petiole slender, }-2 in. long, densely grey-pilose ; 
whorls solitary, relatively small, up to about 30-flowered in specimens 
seen; bracteoles subulate or linear, up to about 5 lin. long, 
spinescent ; pedicels up to } lin. long; calyx 7 lin. long, densely 
and very shortly pubescent, with slightly longer hairs on the nerves ; 
teeth usually 10, all subulate or the uppermost sometimes deltoid, 
spinescent ; uppermost tooth 14 lin. long; other teeth rather 
regular, }-? lin. long; corolla deep orange-yellow, up to 1} in. 
long ; tube up to 9 lin. long ; upper lip up to 9 lin. long ; lower lip 
4 lin. long.

Near L. laxifolia, MacOwan, but the plant is more hairy, leaves smaller and 
less pete pedicels much shorter, calyx shorter and usually with 10 less unequal 
teeth. 
Imperfectly known species. 
14. L. Bachmannii (Guerke in Engl. Jahrb. xxii. 143); stem 
simple, 3-64 ft. high, pubescent ; leaves ovate-lanceolate, 1}-2 in. 
long, 3-1 in. broad, acute or acuminate, narrowed at the base,

eoles subulate, spinescent ; pedicels 14—2 lin. long ; calyx 84-10 lin. 
long, puberulous or almost glabrous outside ; teeth 8, the uppermost 
only slightly larger than the others, all ending in a short strong 
rigid spine ; corolla orange-yellow.
